This latest minister obviously doesn’t know how much it costs to charter a plane . They are a bunch of uneducated fools. Or is it that this Minister is very well aware of the capacity of some to not just charter but buy an aircraft outright just now? Exceptional wealth buys exceptions. Until recent events regarding Covid-19 Thailand has been a relatively safe haven from the inundation of infection in winter season locations. Who cares what the real numbers are of those that pass the borders so long as they are accounted for somewhere. I increasingly find it ridiculously tiresome that so many find cause to ridicule the Thai way of doing things given little evidence of justification in outcome with regard to C-19. So easy is it to deflect from the situations in "superior nations" ? Can anyone provide a "superior" example of overall effective protective administration at this point in history? Perhaps China? Would you prefer that ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spidermike007 Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 And in addition to the 40,000 expats and business people, how many tourists have signed onto your ridiculous quarantine program? Total? 4,000? Maybe? Any program requiring quarantine is destined to fail. Testing and vaccines. That is the answer. Trillions of dollars in tourism infrastructure is at stake, and millions of jobs. Man up. Get with thr program. Stop the fear mongering, and roll out some creative and progressive programs. And in the a sense of that, be courageous and offer your people some real help. 3,500 baht per month for two months may be better than nothing, but it will not change lives. If the army was serious and cared, it could dig into its own multi billion dollar treasury. Same applies to other billionaires here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
