Therefore it's possible, that the virus could not yet be detected in the state of departure, but a short time later in Thailand. But, but .. that happened 47 days only in falang cases? Incredible. For me it seems the military government wants to hide a lot. agree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumbo1968 Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Perhaps the Thai Government are trying to convince their people that all the other countries in the world are unclean and that’s why returnees have Covid and prove to the people we can manage without all the unclean people returning to Thailand.

Thanks Here's one: If you were in a position to control that information and you were also in a position to set policy about tourism moving forward (as in trying jumpstart a damaged economy in an uncertain world) and you had a fantasy that tourism could be even a slim approximation of the old normal, you might want to not have other people perceive your country as having about the same rate of cases per million as the countries that are being posted as hit the worst. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, with the domestic audience, the people in power will be saying look what a great job we have done containing the disease please continue to accept our rule. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robsamui Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 (edited) Sooner or later the truth is going to come out. It's unavoidable. It seems that the government has been gagging hospitals from reporting Covid cases for a long time now and simply turning a totally blind eye to the whole damn thing, hoping it will all go away. There are only two possible contingencies: 1. The Thai Government is monitoring and recording all domestic infections. 2. The Thai Government is not monitoring and recording any domestic infections. And with ZERO domestic infections reported in the last 40-odd days, which one are you going to believe? Don't pull your cash out of banks abroad just yet. Keep it there. In a few month's time when Thailand can't keep lying any longer, it all gets revealed and the baht crashes, then cash-in. That's the only upside to the deception that I can see.

The proof is that thais are blacklisted to enter or must undergo quarantine in UK and other EU countries I have read last week.."SOMNAMNA"! And anyway, that is called "reciprocity" and should be done also with the right to own land for thais abroad!!
