PHUKET: Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha will fly to Phuket on Thursday to preside over the opening ceremony of the Phuket Sandbox tourism scheme.

 

“We do not have any problems, and I guarantee that Phuket Sandbox will be open on July 1. I will go there too,” he told the press at Government House yesterday (June 28).

 

“Every person has to help together. If the prime minister makes an announcement, but people do not give their cooperation, nothing will work,” he said.

Presumably he's booked his travel vehicle to wave to the 'fabled tourists' as they come out of the airport ?

There will be more government officials and media there for the free lunch than tourists that for sure...

During the opening ceremony Prayut will probably start singing....I am just a lonely guy, lonely and blue, the Paul Anka song.????????????????

Because he is going to be very lonely standing there will just the handful of his minions around him.

But the announcements are many times fake, Mr Prayuth, or the they change many times.. So the people don't know where or what in to cooperate

Why do they have to ponce around so much, showing off in this way?

 

As Geofgi says above, aren't there more important things to do, than waste (probably) a whole day, congratulating oneself?

 

 

 

the first plane with officials for the red carpet...how many go with him?? That's how we make the sandbox a succes. the first 50 tourists arrived...

Yes he does have more pressing things to do. He should be deep in sensible, logical and very urgent discussions about buying/getting urgent urgent delivery of massive numbers of vaccines.

"If people not cooperate nothing will work" great job Czar, exonerate yourself.........

"The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Thai Chamber of Commerce (TCC) to launch the ‘HUG THAIS’ project"

 

HUG THAIS is the name of their project during a global pandemic where people are meant to avoid contact?

He thinks of the people as slaves , when the prime minister says jump then everybody should ask how high . And he is adressing himself as " when the prime minister is " this smug !@#$ . He's only going there because there wil be int. Media so he wants to show of that the opening of the "sandbox" on the first of Juli was a succes but when this same media will try to contact him about the rest of the failing project , he will be long gone and unavailable .

Agreed. He should stay in BKK and sort out Vaccine problems he has created.

So one more reason not to go to Phuket.

I read 'sandwich lunch' not 'sandbox launch'. Something wrong with me? lol

I can’t wait for next weeks social media posts on the sandbox, I’ve missed my daily dose of humour since Trumps demise. ????

Whooppee <deleted> dooo.

 

Quarantine, tracking bracelet, stay 14 days? I don't think so.

Is this visit going to be a bit like all the people in the UK who were on the dock saying bye bye to the

Titanic when it went on its maiden voyage?  I wonder?

Geezer

Isn't Anutin supposed to be doing that in between having showers ??

I cannot find the Phuket Sandbox law, that is meant to be published in the Thai Government Royal Gazette? Can someone that knows where it is post the link? 
 

The Thaiger says it was posted on there 0800 press release, but they posted every other link to sandbox related stuff bar that link.

He is just checking progress on his Bunker with fully vaccinated full service for when the rest of Thailand sinks into dystopia and he has to pull up the drawbridge!
