Unbelievable, this kind of remark shows a complete lack of professional decorum, However, it does paint a good picture of what the government must be thinking........ 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes i do agree with you about the diatribe he is spouting. But I must admit, things would be a bit more charming if the first person you saw asking for your money was someone in an Hawaiian shirt, wearing a lei, and strumming a ukulele. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICELANDMAN Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 He has told the tourists not to believe rumours circulating on social media same ThaiVisa In particular he has told everyone to carry on spending at places like the big department stores in Thailand, all of which have measures in place to tackle the health emergency. The media mentioned Paragon, Discovery Center, Siam Center and Icon Siam, if you buy on this place your are safe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Golden Triangle Posted January 27, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 27, 2020 I'm loving the humour on here people, thanks very much for the smiles ???? However, on a more serious point, I have noticed that on almost every thread connected to this virus & Thailand, the main theme is the money, or more accurately the money they aren't going to make. Previous to this thread I was reading that the Pattaya authorities are pondering what to do ?? They have considered making Nong Nooch free, but only to Thais and are concerned mainly at the loss of revenue & not peoples safety, nearly every thread/article has the same theme. Disgusting really. 12 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herwin1234 Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 "dont panic" seems sound advice to me. What SHOULD his advice be?? "Stay all day in your hotel room and prepare to die."? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cricky Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 It's a Win, Win for Thailand. They come and spend lots of money and if they get sick put them in a hospital like BHP and charge them a fortune while they recover. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starting from the 1st February all Tourists will be questioned and searched to see if they are carrying any money. If so they will be escorted to the Duty Free rip off shops where they must spend all their money except $50 (Taxi fare home from airport !) Furthermore, they will not get their 7% VAT refund. 3 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post sahibji Posted January 27, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 27, 2020 this statement by the tourism minister is beyond belief. he has not shown any concern for the health welfare of the people but only in his myopic tourism dollar. besides shopping the tourists will also be interacting in the public during their sightseeing visits. the tourism minister should be addressing concern about that rather than "keep on spending". what a selfish interest is this? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khunpa Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Wonder if they have sent in extra forces to clean the dance poles at places like Nana Plaza, Soi Cowboy etc.? Or guess they think there is not much risk of it spreading there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
