PHUKET: National police chief Gen Chakthip Chaijinda visited the Phuket Check Point yesterday (Mar 31) to “encourage” the officers there, who have been inundated with at least hundreds people either wanting to come back home to Phuket or leave Phuket to get back home since the order to close the bridges linking the island with the mainland was issued on Sunday.

 

Joining Gen Chakthip yesterday was national police deputy Lt Gen Damrongsak Kittipraphat, with both top-ranking police officials being welcomed by Police Region 8 Commander Lt Gen Jirawat Thippayachan, Phuket Provincial Police Commander Maj Gen Rungrote Thakurapunyasiri and Tourist Police Region 3 Commander Maj Gen Kritsak Songmoonnak, among other officers.

 

“We came to encourage all officers, not only police, and to see the preparations for this tough situation,” Lt Gen Damrongsak said.

- Let's close some more stuff, so we can create HUGE queues.

- Let's make a curfew so people have to shop and queue at the same time.

- Let's think about closing down public transport, so people have to queue in line to get on these small crammed mini-vans.

 

- Thailand love their queues.

Isn't the same thing being done in lots of countries?

Most countries in Northern Europe don't allow people to stand like that in queues....

 

I would say that "Social Distancing" is better understood in Northern Europe, and that's why queuing is not a problem like in Thailand.

Thinking before acting is a good idea,except maybe here.
