Obviously trying to break the record for road deaths during this stupid festival.

I wish it could be banned indefinitely.

Never, it's a sanook cultural thing! The road fatalities are part and parcel!

Yah with no tourists. I can just imagine how every old man scared of water and fun in Pattaya will be still celebrating under their  bed terrified. Just wait till April 2022. It will be epic!! Some of you guys can start complaining about it this May. Wa wa wa I can’t ride my motorbike for a week. 

Oh, dear. "Bitchy, Bitchy, Bitchy me"

Wa Wa Wa!

Songkran is the most stupid insane new year celebration I have ever seen especially in Pattaya. Please Covid help... 

[teacherclaire 1,855]

According to Sanook News, Deputy Public Health Minister Sathit Pitutecha has said that if people continue to follow the preventative measures put in place to limit the spread of the virus, then the Songkran water festival will go ahead as normal in April.

 

Who would believe that?

 

They announced two weeks ago to shut down schools in provinces without sick people. 

 

   It was decided on a Sunday evening at 9 pm. 

 

How would they know now if the numbers are still low in April?

 

   The fortune tellers must make good money these days.

Why do they have to screw up the one sole benefit of Covid-19 ? Cancel Songkran forever...time to move into the 21st century

They now can  prove the virus can swim? Ha Ha!

Well or not.

Thai communities will observe in one fashion or another. 

 

Needn't have the suppressive authorities to tell us when to wipe and when not to. 

The oppressive authorities you refer to may well have saved your life and 000’s of others by preventative measures.

be safe- or dead

I think Covid should be brought back every year for one week...the week of April 12-19.

The stupidest event in the world;  “Thai Culture” ;

Waste of water, waste of alcohol and waste of lives on the roads.  Give a medal to these guys in power ... Please

About the only 3 things I have ever seen expats agree almost 100% on are....

 

1. The baht is overvalued....

2 Thai visas are a convoluted mess...

3.And almost a unanimous hatred of Songkran...
