Either all measures have not been extenbded or the last 2 rticle re incorrect. Which is it? Sheryl I feel very unsafe when you are confused haven't you considered also that the Thailand governments data on the spread of this virus doesn't match with their actions across the country How many tests have they actually carried out now - 50k in 120 days They did a random antibody test sample of 3000 people in New York and have discovered that at least 25% of the population have been infected The other point that stands out is - CV-19 doesn't actually kill people - it is a Co-infection/condition that is primary, the conclusion being that healthy people do not die of CV-19 How many people in Thailand have died from these other infections/conditions and no link has been made to CV-19 - my guess would be a huge number 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sammieuk1 Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Not sure of the rational of a booze ban other than the PM wants recipients of the 5000bt to remember who gave it or he fears a drunken mob from those who got nothing ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole covid virus ordeal plus lockdown is stressful enough, but this constant changing of plans, making new proposals only to change them the next day, issuing additional bans, proposing to lift them on such and such a date only to change that again is simply too much. Their incompetence is make the whole situation unbearable (for me at least). Think before you speak. Agree on a course of action before you make it public and then stick to it! 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rules will be changed to ensure that this group stay in power. Without wanting to take the thread off course. The answer is yes, those who support these dinosaurs, are like there erstwhile politcial name sakes are dying off due to old age, so their voter base is shrinking. I think the youth are far more savvy and determined than most on TVF give them credit for, and as we saw with the momentous result of FFP in the last election (which scared the pants of the establishedment who were completely broadsided by the 8 million odd votes FFP got) despite is dissolution, their voter base still remains strong and will vote along similar lines next time. Give the governments shocking handling of the social and economic fallout of co-vid 19, I can see PTP taking back many of the votes they lost and people deserting the coalition parties like rats off a sinking ship. I may be wrong but i think PPP and Prayut have blown is spectacularly - added to this the internal power struggles in PPP with Prawit being lined up to leader of the party, and unsurp Utamas, that party itself could well fracture and splinter along power cliche lines as the places at the trough are rearranged. The dinosaurs are looking to the sky and the asteroid is getting closer. Anyway back to topic - Advice to the PM - Damage limitation advice - make beer available. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is they are working on the theory that if they don't actually tell anyone that the ban is extended then no one will notice.... I agree with your second sentence however, personally, if I may, I’ll replace your first sentence with the following: ”I think they are clueless.” 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dinsdale Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 Until further notice guys. That's what it says. This is truely insanity on a grand scale. On the one hand they brag how well Thailand has done with the virus yet do this. This needs to get into the international media. One things for sure the majority of Thailand that hates Prayut now really, really hate him. Next election will be 20+ yrs from now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
