lavender19 Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 Money,money ,money. This country has become obscene with its fixation on tourists money. Until they can start a serious vaccination policy.( Which is not not going to happen anytime soon until the top man and his corrupt minions have taken their cut) No one will want to come here. And I hope people boycott the place. With the new tourist tax and the way foreigners are being treated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blumpie Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 The Maldives did this too. You should see how out of control it is there. They've been added to the growing red list. Thailand will change their minds sooner rather than later. This government is a real embarrassment with the consistent false and misleading statements. Just look at the top stories here - they all contradict each other. Just embarrassing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's 6 months away. imo it's not negativity, but more a realistic thinking Thailand is used since years to plan fantastic projects with unachievable goals, and usualy it ends in a semi failure in the best cases or a disaster in the worses There is no way most of the Thai population will be vaccinated in October, it's just impossible, The first dose of vaccine has not yet passed trough the doors of the only place of production and there is no any decent amount of vaccines coming from abroad in the next months, with the exception of few deliveries from Sinovac Even Israel, one of the most advanced countries in the world for the vaccination program, is only at 60% of the population vaccinated and they are only 10 millions. Thailand it's 70 millions of people Edited May 8, 2021 by kingofthemountain 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you look at how Thailand managed the virus from the beginning the numbers were low whether to believed or not is for another story. The measure Thailand put in place lock down, particularly not allowing flights into the country, lack of freedom the people have compared to true democracy countries it was much easier to contain. The current outbreak is well documented for anyone who can add 2+2 together we can increase the conversation and say compare it to India and so on but the truth of the matter December 2020 it was a bit over 5,000 today it is over 70,000 five months very short time to get those totals.????

zhounan Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Thailand should think about an alternative development model. In the future, it will no longer be possible to live on subordination to mass tourism. The world is moving towards another kind of society, with less anthropogenic activity. Getting our butt on a plane will likely be a privilege for a few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
