Popular Post orchidfan Posted May 23, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 23, 2020 For a few months now my (favorite) local 7 has had temperatures taken and hand gel + mandatory mask to enter. Today, they now have the above PLUS the new data collection QR code system as well. I told the girl (same girl every day, every hour for weeks) I don't/can't do QR code, so had to sign in with name and mobile number (same pen and pad used by dozens). And sign out again. So now the data collectors have a fictitious mobile number for Mr Mickey Mouse in my locale. 6 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post samsensam Posted May 23, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 23, 2020 well that's very public spirited of you. if you get the virus the authorities will have no way of tracking and tracing your movements and thus ensure anyone you may have infected can be put into quarantine, thus they will go about unaware they infecting others. nice one. 19 1 7 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robblok Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Its so easy just to scan it with the line ap.. In and out.. and then they have times too so they dont have to contact you unless it is really needed. The list you do manually is not as good as it does not register a time in and out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricTh Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 (edited) I tried using the QR code to enter a shopping mall today. I don't have internet access on my phone so does that mean it doesn't work with internet? So I just wrote my details on the log book. I don't know what's the point if nobody checks whether the info is correct or not. They should at least give us a step by step instruction on how to use this QR code thing.

I should be more concerned by the potential infected same pen used by hundreds of people to sign the form. Anyway i am not ready to let anybody know where i go and what i do and i am sure the risk is 1000 far higher to be contacted for some ''promotions'' from the shops using the data than for someone infected by the virus in the shop at the same time than me (65 millions of Thais, 56 deads so far in 3 months, i am not that paranoid sorry) Then for now i avoid every shop where the data collect is mandatory anyway the malls are not a necessity at all for me, they were closed during 2 months and i have hardly noticed the closure Edited May 23, 2020 by kingofthemountain 11 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People not staying away and refusing are stupid. As for the corvid rates I dont believe them. I do believe the risk is not high but registration can help to curb it before it gets too bad. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it won't. You don't see the Thais (the main customer base) bleating like children.

It's easier for them to blindly obay any rules imposed on them from high up, without question of motives or effectiveness. If you live here you should know it's their culture not to question anyone above them in the social ladder, or cause any loss of face. They must know their place.

They have no way to track anyway. The paperwork is often not dated or timed (my local Tesco and Big C) and where do you think it all goes and who is collating all that data in thousands of locations, the answer is nobody. It's a meaningless and stupid public relations exercise, nothing more. 7 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is an option, and could be even some fun, depending on the name you choose. Nevertheless, I prefer to support the ones not forcing it on me. And I think we should not let surveillance sneak in through the back door, no matter under which excuse it is hidden. So I vote by not going where I get forced to sign in. And another thing, 7/11 killed a lot of small family businesses, I like to support the remaining ones them by buying there. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was assuming most Thais are scanning the QR code until today when I went shopping with a bunch of Thais. Lets just say they are going through the motions. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
