Popular Post snoop1130 Posted June 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 15, 2020 Thailand will be very choosy about who can visit, insists Anutin By The Nation Only countries that have not had a severe outbreak of Covid-19 will be made part of Thailand’s “travel bubble” and the Kingdom will restrict the type of travellers allowed into the country, Public Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul said on Monday (June 15). He added that guidelines on the situation will be released by the government’s Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration and clarified to the public. “I have spoken with the ambassadors of Singapore, New Zealand, China and South Korea. We have to see which nationalities Thais are happy to welcome, as well as consider the state of the economy and people’s livelihoods,” the minister said.

All races rich or poor have got virus. Those certificates, if required, will keep people out who have passports from countries where they won't issue them. That would be true for me as I'm sure doctors in the U.S. won't write bogus fit to fly certificates. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're not coming in " .. It seems to me they are putting all the chips on countries from the east two of whom have both had recent spikes in new cases .. the most recent in China .. What else is convincing the minister that droves from the countries considered " lucky " enough to find their way onto the " admission " list will be queueing to jump on a plane .. factor in airliners might end up carrying considerably less passengers the shortfall in revenue ultimately being taken up by those who do fly .. And China as is Thailand exhorting its citizens to holiday within their own country .. This has potential to go spectacularly wrong if it fails to provide what they are undoubtedly hoping for out of it .. 8 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post connda Posted June 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 15, 2020 Leave it to a billionaire to restrict travel into the country and continue to depress tourism related sectors of the economy. Anutin like his BBFs in the other leadership positions are all independently wealthy and as such probably could give a rip if that segment of the economy ever recovers. To these guys it's all control. Having the wealth to be above the poor, groveling hoards while keeping a knee on their necks economically. "We're saving you!!!" No you're not. 19 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
