NoshowJones Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 8 hours ago, ctxa said: You are confusing being "diplomatic" with "being politically correct", and even being "racist". There are certain things that such a high official shouldn't say, and that includes those Tweets which you're referring to. But nevertheless, they were a truth as a temple! If you don't believe me go yourself to Central Plaza in Rama 9. Count how many Asians with their mask on the chin vs how many Westerners. Furthermore a Minister of Health doesn't necessarily need to have any experience in medicine, after all his work as a minister is to coordinate and make a huge team of experts from different backgrounds work together as efficient as possible all across the country. The Minister of Health of a country is not any sort of "Dr.House" who can cure any disease with some "magical thinking". PS: This coming from a westerner, so I can't be labeled as racist "Why has Anutin not been fired yet? He is so incompetent, has no experience in the field of health". Most of the Thai "government" have no experience in anything except soldiering, yet they are in charge of running a country. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricTh Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Oh,...oh.... There goes the prospect of opening the economy. Is this Thailand's Wuhan seafood market? Let's hope it doesn't spread to other provinces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's time to take extra-precautions, regardless of if farang next to you isn't wearing a mask. vaccine is coming...............................play it very safe the next few months, then party for the next 20-years. So the vaccine is 'one and done' for 20 years? Fascinating news. Please provide links to this new vaccine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The virus infections are due to foreign DNA entering host cells and wreaking havoc. Road deaths here are due to native DNA expressing itself naturally resulting in dangerous behavior on the roads. The master gene that expresses for 'I don't give a รhเt about killing or dying on the roads' is dominant in the native population. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, how will they manage that? The employers were supposed to pay for the migrant worker quarantine it seems without any surprise than finally it was more convenient for everyone to enter by an illegal way,no quarantine for the burmeses migrants and no cost for the Thai employers a win\win situation, until the s...t hit the fan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this report it states People can safely travel to Samut Sakhon or pass through it to other provinces.” And now 50% of those tested so far, that's 500+ have covid since that announcement 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to, but rather like staying here and out of jail. Just repeating the quote, from which can be drawn conclusions by the readers. And private thoughts can comment internally.

Coastrider Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 I hear the loss revenue will be about 1 billion Baht. How much did they save hiring Burmese w orkers over Thais now ? Maybe the plant owner should be held accountable, Hiring workers with out a visa stamp ? So many unemployed Thais..they should be forced to hire Thais first,,, or are they considered to lazy ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
