Phangnga and Ranong now closed

[Yinn]

Good afternoon.

 

The governor of Phangnga and Ranong use the emergency power to close Phangnga and Ranong TODAY. Not wait for 31 March.

 

People return to today will be check for temperature, if ok, can return.

 

From tomorrow if another province people want to enter, eg for work, they must have letter from doctor. They can use that for 3 day, then must return to doctor get new letter. Every 3 day must be new. 

If they stay in Phangnga/Ranong not need new letter from doctor. Only need if want everyday.

 

Ranong and Phangnga have no covid, so the rule is to stop it. 

 

Problem is Phuket, Krabi is “red”, so governor order police to block people enter Phangnga. 

 

Another problem is many Burma people go to Ranong for return to Burma. 

 

If Phangnga or Ranong person want to go Phuket tomorrow+, then must get doctor letter. 

 

Already traffic stuck a ruck a lot at Sarasin bridge. 

 

Also more business will be close, but I not want say it yet, because they still decide.

Eg Restaurant this week must reduce the number of table this week. Today will be take away only.

 

Have MOU meeting now decide everything 

 

Good luck.

right after they visit  the doctor they then get infected and show  no symptoms for  up to 14  days, waste of  time really. What they really  need is  a  fast covid  test ONLY

How do you stop zero infections? Or do they need some?

 

Another problem is many Burma people go to Ranong for return to Burma. 

 

You should be very familiar with Prachuap Khiri Khan, right?

Did you know that there's a waterfall where you only go up and you are in Myanmar?

 

 

Welcome back, Ying.

What does the letter have to say, because it won't say youre free from COVID 19 as its not possible to get a test?

 

NOt that I'm driving to Phangnga myself but if I wer, could I go to the reception at Dr Chusak's and pick up a medical certificate for 50 baht?

 

NB the border at Ranong is already closed. Lots of Burmese workers are stuck in Phuket.

The immigration border is closed. But before today the road from another province is open.

= many Burmese worker want return Burma, because no work=no money. 

They still go the “secret” way, not go immigration way. Can walk it. So road block make it difficult.

Especially from Phuket. Only one road.

Testing has been done only for those with symptoms or suspected exposure.  Which is why almost all positive cases are in hospital where is should be way less than 20% of the total that require such treatment.

Good to have you back Yinn ????

To be clear : if you want to drive in your own private car from Phuket to Krabi without stopping in Phang Nga, you cannot do it anymore  ?

You need doctor letter enter Phangnga. The rule. Can use it for 3 day.

 

if can say “I go Krabi” and enter, everybody will say “I go Krabi” 

Maybe If housebook Krabi, MAYBE can go. 

 

They just make the rule today. I not know about every detail/situation. 

 

Just post out information I know to help the TVF member.

 

sarasin bridge enter Phuket FROM Phangnga, they temperature test everyone about 4 days already. (But not when leave go Phangnga)

[Chalong circle]

That means that to cross the bridge to any destination from Phuket, you need a doctor letter...OK.

Welcome back, Ying.

 

 

I wouldn't attempt that at present though...soldiers are patrolling the border and trespassers are being handled very seriously now. In normal times, no problem.

 

Case in point, a second group of 4 Chinese nationals has been arrested for attempting to cross from Thailand to Myanmar. The first group tried to cross in the other direction. Both of these cases occurred near Mae Sot. This was after 81 Burmese were detained after trying to cross into Myanmar illegally in the same area.
