Thaksin will save the world.. ????????????

[bermondburi]

I'm not in Thailand, so I wouldn't know if its been in the Thai media. I asked my wife but she didn't know about it but that might not mean anything. 

 

Anyway, it was in the UK Times the other day. Thaksin and the former Leicester City boss R. I. P., invested in a UK start up called Dnanudge. They're now set to make millions as they've come up with a 90 minute C19 test. It's been described as a game hanger. Rather than waiting a day or two for results, a 90 minute wait. The UK government has placed a £160m order for around 6m tests. 

 

This could make things a lot better for all of us, and open up travel. 

 

Thank you Thaksin. Come back please.

I'm guessing not widely reported in Thailand.

All the Thai politicians have pocketed money when they have the power

2 differences however for Taksin

1\ he was already rich BEFORE to become first minister

then the pockets were already well filled, not like the actual ones

2\ Thai people have also beneficied from his policy

the help to the farmers and the hospital 30 bhts scheme are two of 

his realisations, the global poverty in Thailand has heavily decreased during

his years, for some reasons the curb is going the other way since 4 years.

 

i don't write all was perfect, but i am sure if he comes back tomorrow

most of the Thais will welcome him, The actual illegitime power know this

 and it's why the Taksins are not allowed to comeback in Thailand

Welcome to Thailand.

And he could be still super rich and in Thailand if he wouldn't have been so greedy.

More than enough money was not enough for him. He wanted more and more and more and that was still not enough.

He gave Thai farmers a few crumbs so that he could get the cake.

 

If he would not have been so greedy he could still be PM and maybe the whole country would love him.

Welcome to Thailand.

There is no reason for him to go and stay in jail

at least untill the responsibles of the military coups 

in 2006 and 2014 go first

Yes at least he knew how to rule an economy

unfortunately we can not say the same thing from the actual ones

[bermondburi]

Anyways, putting aside the Thaksin popularity contest, a 90 minute C19 test could make a big difference to anyone wanting to travel. 

 

Imagine being tested at check-in, on arrival, at home etc etc. 

 

Could make things a lot easier and reduce the need for massive quarantine or self-isolation. 

 

Let's hope this can be rolled out successfully next month like it says in the article.

You don't get it

 

the main problem was the 1% of the wealthy didn't wanted

to see the mass moving from their (slavery) poverty and becoming

a middle class, with the level up of the education, 

 

They knew that if this happens, it should be the end of the ''good old days''

for the thug elite runing the country for his own and only benefit.

 

Taksin was enough clever to understand that a middle class with few money

was the opportunity for everyone (Including him) to become richer and with

better opportunities in life, including in the perspective of an open world.

 

We know already who in this country prefer to keep the borders well closed

and protected with all the ''systems'' in place inside making Thailand looking

like a mafia clan

Did you follow all the years when Thaksin behaved like he is above the law? There must be at least 10 court cases which are still running against him and his criminal activities.

 

But it seems you didn't notice. Was that not covered on Truth TV? Or did you get the red village education?

 

It's bad enough when poor Thai farmers are uneducated. Farangs in this country should be able to get better news and don't believe everything from the red mob.

A court under the control of a junta 

taking the power after an illegal military coup

doesn't have the legitimacy to condam a politician

legaly elected but overthrown by this junta to take his place

 

[ICELANDMAN]

Thaskin lost big money now, not really the best investor out of government Thais support.

RAMAT GAN, Israel (Reuters) - A newly developed saliva test aims to determine in less than a second whether or not you are infected with the novel coronavirus, Israel's largest medical center said on Thursday. Patients rinse their mouth with a saline wash and spit into a vial.

Sheba, located just outside Tel Aviv, has partnered with the device's developer, Israeli firm Newsight Imaging, to bring the system to market.

The company said they are in the process of getting regulatory approval. Each test costs less than 25 cents and it expects the device will eventually cost less than $200.

He has been the only one in all the Thailand history to try

to make the farmers less poor and more educated, and

the only ones to put in place a social and medical netfare

i don't write all was perfect, it's far from it

but i am not going to regret his war against the drug too

Yes, I read all three articles to which the OP gave links. None says anything about a C19 test. 

 

Also an Internet search gives no results for a C19 test.

Yes, no results showing C19.

 

I have the habit of understanding a word or a phrase the way I see it written.

 

I see banana and I understand banana.

 

I see spaghetti and I understand spaghetti.

 

I see C19 and I understand C19.

 

I see si and I understand si.

 

I see ba and I understand ba.

 

I know what banana and spaghetti mean but am clueless about the meaning of C19, si and ba.

 

The search results you have given are all Covid-19. I know what Covid-19 is and I also know that Covid-19 is not C19 and that C19 is not Covid-19.

 

Try to imagine what this forum would look like if dozens of people each used their own invented silly names for Covid-19 and what the food forum would look like if the same happened there with banana and spaghetti.

 

Try to imagine that you go for a Covid-19 test because you need it for a flight and when you get the result the document says you are negative for C19.

 

Yes, I am serious.

Lighten up buddy. This is an anonymous forum on t'internet. No one is going for any tests or checking in for any flights. Seems like you're the only one with a problem here.
