Photo: Eakkapop Thongtub PHUKET:-- The total number of people arrested in Phuket for breaking the national nightly has breached 1,600, Phuket Provincial Police have reported. The curfew was launched on Apr 3, with a ban on being on the streets between 10pm and 4am without a genuine reason for doing so. The curfew was shortened last Sunday (May 17) to 11pm to 4am as part of easing the restrictions implemented to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

Irrelevant comments by people completely unaffected by the article would be my guess. These Volunteers (note the use of the word) both guys and gals have been working hard around Phuket assisting with the checkpoints, food distribution, etc. They have done, and continue to, do a sterling job around the island. During 'normal' times they are a handy way of getting people out to assist the cops and others at very short notice when the situation requires it. Far easier for some to knock them from the comfort of the Internet though. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post drbeach Posted May 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 21, 2020 More evidence this curfew is a power trip. Even other autocratic governments like Singapore and Vietnam haven't found the need to implement one. What exactly is Thailand trying to prove, and to whom? I'll save them an explanation - NO ONE is impressed Thai government, most certainly not foreigners. So forget about trying to impress western governments and especially western people - we hate tyranny. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What the Thai authorities have proved is an effectiveness in controlling the spread of CV19. 4 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what percentage of those breaking the curfew were foreigners? 2 hours ago, hotandsticky said: What the Thai authorities have proved is an effectiveness in controlling the spread of CV19. You mean the same government that approved the Muay Thai event that turned into one of the serious spreads of the virus here? The same government packing foreigners into immigration offices at the height of the epidemic? The same government packing people into BTS and MRT stations and trains? The same government that forced tens of thousands out of work in major urban areas only to push them to return to their previously isolated homes in the rest of the country? It is almost certain that the virus was in Thailand in the month of January. Two months before the emergency decrees and the containment measures were implemented. So it is not entirely clear at this time what the real reason is for Thailand being spared from serious numbers. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yuyiinthesky Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 These irresponsible curfew breakers, don't they know that the night is full of zombies, werewolves, vampires (yes, it's true, I saw it on TV) and viruses??? Getting exposed to them at night time will certainly cause a second wave. Obey the orders and stay home until you're told that it's all clear again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its funny i dont really understand the curfew either but i have military aircraft flying over head everyonce and a while now without lights and pretty low coming from myanmar to utapao.. Seems a bit fishy... Dying to know whats going on.. Not much else to be concerned about i guess when your living in isolation with nothing to do...

Most likely you would be shot If they are Illegal Loggers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
