ChaiyaTH Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 (edited) How things only can go south more... There is quite a few location specific tourists, can imagine how frustrating it would be if you planned everything in Chiang Mai or another town, to then hear they close down again or delay reopening. To also keep in mind most countries had another infection wave after being done vaccinating most people, so we could still get that one here too. Is gonna be a rollercoaster ride the next months.

ripstanley Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 With over 400 cases a day it would be a logical decision. Sorry I forgot that logic is not a consideration. I live in Phayao province and a local nightclub in Muang Phayao employed a DJ from Bangkok. Surprise surprise he was positive to Covid.

Rather, it's the relaxation of rules in a population that still has low levels of vaccination. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The prime reasons why surges/spike come about is a portion of the respected populations that aren't practicing/observing protocol measures.

The subject of this thread is about delaying the reopening of CM on Nov 1. Obviously (but not obvious enough for some apparently) this is about reopening to foreign arrivals, because it is already open for domestic.

cape Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Id imagine the only people going to Thailand these days are going to collect their belongings and move out permanently. That place is finished. I gather the idea is to move the girls into the factories building parts for electric vehicles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichardColeman Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 You keep locking up and delaying it you will never open. Need to get back to normal now, not in 1 month, 3 months 6 months or a year. Now. Thailand - and the world - is now needlessly destroying their economies and the kids are going to be so poor in the future they will condemn these lockdowns and debt building 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, an article published on the 22nd of October in the Bangkok Post about curfews ending in 17 provinces including Chiang Mai says otherwise. It also said that the maximum number of people permitted to attend public gatherings would be 500. But it doesn't explain what that might encompass.Maybe this is for events like elephant shows and the night safari. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A curfew is a regulation requiring people to remain indoors between specified hours, typically at night. CM has no such restrictions in place at the moment!

Just found this article Thailand announces reopening rules for tourism reboot "The capital Bangkok and other top destinations like Pattaya, Hua Hin, Krabi and Chiang Mai, will reopen from Nov. 1 to vaccinated visitors from 45 nations, who must produce negative COVID-19 tests before and after arrival, plus COVID-19 insurance cover of at least $50,000. Nighttime curfews in those areas will also be lifted." https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/thailand-announces-reopening-rules-tourism-reboot-2021-10-22/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
