According to the Chinese embassy’s Facebook post, China will stand with Thailand in overcoming the crisis and the donation is to express the goodwill that the Chinese government has for the Thai people and to strengthen the friendship between the two countries. The donated equipment will include oxygen concentrators, fingertip pulse oximeters and other medical supplies. Chinese ambassador to Thailand Han Zhiqiang said bilateral exchanges and cooperation have brought the countries closer together. China and Thailand are fighting the pandemic shoulder to shoulder and helping each other through a challenging time. Mr. Han Zhiqiang stressed the need to strengthen cooperation in the fight against COVID-19, saying all sectors have been making concerted efforts to eradicate infections and he is confident the pandemic will eventually be overcome. -- © Copyright NNT 2021-08-30 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow ASEAN NOW on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have also made rather a tidy sum from a cheap to produce vaccine that had dubious efficacy. Distraction I see...... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smedly Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 Thai people are generally proud people It must be really embarrassing that this government has put the nation in this position of needing donations, the image in my mind is of the beggars on the streets of Pattaya doing the bars with the begging bowl out shameful 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spidermike007 Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 Two remarkable things about this. One, the fact that the onetime "Tiger of SE Asia" has descended to the level, where they are now a desperate and needy recipient of charity. Blame Prayuth. Two, that China is actually doing some charity. PR no doubt, and fairly easy to buy the favor of this administration. Blame Prayuth. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
