mrfill Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Once they finish their campaign and end up with 365 public holidays, at least they won't have any unemployment. An economic masterpiece 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khun Paul Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 On which of those EXTRA holidays are the Main Banks shut, as if not shut no impedance of transferred funds, but if shut another logistical nightmare to get your money from abroad 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just surprised they hesitated to add Friday 16th to make a nice 9 day(!) Songkran (10 to 18) Travel madness from April 9. But be assured that in reality it will be or do you think many will be ready at the workplace on the 16th?

Isaan sailor Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Make no mistake—we know who the favored tourists are. They arrive in white busses. And follow pendants and small toys mounted on wooden rods. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, if this is an official date for 2022 and beyond ,then the Thai government is bowing to China's influence. What if more tourists from Indians and Ethiopians or Muslims will Thai government add their new year too? LOL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since there are no other holidays that week…the Hero-General and his loyal accomplishes would have time to lead the country in some truly cringe-worthy praise, worship and devotional adoration. Another opportunity to let the boss know....Thailand cares. Edited December 30, 2020 by Hayduke 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caldera Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 It would have been prudent to hold off announcing new holidays until it's clear when the next lockdown will be over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Prince77 Posted December 30, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 30, 2020 Every baht can be spent one time only, whether for an extra holiday or alternatively for something different. So as long as there is no "fresh / additional" money coming in, there is no substantial increase in economy by extra holidays, the more as many companies do not observe these extra government holidays. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soikhaonoiken Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Another great idea from this Government, don't forget where this virus originated from, so let the Chinese in to spread the virus... Oh, I forgot they will have to do 14 day quarantine, so the Chinese New year will have finished by the time to be released ???????? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtls2005 Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Maybe a stupid question, but are the four "regional" holidays also National holidays? Or are they just observed in some set of provinces associated with the regional designation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
