Paul Henry Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Another irresponsible statement by someone who knows no better. OPPS sorry forgot last week he promised corona virus would blow away after Songran. They obviously get their jobs through nepotism or buying them. Not through education or skill level and ability. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Scott Tracy Posted February 29, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 29, 2020 Rubbish headline. He hopes to promote it as a Covid-9 free race. He cannot promise, nor did he. He promised effective preventative measures, not a Covid-19 free Buri Ram moto GP. Errr, someone take me to the loony bin.

Popular Post Cake Monster Posted February 29, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 29, 2020 I cannot believe for one moment that the ruling body of the MOTO GP will allow this event to continue. Sporting events all round the Globe are being cancelled, or postponed due to the outbreak of Covid19, and here we have this Dinosaur of a Government Minister spouting a load of verbal Diarrhoea that the event will go ahead and will be safe for Racers, Staff, Vendors and Spectators, when in reality he has no idea at all in which direction the Virus will take the population of Thailand ( or any other Nation ) Why does the Government persist in making themselves look ridiculous with such statements. Or is it that they really are out of their depth on this. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the World Health Organization ranked the healthcare systems of 191 countries, Colombia came in at #22. That is better than Canada at #30 and the United States at #37. On top of this, when financial publication América Economía put together their latest annual list of Latin America’s top 58 hospitals, 23 of those hospitals were based in Colombia. That means that 40% of the top Latin American hospitals are located in Colombia. Four of these hospitals are Joint Commission International accredited, the gold standard in world health. Two are located in Bogotá (Fundación Cardioinfantil – Instituto de Cardiología, and Hospital Universitario Fundacion Santa Fe de Bogotá), one is located in Medellín (Hospital Pablo Tobón Uribe), and one is located just outside of Bucaramanga (Fundación Cardiovascular de Colombia – Instituto del Corazón). medical education in colombia and numerous other developing countries is very stringent and tough since the body of knowledge is essentially the same throughout the world i guess you would would refuse/ not seek medical treatment in thailand or other developing country since degrees are "bought" the guy you cite, alex azar is a lawyer with tons of administrative / policy experience and it seems his position mainly entails administrative stuff jai yen yen, take it easy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirineou Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 as AussieBob18 said on the first page of this thread "My bet - unless the virus is brought under control in a week or so, the event will be cancelled " and all indications are that this thing will get a lot worse before it gets better. This is not only about Thailand but also about people and contestants with crews coming from other countries and with health concerns , travel concerns, and travel restrictions, It is not going to happen. I don't know what this guy is talking about, I suspect he does not know also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
