As they're already here, not even TAT could care less, it's all about arrivals.

 

Correction: It's all about money, tourists are nothing more than ATM machines, their comfort or safety are the farthest thing from the minds of Thai's.

Wear a N95 mask.

I wonder if that will appear in the glossy brochure or be included in the booking form?

Maybe they could be handed out for free by Immigration at the airport?

That might work well for a few industries, but a lot of people can't really work from home.

Course they can, grow rice in their living rooms!  555

Bring your own N95 mask?

Authorities are helpless and passive. They could easily do something to to prevent a lot of the fire ignition. But they seemingly don't care.

Hell yeah... work from home sounds sweet.

 I wonder how many Thai folks cannot work from home? e.g. staff at 7/11, supermarkets, hypermarkets, many government offices which require citizens to come to the office to do many transactions, and more ...

This is incredible news.

It will not affect me, however.

Can you even imagine that an entire nation will begin working from home, and not going outside, due to the air?

 

Worse then Pea Soup, maybe....?

 

========

And, for those at home?

Do they have proper air purifiers set up already?

Have they taped their windows and sealed them properly?

Do they have ACs for use in such rooms that are sealed?

 

So much to do.

So little time.....

 

Let's get on the stick, and get cracking!!!
