Popular Post snoop1130 Posted March 31, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 31, 2020 DON’T lie, spread false info about Covid-19 situation, infections tomorrow, April Fool's Day By The Nation The Office of the Attorney General deputy spokesman Kosonlavat Intujunyong warned that those lying or spreading false information about Covid-19 infections on April Fool’s Day tomorrow (April 1) amid the emergency decree will face strict punishment. In many countries, people play jokes or spread fake news on April 1. Some publishers even print false reports to poke fun at readers or give them a laugh the following day. This year, however, the joke might be on you – and it could be a harsh one at that. Sharing false information or lying about the Covid-19 situation or infections can land you in prison for up to two years or you can be fined up to Bt40,000.

ParkerN Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 Every day's April Fool's Day for Thais. Nothing is what it seems, it's a rabbit-hole world as soon as you step off the plane. Still, they're happy enough. I wouldn't be if I were Thai but they seem to be, and I'm happy enough not being Thai. A change in provenance would not be welcome or necessary I don't think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dumbastheycome Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 I can agree . There are too many that would and could spread false information into a society so paranoid that it could easily provoke dangerous reaction. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoctorG Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Forgot that it was April Fools but certainly agree that the usual tomfoolery should perhaps be curtailed this year, well at least about anything virus-related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stargeezr Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 In Canada the airline Westjet, which has had some good jokes , said, not this year as the virus is no joke, and people should remember that fact. Canada has not peaked, and especially the US and New York city and other cities are still totally affected by Covid 19. Geezer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tchooptip Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Since today is April foul and it is also the subject of this article, let me take this opportunity to tell you that I have always believed firmly in everything that this democratically elected government said, in particular this first Minister of a competence rarely reached for decades by other prime ministers, and also especially my confidence in this Minister of Health who does everything in his power to defend us expats and westerners because he particularly appreciates us and he's demonstrated it several times lately!
