Hi... I have to fly from U-tapo to Chiang Mai on Saturday and I have been told I have to self isolate in Chiang Mai for 14 days. Can anyone confirm if this is true?  Thanks for any help

It appears a 14 day is required.

A clear statement and one that should be welcome by all residents of the Chiang Mai Province. I wish it had been done a week or so ago.

From this morning it has been gazetted now.

But of course, "self isolation " is todays joke. Please let us know if they check

what is CM Chana? where is it, I don't see it on Google play store

And it appears to be quarantine, not self isolation, if the wording of the announcement is correct.

Maybe 'CM Chana' is the hotel Chana place in the south western corner of the old city.?

Perhaps it's the gazetted quarantine hotel.?

CM Chana is described in the announcement as an application not an hotel.

 

The only hotel on the ASQ/LSQ list is the BP Chiang Mai, but this is not State Quarantine so they may have other arrangements.

Oh, for goodness' sake.  See here:  https://www.thaigov.go.th/news/contents/details/37950

 

Government Spokesperson Anucha Burapachaisri disclosed that Prime Minister and Defense Minister Gen. Prayut Chan-o-cha, in his capacity as head of the Center for COVID-19 Situation Administration (CCSA), expressed concerned over the wellbeing of people, especially migrant workers and vendors who have been in close contact with the workers, as well as the public, following the new wave of COVID-19 outbreak.

CCSA strongly advises everyone to use “Mor Chana” application, developed by Ministry of Digital Economy and Society, together with a group of Thai experts, to track the infection, probability and risk of COVID-19 and observe the outbreak situation from the data provided via Bluetooth and GPS. This application also assists medical staffs, Government agencies, as well as the public, in taking care and protect themselves from the spread of COVID-19.

“Mor Chana” application can be downloaded at https://morchana.app.link/download, as well as from the Google Play Store for Android devices and the iOS App Store.

 

The question was "what is CM Chana?"

 

Mor Chana is widely known amongst people in Thailand I would reckon, even if not widely used.

Just to clear it up is it OK to stay at an apartment that i have rented already or do I have to stay at an official hotel?

Forget it.  You're not going anywhere now as U-Tapao is closed until the end of January as it's in a red zone.  CHonburi is in a 'Quasi lock down' by order of Prayut in the Royal Gazette.
