Much has been said about this already. So maybe this thread could morph into one about security and how to go about protecting against the seemingly inevitable rise in crime. For example, I have urged my daughter to always lock the car doors when out. If on the motorbike, she should always look around her for anyone suspiciously following her. And if anyone suspicious comes near her to be ready to throw away some smaller notes.

Are these not standard measures anywhere?

True. But people do let their guard down when times are not so fraught. And, this looks to be the very worst of times ahead of us.

Pattaya will not fall into a giant hole in the ground, never to be seen again.

 

When this crisis is over, Pattaya will not be the same, and the hospitality and tourism industry here will take some rebuilding.  It will be a slow process.  

 

Pattaya, post virus, may not be a place many western expats would like to live, or many western tourists would like to visit in the future.

 

The buildings will still be standing, but all the empty buildings here will be the results of the economic destruction this virus will have caused. 

Yep and to put that into perspective both Flipper Lodge and Sabai Lodge close today....Could you imagine that announcement on any other April 1st !

The closure is understandable.  The question is, will they reopen, and when?

would give the government more secrecy and control over the narrative than if they built new tent hospitals in Bangkok.

 

Boy this could sure be interpreted a few different ways.......

Time to legalize recreational ganja. It can be enjoyed at a safe distance from others. Look what it did for Colorado. 

Did they lose their grasp on reality too?
