Does anyone know current ongoing financial support unemployed Thais, due to Covid restrictions, are receiving from government for essential items such as food and rent?

Close private pools.....? My little one remains open sir. 

Would it not be easier to tell us what,if anything, is open?

I don't know the full details but my wife gets 1,500 from the government every so often that can only be spent at certain small stores and restaurants.

In related news.  Free noose will be available to all business owners to hang themselves starting 23 July, employees also qualify to receive one, all noose are reusable

In other words Thai government is not taking reasonable care for it's citizens impacted by Covid. Anyone know what's happening if they can't pay rent, are they made homeless?

why are they still doing the ignorant closures, such as golf courses, parks or swimming pools?

Because they are simpletons that are thrashing around pressing every single button in sight.    One day, and this day is probably several months from now after the virus has naturally peaked and starts its natural decline, they will point to these park and pool closures and believe that it was these kind of measures that got covid under control.

That is harsh.... not all golf players are ignorant.

Because this is where people congregate to socialise and drink alcohol and behave in an uninhibited manner!

Utter cads, what an example to set to the natives. 

Just great …. Pattaya has become a ghost city.  Empty streets.  Tattered For rent /sale signs on most businesses. Seems this government needs a quick fix. VACCINES !!!!!!!

I think its unrealistic to think that a golf foursome will wear masks and maintain social distancing during play or for any after play socializing. That's 4 people from 4 households that can be a vector for spreading.

been playing several times, there never was a problem with distancing.

also, there is no socialising after the game, lockers and bar, restaurant are closed, the only thing to do is sit in the car and drive away.

In one sentence you say the Thai government is not taking reasonable care for it's citizens and the very next sentence you show you don't know what or if the folks are getting rental assistance, 555.
