Thai prime minister fined 6,000 baht for not wearing face mask

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

Just saw news over dinner. How about arrest the rules dodger. 6000 baht is nothing to this guy.

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.
