webfact Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Pattaya: Thai media report crowds of Thai tourists at Jomtien Beach Thai media 77kaoded chose Jomtien for a visit yesterday and found the area packed with Thai tourists enjoying the long holiday weekend that marks the start of Buddhist Lent. Most of the tourists were family groups and sets of friends from up country locations. Picture: 77kaoded Some set up mats while others availed themselves of deckchairs on the beach. Vendors selling things on the beach welcomed the improved trade, said the media. Picture: 77kaoded Traffic was slow in the area but moving. This is the first (long) weekend after Phase 5 lockdown restrictions were eased last week.

sscc Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Huge crowd in Jomtien on Saturday and Sunday in this extra long weekend. Weather was good on those two days. Only rain in those two days was before 11 on Saturday morning. I thought Thai prefer Cha Am over Jomtien/Pattaya for beach holiday, my concept was probably wrong.

fresnoboy Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Has anyone remembered that this is airborne ? Masks and social distancing is a load of <deleted>. If you are in an area where the wind has blown the virus, you will have it on your skin, hair, clothes. This is not the Plague where the mortality rate was 80%. This is a virus with a mortality rate of 0.04, like the 'flu'. JMHO 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
