phuketrichard Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Governors are shuffled around every 18 months to 2 years and are appointed directly by the Thai Cabinet. There is speculation that some ministers in Bangkok had been unhappy with Phuket’s rising Covid-19 numbers and the handling of the island’s resources, and decided now would be a good time to make a change. https://thethaiger.com/news/phuket/new-phuket-governor-announced-old-governor-shunted-off-to-petchaburi 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevenl Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I think the guy was just following national policy, with slowly slowly more restrictive measures. I do think Bangla was closed too late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agusts Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 A bit late to the show, but he can claim cleaning up Phuket, 1 case detected yesterday, 0 the day before, and they are trying hard to find a boogeyman with a virus, proactive search, door to door search, suspects close to positive patient search, you name it, no sign of the damn thing - should have come in Feb, loads of sick people then, sent home by doctors with antibiotics...!

He was the one who foolishly stated Phuket had enough reserves to get through the high season. https://forum.thaivisa.com/topic/866296-phuket-water-supply-safe-for-the-high-season-but-gov-orders-better-water-conservation/ He later ordered in the Royal rain makers as a fix for the problem.
