rooster59 18,943 Posted April 5, 2020 Author Share Posted April 5, 2020 All 158 returnees who shunned quarantine report themselves to officials By The Nation All the 158 overseas Thais who landed at Suvarnabhumi Airport on Friday night and had refused to be quarantined have reported themselves to officials, deputy police spokesman Pol Col Kritsana Phatthanacharoen said at 9pm on Saturday. The passengers had returned from Japan in three flights, and in a flight each from Qatar, and Singapore. Some passengers reportedly had fever but left the airport, defying quarantine orders. The prime minister had expressed concern over the incident and subsequently an ultimatum was issued, asking the returnees to report to officials by 6pm on Saturday or face action for violation of laws.

kevin612 1,281 Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 make sure no individual gets away from quarantine and question them if they contact with anyone already. Keep the covid 19 numbers down to attract future tourists. Stay safe, folks. Link to post Share on other sites

actonion 484 Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 I feel sure Thailand is going to have the virus hanging around a lot longer then many other country's, this is not the first time Thai's returning from abroad have disappeared without being isolated 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

It would appear from other topics that most if not all from that flight have reported to authorities. Link to post Share on other sites

Popular Post Danny Australia 86 Posted April 5, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 5, 2020 Too little, too late. The damage has already been done. This order is just a reaction to the nation's outrage for letting them out of the airport without enforcing the qurantine rules. 4 Link to post Share on other sites
tomazbodner 3,625 Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 (edited) Oh they ALL reported themselves? What was all the fuss at the airport then? Edited April 5, 2020 by tomazbodner 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Popular Post SantiSuk 3,393 Posted April 5, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 5, 2020 (edited) Hopefully some of the returnees got home with their stories of how they had evaded isolation at the airport and were met with an unexpectedly aggressive reaction from their 'loved ones'. "*deleted* me, you did what"? Not all Thais are as stupid as many ThaiV members like to paint them! Edited April 5, 2020 by SantiSuk 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites
ThailandRyan 18,575 Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 I would hope, and unfortunate as it may seem, that anybody that had contact with them from the time they left the airport until they turned themselves in is smart enough now to self isolate and quarantine themselves as well. I just love it when people think they know better, and believe they are smarter than anyone else, and because of this poor excuse of an attitude they have, and then directly disobey common sense directions given to them, they not only endanger themselves, but everyone else they come into contact with. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Arrest warrants, the world has gone raving mad. Unbelieveable being arrested for suspicion of having a virus. Most likely none of them even contracted the virus. What a difference two weeks make hey ? I know someone will complain, but whatever you say, this is way over the top. Illogical panic.

Pray tell, why the urgency now ? Why not two months ago, when it could actually have made a difference. I suspect this remark will go right over your head... 1 Link to post Share on other sites
