Should have been fined 20k though, considering his wealth and that he should be a role model.

Role model for corruption. 

I'd like to witness him paying the,6000 baht.

The fine for the leader of the country is very low compared to the public's, which has to pay 20 000 Baht, for violating the law, so for him it should be 60 000 Baht. This is just a game played by the government, because who is running the government? It's like he's fining himself. The money will go back to him anyway. Fining people won't stop the corona-virus, it doesn't know the value of money.

They need to come up with a better solution to solve this pandemic. Imagine going to a public restaurant and being fined for taking off your mask to eat. Many people still eat in these restaurants.

I'm assuming that those wearing a mask in Thailand have no problem with their eyeglasses fogging up while wearing the mask. I hate wearing the mask with my glasses on due to the fogging,  but I'm not in Thailand and probably will not return until all the extra requirements are lifted.

But revenge will be paid.

 

Prayut is like that.

 

A few weeks in Attitude Adjustment Camp will sort this punk out.

We may hear about this guy (governor) moving to a different country soon..... Possibly Cambodia

Being a public figure that has to be a real pain in the <deleted> pretty much never being able to take your mask off.   I forsee a lot of closed door meetings, no cameras allowed.

Do you really believe this???? The photo was LATER removed, it's quite possible it was seen by quite a few citizens, so this is just to  water down the fall out. Anybody questioning why he wasn't wearing a mask, they already have their answer.

Its a Good example for the Farangs in Pattaya.. you know the ones who walk up and down the sois refusing to wear the mask because  its uncomfortable or they feel above the law since they are part of the "night" life group.  If the nations number one can be fined then so should the farangs who refuse to follow the rules designed to protect  their neighbors
