webfact Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Thailand’s Centre for COVID-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) will meet in September to consider whether the state of emergency, put in place to control the spread of the disease in March 2020, will be lifted, newly-appointed Government Spokesman Anucha Burapachaisri said today (Monday). He said that the CCSA did not discuss the issue at its meeting last Friday, because there is still enough time before the end of September, when the current extension of the decree is due to expire, adding that the measure is currently still necessary to contain the spread of the disease. He said that the CCSA did discuss a framework of guidelines and the timeline for Thailand’s transition to a post-pandemic era, on the principle that people will be able to co-exist and pursue their normal lives safely in the presence of COVID-19.

NoshowJones Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Does the unelected PM not have a say in this? If the CCSA does get the State of Emergency lifted, does that mean the protesters will be out on the streets of Bangkok in force again? If it does I think there will be a lot more than there was the last time just before the pandemic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The country is open to everyone, domestic and international travel is invited. mass gatherings, parties, full-moon party are all allowed, yet for public health and safety the emergency decree is required. Who do you think you are kidding Mr Prayut? 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
