pattjock Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 "No activities in public areas" covers everything you do outside your home!! Does this mean you can not go out anymore, even to buy food? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't surprise me if they actually let the dogs out of the pounds due to lots of them dying..much better to have them roaming around the streets doing what's natural to them..shagging,biting,barking,pooing,forming packs and hunting for food. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I walked on beach road on hotel side of the road yesterday. Passed by 2 BIB, no comment from them. Beach side walkway was deserted at noon, no foreigners, very few coconuts to be seen. To avoid problems, stay clear from beach road for now, not much to see anyway. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OnTheGround Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 BIB + Tessakit + all kinds of volunteers are now on the beach walk many times a day. With resent "no activities allowed", who knows. Clarification needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Ketyo Posted April 13, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 13, 2020 Most smart countries don't throw people in jail for breaking Covid lockdown. Throwing people in jail for minor offences during a pandemic is dumb. Especially if people aren't tested beforehand. It's not good to have an outbreak in jail. Most smart countries are letting petty criminals out and others out early. Thailand hasn't realised this yet. There are stories of people been put in jail for 15 days for breaking curfew in Isaan. Again dumb. The Thai authorities might realise this in a few weeks after an outbreak in an institution. 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I go everyday for a walk on the beach and on the walkway there were a lot of people still congregating, drinking beer, particularly face Mike shopping mail on the platform or near the big picture of the king. Most of them were old farangs with no masks on the face i have seen when the big signs have been pinned on the trees 3 days ago around 7 pm. Now only few people Thais and farangs, including me, are coming here for a walk or jogging so it's more easy to respect the safety distances. Still few old farangs without the face mask. Still some ''working girls'' some with mask, some without. Untill yesterday evening no police in view. i will go again in 1 hour as usual and i will give a feedback here Edited April 13, 2020 by kingofthemountain 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dpcjsr Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Being on the beach or on the golf course have to be two of the very safest places a person could be. What is going on? Oh yeah, we know what is going but cannot say. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post kingofthemountain Posted April 13, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 13, 2020 (edited) Well has i promised i am back for an update Unfortunately you are not allowed anymore to walk on the beach and on the sideway beside the beach few agents of the municipal police (Blue uniforms) are here and ask kindly to all people to go on the other side of the road. Of course the sidewalk on this side is less wide, so it's much more difficult to respect the safe distances. I think the project is more to avoid the transformation of all the area in a big nomad camp of misery when all the Thai people unable to pay they rent are going to be thrown on the street in the next weeks Edited April 13, 2020 by kingofthemountain 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Guderian Posted April 13, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 13, 2020 Typical brain-dead overreaction, just like in the UK. How is it fine to rub shoulders with lots of strangers in a market or shop, but it's a criminal offence to swim hundreds of yards away from anybody? Laws only command respect when they make sense, and this idiocy (unfortunately like so much else emanating from City Hall) is like a scene from One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The closed order is from the 2 april. By chance it wasn't enforced untill today walking and jogging on the beach or on the sidewalk isn't an activitie at risk the risk was the few peoples (Groups of old foreigners and groups of young thais) sitting around some beers and smokings but of course it's seems to be more easy to ''punish'' all the population rather than disperse the few irreducible 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
