They are just innocent stupid Thais and farang people that didn’t know any better? Ah ok. Gotcha. If someone murders another person blame the cops but put no blame on the murderer. Now I understand. Thanks for clearing that up. Stupid comment. The PM said he would take full control of the situation but has obviously lost complete control. He gambled with the lives of people in this country to help his super rich mates. Sure people spread the virus and people act irresponspibally but it's his job to try and stop the spread. The idoit did just the opposite. No need to mention the vaccine fiasco and corruption. Edited July 21, 2021 by dinsdale 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post FarangJon Posted July 21, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 21, 2021 It certainly hurts the soul not to be able to blame us foreigners. Because if the travel regulations had been different, we "Dirty Farangs" would of course be to blame for the lousy one. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangkok Barry Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 8 hours ago, tomazbodner said: It may be, and likely is true that the spread is coming from those who don't care about anyone else and put their own entertainment at the top priority, much higher than the right of others to live. But the man is Thai. He's old enough to know that in Thai culture, there is little or no planning for tomorrow, that most people live by the day and do not care about the consequences of their actions tomorrow. As such, this should have been expected, considered and included into the planning. It wasn't. And that is a huge failure on his, and government's part. Then again, when I see what's going on in the West, I don't think they are faring that much better. They have done what is demanded here from government - got hold of vaccines, for instance, available anywhere and immediately, where people have choice which they want. But... People refuse to take them and instead go for holiday to Spain. Should that have been expected? Yes, actually it should but it wasn't there either. So from a helicopter view, this pandemic has only confirmed that no matter how big the problem, unlike in the movies, the World will NOT come together as one to fight it. Instead people will become even more self-centered, claim anything that restricts their freedoms is a conspiracy, call anyone who disagrees with them "blind sheep" and blame the government for outcome. And this is in pretty much every country on this planet. Yes. It's as if nature was testing the human race and it's scored a D-. Every government and its people, some more than others, has made a total hash of dealing with the virus. Too slow to close borders, too reluctant to totally shut down all but absolutely essential services for two weeks, too many people acting as you say - believing the necessary rules don't apply to them/are an infringement of their human rights/it's only like the flu/it's all fake. I've long held the belief that the human race will manage to eradicate itself in the not too distant future, and nothing about this pandemic has made me change my mind. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CALSinCM Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 (edited) As much as Prayut is the front man, most average, normal Thai people understand this as the actual reality.

Popular Post Soikhaonoiken Posted July 21, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 21, 2021 This guy is unbelievable, and full of his own BS, how has he even got the the nerve to come out with a statement like this, to blame the people for not following the rules,, only one person didn't follow the rules Mr PM and that was you, by not purchasing vaccines, And NO... you didn't combat the 1st & 2nd wave,, Thailand just dodged the bullet, and didn't tell the truth on the amount of infections & deaths, And NO,,, the world wasn't praising Thailand over the low infections & deaths, the world was saying Thailand is covering up the real extent of the pandemic the same as India is doing right now..... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But any of them expecting they can actually change anything are delusional. To quote the PM in another context, "It is what it is".

I agree with most of what you say. There is a very big doubt with substantial scientific backing over this being a natural virus though. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garet Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Though I agree with a lot of the points here, this is unobjective journalism. If it is an editorial, than label the article as such. The article should state what Prayut said including necessary background info without including the writers opinions. Bias like this is why many people don't trust what they read anymore. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dont confuse me Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 "We brought infections down to zero and the world looked on and said what a marvellous job Thailand had done" Nope the world looked on and said, "the idiots running this country aren't testing anyone, of course the numbers are going to be low! I wonder what the infection rate per person tested is"? This man really cannot accept an ounce of failure as a direct result of his incompetence. I seriously wonder what other world leaders actually think of this idiots handling of the pandemic. When the world gets out of this mess, who is going to have any confidence investing in LoS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least a three week, stay at home dont come out, with the military in fulL PPE keeping people at home, that would also stop the border crossing. And vaccinating, and not just here, this needs global cooperation. It sounds harsh, it sound traumatic, but I bet if you ask a child what they feel would stop this global crisis, they might say its the only way. Unfortunately its the scene from science fiction, but thats the way to stop it. People just cant be trusted to do the right thing. You think it will stop the illegal border crossing that's done with the help of the army and/or high placed people and construction companies . And the people that can't be trusted to do the right thing are just those people and mr P and mr A and the rest of their goons . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazykopite Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Until this April everything was going good until a certain minister decided to allow songkran to take place what a huge mistake that was so its not the public to blame but himself for allowing this to happen so now he uses the good folk of Thailand to blame for the out breaks since April shame on him he is the self appointed leader of Covid yet he has failed miserably to ensure the Thai public are fully vaccinated yet he and his cronies ensured that they were fully vaccinated sadly the earthquake is just starting soon and it will be very soon we will see 20,000 daily covid cases and 100s of deaths due to his incompetence 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gandtee Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 'We beat the first wave, he claimed, thanks to the medical services and everyone in the country pulling together.' I doubt that. Hardly any testing was being done and Thailand didn't know how many were infected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can’t continue to lead the country when majority of the people feel that he is the problem not the solution. The best thing for him to “stand with the people” is for him and his government to resign and form a unity government and promise an early election.

Of course no one can tell the future, but you'd think with all the advisors and medical professionals giving him advice and given that he's had like 18 months or so to do something that he might have made some steps to ensuring more people had been vaccinated than the small percentage of the population. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrJ2U Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Instead of offering solutions this government continues to blame everyone and everybody but themselves. Very bad leadership qualities. Only once some of the police and high ranking families start dying of COVID-19 will people demand this inept governments ouster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
