19DL86 Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 As regards the totally exploitive 20,000Bt fines directed solely at foreigners, well it's just the usual and ever growing xenophobic bigotry that is Thailand's attitude to us in ever way. We all know that exists and its blatant right from the first year or 2 of living here. But I m with Danny Carlton, regards Thais wearing face masks. Well before Cv-19 I ve noticed the wearing of them was a growing trend, almost a ridiculous fashion accessory (like teeth braces). Every where you went six months ago you'd see loads of Thais with them on outside or even inside supermarkets, shopping malls etc. I ve spent time during the past month both down here in the Pattaya/Jomtien area and up in Udon Thani and I'd say that the majority of Thais were wearing masks and now do more so. Everywhere. I ve even comment to friends back home, if this might be a reason for the rather low rate of mortality to CV-19. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An appalling abuse of power if this is put into effect. Love how the article solely blames foreigners and only foreigners will be fined. So nice to be so welcome!

The accepted theory is that wild bats in Hubei developed a mutation of other coronaviruses and passed it on to the local pangolin, which were sold in Wuhan and eaten by the lcals who developed what we now know as COVID-19. The laborotory route was a conspiracy theory developed by US conspiracy theorists (who else). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if it wasn't for the wild bats in Hubei, your laundry lady would still be washing clothes and not manufacturing designer masks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So any white male from let's say the UK is a Farang only but not a foreigner. it doesn't matter - he is creating an "us and them division" all initiatives combating this outbreak should not be targeting one particular section of the general public - it should encompass all in equal measure Although it does offer some insight as to what some of the challenged actually think of foreigners with little thought given to the fact we are responsible for over 20% of the countries GDP the mayor would do well to remind himself that there would be no Pattaya without us 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I do not believe they are much use at all, I wear a mask in deference to the local population and I have been treated with kindness and respect when out shopping for essentials. They could not be more helpful, actually more than they normally are. Read "Thaiger" reports on infections in Phuket.....they go something like this. Case #1 Aom a market stall holder living with her family of 12 from Patong, spoke to a Farang in Lotus. Case #2 Somchai a builder, worked on a Farang house Etc etc etc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you think that now even the US and Europe are starting to wear masks??? Because they sure stop the virus from spreading like crazy! You think anybody on the world would wear them for fun? You might be able to read English words my good friend, but apparently have a degree of difficulty connecting all the dots in a paragraph that forms the thought. As a former Health & Safety Consultant for the Ontario Public Service, if anything it appears I was uncharacteristically too polite and respectful when I gave my father <deleted> for not wearing one. To be specific, the problem with this particular illness is that perhaps someone like you might not be aware they have it while spreading it across the land like little Johnny Appleseed planting apple trees. I guess it's my experience with people that I had to explain that lead doesn't radiate like Kryptonite so they wouldn't worry as much about becoming more retarded that I'm in complete agreement with enforcement. Since quoting the latest guideline that the CDC came out with though, from what I remember you should have included that because of the shortage, they're recommending almost anything covering open spaces between the ears. Hopefully I made myself clearer. It has been fun and I'm looking forward to being punished again for being inflamed myself. Such is life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop the blah blah dude...above is the only sentence that makes sense. And why can those highly educated medical professionals that we have in the West, ones from the best universities of the world not even prepare for a pandemic which even my dead grandma could have seen coming since december??? They lost ALL credability and i don't understand why people like you still pay attention to their advices. The western medics have F-ed this up! Resulting in loads of deads in the western world. Those folks make 500.000 euro a year in Europe, do you think they are still worth that huge salary? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a lot going on at a very high level just before the outbreak. Maybe a back door route to taking us back to the good old days post 2015.
