Yay, for Indonesia ......... boo, for Thailand .........

 

"In Indonesia, more than 2,500 foreign tourists were stranded in Bali, the most famous of the country’s more than 17,000 islands. The government has granted all tourists automatic visa extensions, a move made after long lines formed at immigration offices.

 

Visitors to Thailand haven’t been so lucky. Hundreds of tourists seeking visa extensions were crowded Friday under a row of awnings next to a makeshift immigration office that’s been set up on the outskirts of Bangkok after throngs formed at the main building. There wasn’t enough room for the tourists to keep their distance and stay in the shade so most were pressed up almost against one another."

Do not forget either that many tourists are unconscious or have an oyster brain in the cranium.
When they are stuck in March, they are generally gone in February or even at the end of that month;
So they know that they we will risk having some problems if the situation worsens.
and that's what happened.
I don't pity them at all; they knew they were going through a lot of trouble but that didn't stop them from leaving.
Let them ask themselves now.
