Prayuth stands by Phuket Sandbox despite closure of holiday island

[webfact]

 

Sanook declared that the Thai prime minister Prayuth Chan-ocha would not be defeated.

 

He was standing by the Phuket Sandbox reopening to foreign tourists.

 

This despite the fact that the island will be almost completely sealed off from the rest of the country from August 3rd to 16th. 

 

The PM expressed his confidence in the measures in place in Phuket through his spokesman Anucha Buraphachaisri yesterday.

 

Plans are now in place to move migrant workers in Phuket to protect the tourism plan as well as closures of more risky sites. 

 

The media reported Sandbox figures up to 28th July; these are now out of date and an update is recorded here on ASEAN NOW from Manager.

Is it confidence or obstinacy?

Is it a thought or an opinion? Just seems to be a strange opinion considering that just about everyone else considers that he has made a complete hash of the economy, the COVID-19 vaccination procurements and just about everything else.

Perhaps you know something that we don't. Though so far I have not seen any evidence of that.

So what is it? A thought, an opinion or just a wild stab in the dark based on nothing?

If I were Prayuth, I would retire and leave the sceptre to the opposition party so that everyone can experience what neo-liberalism is.

That joke wasn't very funny when I heard it about 50 years ago.
