Plus it seems those in control are happy to see underage, unlicensed children riding motor cycles to school every day..Can you show some light on the reason as you purport to be Thai...? Well put: ..."purport to be Thai." And sadly, he has a lot of TV members convinced! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its probably the one place the Authorities want to be Virus free in order to attract Local Tourists from within their own Borders Ah right. Because they don’t want it there it won’t happen there. Gotcha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExpatLife Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 Here is the crazy thing, Laso is literally on the border to China, and yet they have had no infected persons as of now. They also have closed many schools and have stopped Chinese flights. Yet Thailand to the South has done things very differently to the Northern cousins, and look how things are working out here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P100 Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 "there had been no cases of local transmission in Thailand." Thai authorities are simply unbelievably clever. Can someone tell them about the 2 weeks of symptomless incubation period, while contagious since day number 1 or 2.... How can these officials talk such endless nonsense without losing their stupid face? They should face immediate consequences for misleading the public! And buffalo Prayut demonstrated how safe the airport is but had around his useless head a face mask despite closed down airport by his guards. Btw they say online Prayut has now fever and has visited a hospital.... hopefully true...we pray all 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khunpa Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 Pretty amazing how Thailand, with so many Chinese tourists, can maintain a number of only 14 infected.

Elkski Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 Everyone knows Thailand cant monitor all the tour guides. Bunch of BS.

Foreign tourist? So, Thai should worry about Norwegian or Canadian tourists? <deleted> these people thinking before open their mouth? It's quite funny to see Thais wearing mask inside the elevator after see foreigners, when really it should be Westerners who should be worried that Thai people aren't sick. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That will have minimal effect on stopping the spread of this virus, because people will just book their flights to an airport in a pro China country (like Duterteland) and then book an ongoing flight to the country of their choice. The only ban that will be effective is to ban anyone with a Chinese passport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
