The above said, they were actually breaking Covid rules, locals complaining, so the boys have to take action, cant have the locals always complaining about farangs.

Looking more closely at the picture there were 4 Farangs sitting on the beach (likely all know each other or maybe even live together) and no sign of any alcohol. What exactly were they doing wrong? 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post flyfrog Posted August 24, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 24, 2021 I don't believe the locals complained for a few people on deserted beach 1 km away from everything with nobody around, so who to infect?? How about the markets, buses, BTS etc...the Special Forces Team should go have look there???? 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the problem? They are not sitting in a bar, but in open space, they can not infect someone , because no one will come there. In other places like the hotels in Panggna or Phuket it seems more dangerous than on a desolated beach... But of course foreigners, not even tourists ..... not allowed.. but Thais sitting together under a tree in or around a village ... no problem ...have been gathering, drinking and eating and lighting fires from dawn to dusk on a secluded and difficult to access beach called Laem Niat. Which means at least one person will go shopping where they can infect someone. 2 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BKKBike09 Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Sad to say but these people were asking for trouble if there weren't any Thais present too. Some people will complain about anything, and boy do they hate the idea of anyone having fun while they're virtue signalling their compliance (even if that means wearing the same crappy one baht mask for a week). And don't forget the fear that has gripped so many people. Was just reading about many unis in UK mandating face masks for students in the coming term. A surprising number of people support it because it "helps to protect others". I feel sorry for the immuno-compromised etc but hey, take agency for your own protection. Buy and wear a proper medical grade mask and don't go out so much if you're that worried instead of demanding that everyone else should mask up "to protect you". I'm sick of it. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingstonkid Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 3 hours ago, 2long said: Overreaction or what? Groups of 5-6 out in the fresh air miles from anyone in a place that's difficult to access! ikke1959 is correct. The headline suggests (to me at least) that they're gathering in large groups at the pier not wearing masks or having sex parties in underground pubs! If they weren't doing this at the beach, they'd be holed up in a cheap apartment somewhere doing the same (exc. fires). There are a couple of problems number 1 of course is that they are in fact possible carriers and are flouting the law. The bigger problem is that this could in fact become another version of THE BEACH. Also if they have booze the only place they can get it is in the village along with the food they eat. 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really lame all the "WHITE DEVIL" headlines over incidences like this that once you discover they were in a SECLUDED spot, in open air, looks like a few feet apart = not wonderful, but there are a zillion Thai Devils actions I could photograph "everyday" which are so more egregious!!! Klong ferry's/buses, BTS/ cashier lines packed shoulder to shoulder. I am color BLIND by choice and if someone is doing something wrong, then I prefer to hear about it as "a person called xyz did such and such", I don't give a hoot if they are White or Thai.
