Jingthing Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Masks become useless when wet. You either have Sonkran or you don’t. There is no Songkran where you're masked, socially distanced, and miming water throwing. If this actually is allowed to go ahead people will get a "release" alright. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bkk Brian Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 (edited) Interesting, in the other Bangkok paper, Thiravat Hemachudha one of the directors of Chulalongkorn University was expressing his concerns about the decision to allow the festival to go ahead and also directly disputed the official figures of the 2 digit positive cases given daily by the CCSA. Citing 100 cases at just one plant in Samut Sakhon that have not been included. Edited March 4, 2021 by Bkk Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post seasia Posted March 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 4, 2021 Depressing news, hope it doesn't happen. I used to live in naklua where there was 1 big day , just stayed in that day and a little bit either day beside. Now centrally located in soi bukhao where it has been manic in the past. I guess I'll just stay in a few days and let the idiots & thugs get on with it. Time to load some food delivery apps. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post spidermike007 Posted March 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 4, 2021 The great and benevolent leader has already insured happiness. Now, he is showing the vast purity of his heart, by allowing the people to celebrate, and have some fun. He is lowering unemployment. He is growing the economy. He is doing everything in his power to open the country up again, and increase tourism revenue. He is increasing exports. He is abiding by all of the terms of the ASEAN charters he signed, and allowing the duty free importation of all beer throughout ASEAN. Bintang, Beer Lao, Bia Saigon, Bia Huda, Bia Ha Noi, Dagon, Saigon Special, 333, are on all of the supermarket shelves as we speak. We are not longer subject to the very low quality local beers, as promised in the recent ASEAN charter, that Thailand agreed to and signed. He is making visa policy easy, simple and streamlined, and all tourists are very happy about that. He is working on the attitudes of government workers, and making sure they are open and friendly to both tourists, and ex-pats. He is improving traffic and public safety. He is working day and night to eliminate the air quality issues, that have become a catastrophe for the nation. Corruption is being eliminated, and innocent fall guys are no longer getting charged for murder, and being put to death. The taxi mafia on Samui and Phuket have been eliminated, and tourists can now get a taxi at a fair price. They are also adding multiple options of cheap public transportation on the Southern islands. Life is better for all now that this great man is demonstrating his genius and vision on a daily basis. All he cares about is the welfare of his own people, and the happiness of both tourists and the ex-pat community. He contemplates this day and night. 4 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good news for the undertakers who will make a fortune out of the many deaths. Now the bookmakers will be able to add another option to their guess the number of dead people wager. 1. Death from car crash 2. Death from Covid Super spreader events. Thailand is going to be open just in time for the Covid virus variants that are more infectious and deadly than the original Chinese version. The China vaccine they are betting on won't protect the people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By all means limit it to defined areas (which I could avoid) - but there is nothing "fun" about having a bucket of (dirty) water thrown over you as you try and get home with your shopping. If you don't like the festivities do your shopping before and stay home nobody tells you to come out during these days . You know there is 1 week a year of this and then you will not see it for another year . If you can't stand that you shouldn't have come to this country in the first place , it's their new years celebration . 1 1 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One day of agressive <deleted> for a celebration is already a crazy notion, let alone 3 to 9 days. You might like having to think about what to wear, get your goggles, protective case for your phone, money, make sure you keep smiling when some idiot throws dirty cold water with ice in your face and let's hope you don't get an eye or ear infection or worse. Don't drive a motorbike and if you want to keep your car clean, forget that as well. All other 194 countries in the world don't do this, maybe Thailand is a little crazy ? And yeah you can have some critism to society if you live here and contribute. Songkran is dangerous nonsense. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
