webfact Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Kalasin: "Crazy" tourists scatter in all directions as police come to spoil the waterfall party Picture: Manager A contingent of thirty police and local government officials descended on the Hat Mae Yang waterfall near the Lam Pao dam in Kalasin yesterday after complaints that a large number of people were flouting the Covid-19 regulations. Tourists scattered in all directions as the police descended on the site where the visitors were playing in the water, eating and drinking. There were families, men,women and children. Picture: Manager Many young people fled on motorcycles; others packed up their mats and belongings and headed off fearing arrest. No arrests were made - people were just warned not to congregate. Local officials said they would erect signage so that people did not congregate in the area and risk spreading the virus. Picture: Manager Manager called the people crazy in their headline. The tourists appeared to be Thai.

Because most of the so called "tourists" seems to be Thai citizens. Makes one wonder if it would have been french people, would they have asked for 50k baht in bail money then? IMO they should have been booked like everyone else. Edited May 6, 2020 by Matzzon 6 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post OnTheGround Posted May 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 6, 2020 "Crazy"tourists instead of more correct term: crazy Thai citizens on vacation.

petedk Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 If there had been any foreigners the Headline would have been "Crazy foreigners scatter...." Just like this one: Quote Koh Phangan: Cops bust seven Russians flouting virus regulations at "ganja" party It doesn't say "Cops bust seven people.."

The russians will keep us entertained, keeping alive the reputation about us foreigners. Always a new drug sex party somewhere. Next week, some foreigners who sat down on the beach again, will fill the headlines. Then another attempt murder / murder. Then foreigner jump from high floor condo. Rinse and repeat. Enjoy the headlines, and guess the actual content, before reading the full article. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometime during those two years we may find/have to acknowledge that we are in a 1945 style "Year Zero". COVID is not "licked" yet. And a new one can come along. In an era when "vectors" have become more significant that the disease they carry. Vectors = Millions of tourists (you know who) who did not have the opportunity to carry, worldwide, in the days of SARS.

Popular Post Bangel72 Posted May 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 6, 2020 Families in a wide open space, compare that to MRT, shopping, restaurants, queuing for food assistance, bank 5k or visa queues. Glad no arrests were made. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AgMech Cowboy Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 It's gotten to the point that if people are having fun then they are spreading the 'virus'. They are now providing information that the virus spreads more easily indoors. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
