Aspaltso Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 very childish action to do something like that. The world's greatest source of new tourists, and their behaviour. Oh, what the rest of us have to look forward to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tantamount to nothing like HIV, you can not get HIV from kissing. Coronavirus is more like the flu but with lower death rate. Italy has it more than anywhere in Europe, my guess is that their way of greeting is a handshake and kisses which guarantee the bad outcomes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China Is that one of the world oldest, continuous, and long lasting civilization which is now the world second largest economy? The reason that the US is the first largest economy because it has Hollywood. Nothing else can make people believe that a country with several trillions of debts which they said they can never repay, and Dollars with no gold standard backing, can keep spending and still call itself the first economy in the world. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirineou Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 1 hour ago, Mansell said: These things seem to happen quite often. Why can’t they just move everybody off the plane into a secure area with toilets? Stupidity. A planes toilets will quickly back up and food and drink will run out. It seems some airports are run by morons. Seven hours locked in a cigar tube.....ridiculous. I am sure Thai Air would like nothing better than to disembark their passengers and proceed to their next destination. If what you suggest was not happening there must had being a reason. I am sure the pilot crew must had explored all available options. You don't become an airline pilot by being stupid. I realise sitting in a plane for seven hours can be very stressful, but not only for the passengers. I am sure it is no walk in the park for the crew also, and very costly for the airline. The passenger's behaviour was unreasonable and inexcusable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spock Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Seven hours on a stationary plane after a long flight would be unbearable. I am not sure how restrained I would be in the circumstances. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that's what one can say ,Absolutely plain Stupid to have people wait for Seven Hrs. They should have their screening better together than that. I would've got off the plane after 30 min ,no matter What. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmericanSafety Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 It shows you how myopic the Thai Tourism Authority is. They look solely at number of people entering the Kingdom and say that the Chinese are the most desirable. ANYONE, that is in the tourism industry knows that the vast majority are in tour groups, that go to Chinese owned hotels, get bused by Chinese owned tour guides and dine in Chinese owned restaurants. Very little of that $ is making its way to the local Thai economy. Ask ANY small business owner how may patrons of theirs are Chinese and you will find that on average, very few. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sheep love "Fear Porn" so that's exactly what the media gives them. The mass buying of toilet paper triggered by the media is their way of mocking the brainless sheep, the joke is that if the economy shuts down completely then food wont be on the shelves and the sheep wont be eating and if the sheep aren't eating then the sheep aren't s**ting and if the sheep aren't s**ting then why would they need toilet paper. Of course the economy wont be shutting down though many draconian laws shall be past out of the fear that it will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jane Dough Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 That's nothing. I coughed in SCB this morning to get the attention of the woman behind the counter. The bank had shut down it's operations by 3pm and I was in quarantine. Thank goodness there was no panic. Rooster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed but, was the airline staff responsible? Hell no! They must have been even more <deleted> to have to be stuck on board babysitting for seven hours! The spitting Chinese woman should have been arrested immediately upon disembarkation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the little golden things pouring out of an infected cell that it's hijacked the cell replication function by inserting its own DNA in there.
