Asking for it in the VoA channel or at an arriving immigration desk at BKK or DMK seems like a a bit late. If they don't have it then what? Denied entry and returned? Expect less travellers (from China), but longer queues! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mavideol Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 (edited) if and a big IF these (clowns) people cared about Thai citizens & residents safety they would have cancelled ALL flights from China, closed the country to all and any arrivals from China, as so many of their neighbors did but here the greed is taking over and today just for curiosity checked Phuket, Krabi, Koh Samui airports arrivals, guess what, these 3 still receing flights from China, thus Prayut and the gang are absolutely not concerned about people's safety/well being but only worried about the $$$$$$ ...... same as China, they also claimed all flights OUT of China cancelled 555 Just realized that ALL airports in Thailand are still allowing flights from China to land, it's unbelievable this government doing that and Thai people not doing anything about it Edited February 4, 2020 by Mavideol correcting airports info 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken George Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Its an impossible ask. There are not enough kits to check for the virus. Plus its sometimes taking 3/4 tests to confirm people have coronavirus! A temperature check is virtually pointless bring that the virus has an incubation period of up to 14 days. Is a holiday out of China for Chinese really worth the risk that they will spread the disease and possible kill people? ???????????? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TallGuyJohninBKK Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 (edited) 5 hours ago, justin case said: reality check : 0 new cases for a week in thailand ? come on ... and still letting chinese in ... how stupid can you be, ah yes, self elected scum But 405 cases of sick people in Thailand who are "under investigation" as possible coronavirus cases and awaiting lab test results, as of yesterday's latest govt. update, which was up almost 100 cases from just one day earlier. Lately, the sick people seem to go into the Thai government's testing protocol for the coronavirus, but lately, hardly any completed test results coming out afterward.... The test results "pending" number just keeps growing and growing. How do you explain that? --Thailand has the slowest testing protocol in the world? --Their testing capacity has been totally overwhelmed by the current crush of suspected cases? --They're slow-walking the test results in order to avoid numbers that are drastically higher than those already reported?

This was a 2 minutes job on the side of the road.

If the epicenter is in London, it is not racist to ban all tourists from Europe? A country is a political boundary and not ethnic boundary. FYI, China blocked only one province which is equivalent to one country in Europe in terms of land mass and population. As far as i know the Virus escaped through Quarantine zone, if you look the map of China you will see that its spreaded in all provinces, so yes it seems to me logically to ban all Chinese, but if we stick to the topic MR. Prayut cannot accept loss, so he is trying to find another way to manipulate people of Thailand for they are being safe -medical certificates- well even if these few months would be hard for Thai economy until this settle down i really see big scale problem if Virus start spreading in Thailand than Thailand will not lose only Chinese tourists but ALL of them because nobody will want to go on holiday into contaminated country with deadly virus.

Carriers can spread the virus before showing symptoms, and while showing symptoms, so letting in hordes of Chinese tourists is like playing Russian roulette... Expect thousands of infected and dozens of dead in Thailand over the course of the year. Edited February 4, 2020 by StayinThailand2much 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think escaped is the correct expression. Prior to the realisation of what virus it was many many chinese started travelling city to countryside and countryside to city because of the holiday season.

sambum Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Perhaps the ones that DO come won't be made to feel very welcome anyway, and will return to China with less than favourable reports of Thailand as a holiday destination? So let a few in - treat them like lepers, and they will spread the word on their return home, and hopefully the Chinese will take their custom elsewhere. Then, once again, hopefully (because that old chestnut, FACE comes into play) the Thai Government may realise that long and short stay "farangs" do have something to offer after all! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
