Popular Post SuwadeeS Posted June 16, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 16, 2020 First of all. Since, they make everywhere protests against racism, it really time to focus on Thailand. 2. This guy should never go to another country. Finally, why he is not tough and tell the world... "We don't like and want foreigner at all in Thailand. In any civilian country, he would be removed already. That is why Thailand is still a 3rd world country. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post CrunchWrapSupreme Posted June 16, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 16, 2020 "Quality tourists" - Chinese, IconSiam customers, five star hotel guests. "Low-quality tourists" - portly, aged, barstool warming farangs. The former fill the coffers of Thailand's elite, funding their latest real estate ventures and filling their garages with supercars. However, the latter end up supporting a much wider range of Thais, particularly those out in Issan, with their "sick buffalo" living expenses, refrigerators, motorbikes, and eventual marriages. We all know which industries the two groups are in, which is why for the face-saving Thais, they wish to promote one and deny the existence of the other. Well, why not do more to get the latter out of that unmentionable area, with better education and job opportunities? Nah. One of the benefits of being hi-so, perhaps the one they most enjoy, is that distance they maintain. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RR2020 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Thailand will not be choosy. These people seem to forget............ China loves China. Chinese need domestic tourism to support Chinese. China will not allow people to visit other countries, they will be made to visit local tourism spots in China to boost the Chinese economy. The TAT want Thais to do Thai domestic tourism and then suddenly think that the Chinese will not do the same ?????? China will not push domestic tourism and will let everyone fly around the world to boost other countries ????? I think they are in for a big surprise when they find hardly anybody comes of their "chosen few". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing more xenophobic than the majority on this forum. It would be a warped mind that did not apply restrictions to countries that failed to handle the pandemic effectively. Every evening I watch the UK news and my wife was horrified that it took a law to make people wear face masks on public transport, is it any wonder the Thais are reluctant to have people from the UK and US come here at this time. Pure common sense, nothing xenophobic in it whatsoever. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayemanomad Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 1 hour ago, Brickbat said: Anutin must be laughing at all the comments. Seriously. This guy is a powerhouse in this Admin and calls the shots. We are guests here. If you don’t feel welcome, why stay? Not taking up for him or anyone, but he’s well within his rights to “ choose”, same as other countries are doing. And tourists are free to choose whether or not to come to Thailand. I think I know which they will choose. Anutin is in for a rude awakening when his 'plan' spectacularly backfires. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarcasm alert for the hard of thinking.. I can only surmise that Anutin only picked up the phone to discuss this matter with the Chinese Ambassador after a well-stuffed brown envelope from the Chinese Embassy had landed on his desk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperTed Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 China has done an excellent job of controlling covid. Singapore has not. Of course Taiwan has done the best, but TH government pretends they don't exist. How will keeping out those 20 million potential healthy tourists help the Thai people? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnarth Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 It is like I have said for a long time Flip and Flop (the general and his health mate) have planed that after they win the next election they will tell the government that Thailand should become a province of China and Flip and Flop should be the rulers.

The next three days will be critical for Beijing to curb the outbreak as people infected with the coronavirus start to show symptoms, according to Wu Zunyou, a top epidemiologist with China's Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The earliest cases in Beijing were likely infected with coronavirus near the end of May. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
