To add to their complaining about tourism being down they are now moving to not exchange foreign currency, that ought to bring the tourists flocking in! ???? Brilliant! Bravo, Skorp13!" ...they are now moving to not exchange foreign currency..." Who is the "they" that you are referring to? One bank, that's all, has decided to temporarily stop currency exchange.

Seems a little heavy handed given the allegedly very low numbers confirmed in Thailand. The numbers in Thailand, but also in many other countries, are literally manipulated to less economic damages and, maybe, don't create panic.

Your question that I ignored related to the Covid-19 testing procedure that I have no knowledge of and I didn't claim that I did have knowledge of it, in fact, I didn't mention it at all, you're the one who brought that up! That process has nothing whatsoever to do with my assertion that you have no evidence of the figures being doctored.

I don't know how many tests have been made, I didn't claim that I do know, you don't know, either, so your point is just as irrelevant as the UK's testing methods are irrelevant. And, your asking that immaterial question doesn't justify your claim that Thai figures are not correct.
