Cake Monster Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 Have this load of Numptys not realized yet, that Covid is not just down to Migrant Workers. There are 100,s of thousands of Thais running about all over the Country on a Daily basis spreading the Disease. The Migrant Workers are predominantly located in one area for their Job and Living. OK ! . they may have clusters, but the actual spread is caused by Thais trying to make a decent living. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from the fact that this is total BS deflections What is with these people always blaming a Nationality for anything? It is a nondiscriminatory virus it cares not who it infects Lastly Covid has been in full force within Thailand since early 2019 Just because they didn't test for it they think they were untouched till now? Realize the worst has actually passed same as all countries & get on with governing your country's recovery Try 2020. As for feeding the camp inmates plenty of Soi dogs to go around.

Stargeezr Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 I am glad that I am not one of the unmentionable rich elites, who watch the military junta, stumble along trying to be the government of Thailand. Is it not embarrassing? Just my observations. Geezer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burma Bill Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 11 hours ago, webfact said: Thailand will close hundreds of construction sites How about Slaughter Houses as well??? Being reported this morning here in Cambodia:- Thailand has reported that Nakhon Pathom had a new cluster of five cases at a slaughterhouse in Samphran district involving imported cases. Of the 31 imported cases, 28 were reportedly from Cambodia, including 17 illegal returnees. The illegal returnees were suspected to be daily paid workers who could not afford quarantine costs nor quarantine itself as it would affect their daily wage livelihood. Others were from Russia, Malaysia and Myanmar. https://www.khmertimeskh.com/50881581/thai-returnees-including-illegals-among-28-from-cambodia-detected-with-covid-19-infections/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caldera Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 Locking all the workers in for one month without being able to work sounds quite cruel to me, they will go bonkers and probably won't get paid. They should have prioritized vaccination team visits instead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retsdon Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 So if any worker hasn't had Covid before, he'll surely have got it by the time he gets out. Sorry, but there's something sinister about trapping people into contracting a life-threatening disease because their passports are the wrong colour. The dark underbelly of Thailand is getting revealed here... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would suggest however, that it is the dark underbelly of the ruling class of Thailand, which (the ruling class) are a very different group to the general population.

holy cow cm Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 Sounds like the idea came from what the Chinese did to the Uyghurs. No human rights violations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connda Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 From a human rights perspective this sucks. Why not seal off every village in Thailand. But no. Concentrate on enclaves of migrates. Thais - Clean Foreigners - Dirty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banging up construction workers only and not Thais in general when covid is rampant in Thai society is ridiculous. If its not the foreigners , its the migrant workers. Only other people I guess they can blame in the poor. Don't worry, the labor minister has said that they will make sure no one leaves, I wonder which minister will make sure no more come in! Which police departments will be responsible for tracking down the people that smuggled workers in with Covid-19, and who will prosecute these criminals and employers, maybe the guys on the Red Bull boys case would be the top team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piscis Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 As far as i read Bangkok Post, the closure of the Camps is just one action the government will do. Where can i find the complete "lockdown light" actions they plan to implement? They mentioned "travel restrictions" - however, no complete "travel ban"... Somebody knows what kind of travel will be possible during the current planned actions? Thanks! John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
