At least Thailand isn't as psychotic, paranoid, ignorant and weird like China can be with the citizens and officials throwing dogs and cats out of condos and slaughtering them because of the insane fear of COVID being spread from the animals.  

 

If Thailand was China the Chinese would probably be ordering mass culling of all monkeys (like Mao Ze Dong's instruction to wipe out all the sparrows there).
