The more I see this double-act in action, the more I keep seeing them as 'The Two Ronnies" - the little wimpy one with the specs and the big, lumpy brash one who knows it all.

The billionaire might have the vaccines ready, but does the warehouse have enough doses of the ones that provides the best protection?

I'd also be concerned if the warehouses had the proper facilities to store the ones that provide the best protection.

So was there any need to close everything down and bankrupt people?. Luckily for Thailand people with lots of cash are taking over the closed businesses and restarting them.

Yeah Chinese restaurants everywhere!!????

Nearly two years ago he was shouting at a "farang" for not accepting his gift of a mask.

Did he shout at them?  I thought he just slagged them off after they left.

If the vaccines are effective against covid and I seriously doubt it.

World needs hope and that is mostly what these vaccines give.  Just look at the stock markets level

and housing prices in many countries.

Without hope, the politicians will be running to the hills.

24th in the world for infections

35th in the world for deaths

44th in the world for testing

146th in the world for testing per million

 

Very clear from the world's figures that this is complete fiction.

 

Thailand is in fact a low testing high case country

 

Thailand has only tested 14,000,000 people - 20% of its population ONCE.

UK similar size - 384,000,000 tests - 100% of it's population - averaged at 6 tests each per person

 

This man should NOT be in his position. He certainly should be banned from every world health authority meeting simply as ne cannot be trusted to carry on spouting clap trap

Then please get rid of the 1 day quarantine and also Covid test when entering Thailand. It's not necessary when there is already a 50K health insurance requirement

I believe it. Oh yeah. 

silence is golden !!!!!

Possibly tons of Sinovac might be available

So in your world, insurance prevents transmission of Covid????

My wife had her first Moderna vaccine dose last week. I had a Moderna booster dose 2 days ago. Both were free. Much as I dislike the man he is correct in what he says. No need to go private.

Aren't you the lucky one.

My FIL got his first injection last week. My MIL and her sister are still waiting for their first !!

"Next year there was tons of vaccine available" Next year? And so the debacle continues.

He said that Covid-19 had devastated the whole world but claimed that Thailand had stood up to it.

This guy really has a short memory... or just a very selective one.

6 months ago Thailand had nothing much in the way of vaccines, only those donated by other nations.

In fact that's still the case today.

It's freely available in Buriram, Surin and Sisaket. Perhaps you could take them to the Surin Elephant Show (Up to 26th December) out the front 5pm-8.30 pm 7 days a week. Then same but at Surin Rajabhat. Walk-in from any province allowed. All the vaccines available. Modern, Pfizer etc. You chose. All are free.

How the <deleted> does this man keep his job...??? 

Friends and a large bank balance..  goes for quite a few high ranking politicians.

Of course the virus is inferior to him.

 

As are all but a handful of thai people are.

 

No clue why he still tumescent about private options? Does he plan to do away with all private health care.?

 

 

He blares out big mouth statements based on nothing.  He will have to apologize again and again and again.
Sad that such a person can become a minister of health.  It does not reflect well on Thailand. 
And it certainly will not encourage tourists to have confidence. 

A misleading troll post has been removed

Do you truly believe that your views are the same as the views of Thai people? 

The Thais with half a brain utterly despise the pair of them. Brainwashable types lap up anything the utter tool of a health minister says. Hope omicron personally bites him right on the A. 

He is the way he looks

This guy really is a delusional A##e of the highest order.

A speech for a domestic audience that is too cowed to speak or think for itself.

Don't be fooled by silence. I, and more specifically my Thai wife, knows of no-one with anything less than utter contempt for any member of the current government. They also know that there is no way to remove it as it re-wrote the constitution after stealing power from the elected government to ensure its military friends would always give it the balance of power. As we have seen in the past year or two, protests in the streets have achieved precisely nothing, and nor will they.
