d2b2 Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 Meanwhile at the Hua Hin checkpoint, cars streaming in from Bangkok and police sitting in a roadside tent, on their phones and eating. No temperature check or questions. Drive straight through. Virus is bound to spread unchecked 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holy cow cm Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 Bye bye love Bye bye sweet drunkiness (again)Hello being booze-e-less (again)I feel like I want to laugh and cry (again) For me I will be well stocked up to ward off anxiety from their lack of IQ and idiotic disregard of having common sense.

Moonlover Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 What is the one thing that Thailand and every other country in the world needs? We've been told it time and time again haven't we. Herd immunity, the world need herd immunity. Are we ever going to get to the stage of herd immunity by hiding away in social isolation and hoping that Covid 19 will just 'go away?' No we are not. So here we have the first signs of break out, and the Thais are in the vanguard. Good on them. What do we want? Herd immunity. When do we want it? NOW! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Cali farong Posted May 2, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 2, 2020 I salute the Thai people for finally standing up for their right to freedom. No reason to continue lockdown and bankrupt the people. You sheeple that are afraid can stay home. Always Question Authority 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mak25 Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 (edited) I was asking a Thai how we can keep 1-2 meter distance to other people in the crowded 7-11. He laughed at me and said no need to do that. Edited May 2, 2020 by Mak25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garygooner Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 Many people try to obey the rules, some don't. It's the same all over the world. Yesterday evening went out for thirty minutes to get food. Most people wearing masks, some not, some sometimes because of phone, drinking, eating, smoking. Saw a few trucks of packed construction workers, not all wearing masks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post HashBrownHarry Posted May 2, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 2, 2020 3 hours ago, Captain_Bob said: Selfish arrogant ignorant dismissal of emergency decree, forbidding inter-provincial travel for all but necessary purposes. This kind of flaunting the rules, which were made to protect the nation, is exactly the kind of recklessness that could cause a resurgence of coronavirus. Millions are staying home and exercising social distancing, to do the right thing, but meanwhile some <deleted> think they can just do whatever they want. Bastards! Captain Bob, do you think just this long weekend people have started travelling between provinces? Well i can tell you it definately has not, there's many references to people doing it throughout this site. I will also travel next week, not concerned about check points at all. I would say within the last week the amount of vehicles on the roads and people out and about carry on with the normal lives ( as much as possible ) has increased enormously. How long are you going to remain locked up? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post skorp13 Posted May 2, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 2, 2020 This will be unpopular but i really don't see the big deal. if leaving Chonburi which boasts one of the lowest infection rates and death rates , then we do not have infected people returning home. The lockdown is set to lift as the holidays end anyways so people will be free to move about the country regardless. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post rwill Posted May 2, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 2, 2020 They have checkpoints at province borders but the police are just waving people through. The government is not enforcing it. Anyway all this lockdown, social distancing BS is just prolonging the whole thing. Better to let it run it's course and be done with it. Those saying people are selfish because they want to go enjoy themselves are being selfish themselves. Stop being afraid of healthy people. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How true: in June 2014 we had the PM hating George Orwell's 1984, with those reading it charged with 'eating a sandwich with political intent'. Yet more recently, he gave Animal Farm the thumbs up.
