Empty bus terminal

By The Nation

 

 

Mo Chit 2 Bus Terminal, which is usually crowded with travellers heading home for Songkran, now appears to be completely empty amid the Covid-19 pandemic.

 

 

Most of the people who came to work in Bangkok usually go back to visit their families during Songkran, but because of the spread of Covid-19, the government prohibited the traditional celebration and instructed people to stay put in their residences rather than travel and risk contracting the dreaded virus.

 

 

The result of the government’s measures is a bus terminal devoid of passengers, since inter-provincial bus trips have been cut to only a few per day and people decide not to travel to play safe.

On the bright side TAT has already included that pigeon in booming fresh arrivals ????  

[Chelseafan]

Another misleading headline. I count at least 2 people and a pigeon. Hardly empty ????

 

[Skeptic7]

Hmmmm...could it be because most are prohibited from traveling and it's basically CLOSED?  

[Assurancetourix]

Positive point of the thing,
we will not see every morning on thaivisa that a coach has gone to bed in the ditch or entered the lorry  of a parked truck ...

Considering that there are almost no buses that are still operating, it's not really surprising that the bus terminal is deserted.

seems the only place where social distancing, 

is actually being seen in action... or is that see  inaction??
