darksidedog 55405 Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 Predictable, but still thoroughly disgraceful. I can't wait to hear how the logic for extending again isn't actually about continued oppression of dissent. No cases here for seven weeks and still the pretense that emergency powers are needed. I expect widespread protests about this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anna Rak 355 Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 Not to be cynical, but there might be a suspicion that the government was behind the non violent demonstrations at the weekend so as to have an excuse to extend the E.D. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

By letting in millions of Chinese to spread the Wuhan Flu before it became known as Covid Sars2 2019 so the population had herd immunity before it went world wide ? By closing Bangkok and letting millions of workers go home to spread it just in case it wasn't spread enough. By declaring a state of emergency, imposing a curfew,closing the beaches and banning the sale of alcohol. Causing millions to become unemployed all for 58 people who have sadly died about the same amount of people who die every single day on the Thai roads ( even with all those measures in place ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
