The need will still be there to wear a mask in certain aspects of daily life, Government offices etc....you can not make others do what you feel is wrong and in your view a miscarriage of justice. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Aussieroaming Posted September 28, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted September 28, 2022 I can't see masks disappearing in Bangkok anytime soon. Anutin praising the populous for continuing mask wearing after discontinuing the mask mandate regulations doesn't help. Personally I think mask wearing should a personal choice now, but it appears that mask wearing (or not) has polarized opinion and created two groups, the mask wearers who decry the actions of the non wearers (mainly falangs) and the non wearers who despise the paranoid people that continue to wear masks (mainly Thais). 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree .. to go with that is the whole “jab” issue as well. It’s become so political and polarizing that it’s hard to have a rational, logical and often a civil discussion about either topic before it devolves quickly For me personally, I see a bit of truth and befits to both “sides” of you will .. so i might be see as a middle of road person who feels each person should be free to make their own choice and have that choice respected but those who may feel differently… i’ve got to believe that some middle ground can be found out there somewhere.

nightfox Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 To bad majority of schools will brainwash these children to continue wearing masks as nothing has changed as just look around as mask mandates have been lifted for months now and yet majority of Thais continue to wear them and probably will keep them on for the rest of their life's. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardly a "celebration". but many schools don't miss the chance to dress up and have fun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangkokReady Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 1, It might be down to the school directors, so there still might be masks in schools. 2, It might be brought back if they do go maskless and the numbers shoot up. I'm optimistic and hoping for the best, but people should be realistic. Once we see that school are choosing to go maskless and it isn't having a significantly adverse effect on covid, then we can breathe a sigh of relief.
