That will depend on 'Who he is' !

Wow I paid 160 baht per mask at a pharmacy in Thailand back in January.... so she was sitting on a cool 7million baht!

 

Oh wait those don't look like N95's nevermind.

Who does she think she is? A Government minister?

I got done for using the proper Old-English spelling too!

Yeah the government ministers are in charge of the mass deal so they don’t like thai ladies cutting in on their business TIT

You think that's a stash?  You should see the emergency spicy lobster instant noodles I have stocked for the Thombie (Thai ladyboy zombie) apocalypse!

Interesting how I saw in Makro, a few dozen people crowding around a table to try to cross infect, whilst registering and signing with their ID cards before joining another queue where they could exchange their vouchers for a pack of 3 surgical masks...

So obviously government distribution of the masks is more likely to have a very negative effect on transmission...

He's a member of the cabinet so untouchable.

I think there will be many more like her they should be named and shamed on their way to jail, many people are in need I need for my wife and we can only buy 3 at a time I hope them get distributed quickly
