Popular Post webfact Posted December 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 7, 2020 38 infections linked to Thachilek cluster recorded so far A total of 38 COVID-19 infections, linked to Thai returnees from Myanmar’s Thachilek township, have been reported so far in seven provinces, with Chiang Rai having the most at 26. Meanwhile, the army plans to use drones, equipped with live CCTV, to patrol the Thai-Myanmar border in some of the northern provinces, to help officials prevent illegal border crossings. Maj-Gen Chakrapong Chanpengpen, of the Security Emergency Situation Operations Centre, said that drones will be deployed in border areas, which are inaccessible to ground forces, adding that more road checkpoints, manned by troops, police and defence volunteers, are to be set up deeper inland, to conduct random checks.

Popular Post SoilSpoil Posted December 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 8, 2020 I guess that the price of an 'assisted' border crossing has gone up now. There are hindreds of illegal crossings a day, and not only worling girls. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post DonaldBattles Posted December 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 8, 2020 A total of 171 Thais have been repatriated from Tachilek Burma. Trying to track down and control the infected ones is extremely important. I notice that 26 are in Chiang Rai. Several are in the government hospital in Chiang Rai. The infected ones are dangerous. I am staying home until they leave Chiang Rai. Hopefully the officials can control the situation. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I don't see too many guests... The travel restrictions must be making it difficult! Although you could just use an illegal border crossing and then be an upstanding citizan by making sure you report to the authorities when you get back to conduct testing and quarantine, no harm done...

spidermike007 Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Why more effort has not been placed on border security all along, is mysterious, mind boggling and reeks of suspicion. Many boats should be patrolling the rivers constantly, looking for illegal crossings. That should be a huge priority. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
