Border tightened: Mandatory quarantine for everyone crossing Cambodia-Thai border after Thailand outbreak

[geovalin]

Cambodia has issued a high alert and tightened its border yesterday following Thailand reporting a  sudden spurt of 576 COVID-19 cases on Sunday which includes 516 migrant workers. The government has also directed all its citizens living along the Thai borders to take all precautionary measures to prevent getting infected with the deadly disease, especially with people commuting between the Cambodia-Thailand border.

 

Prime Minister Hun Sen on his Facebook page yesterday called on Cambodian workers working in Thailand not to return to Cambodia, as a preventive measure, at this moment in time. He said workers should continue working there and safeguard themselves against the COVID-19 virus by following the directives of the government and Ministry of Health.

 

Mr Hun Sen said their families in Cambodia should advise those working in Thailand not to return home as a safety precaution and furthermore if they returned, they would be quarantined for 14 days. He ordered authorities of seven provinces along the Thai border to tighten movements along the border stretch and also implement 14-day quarantine for Cambodian migrant workers returning home and other nationals crossing the borders.

If American, for example, would you feel the same if Trump were in power unchallenged for that amount of time?
