Why don’t realise there will never be zero cases as I think that’s what they are trying too achieve ?

So what number of cases would be acceptable to you before Chonburi fully reopens, Chonburi has a population of over 1.5 million, percentage wise the numbers are very low.

No tests no cases, reduce the number tests, last year the case numbers were very low but so were the number of tests. We will never know the true number of tests/cases are, the government controls that to keep the people in control. 
Mass gatherings are banned but there were hundreds in Pattaya for the Music Festival. From what I seen there was very little or no social distancing and people drinking alcohol, will there be a spike ?

The numbers of infections have been about the same for the last 4-5 months...

when they can show a downward trend which means they have found and isolated the cause then it would be safe to fully open.

At the moment they obviously haven't achieved that.

Where....? Of course some attendees were from the province and out of town areas... but very many drove for an hour or two down the motorway and have since gone back home.

Covid isn’t going away, the numbers will fluctuate depending on how many tests are carried out, my concern is the knee jerk reaction the authorities will take if there is a spike, press the panic button and shut everything down again.
