I wonder if people would wear motorcycle helmets if the fine was 20kBhat. How much lunch money will the cops get from enforcement of the mask rule, upon those who look like they can afford to pay a fine. Maybe the poor will get a discount down to as low as 100bhat for instant payment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

law ling Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 With such a large fine, the order ought to be more refined: e.g. When eating/drinking can it be removed completely, or only dropped at each mouthful; Perhaps children under two should be exempted; (Posted earlier:) What constitutes correct wearing; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fear from Covid maybe? Anyway these are measures enforced by the company. We have spread out departments over physically separated offices, for example an operations department will be spread out over 5 different offices, each office with a different color code. If a person in that color code gets tested positive, everyone in that color code is quarantined, that way, there will still be people in the department able to work who have another color code. We have changed from finger scan check-in to face recognition check-in. Temp check at arrival in the morning and mandatory hand sanitizing. No physical meetings, all meetings over Zoom, even when office is just next door. We are not allowed to physically visit another color code area without special (difficult) permission from safety department. Nobody from outside allowed in. This is our routine since March 2020.

Everywhere I go cannot be entered without a mask and it's been that way since day one. Even at the food court in JJ market I see people eating their food with the mask just below the bottom lip.

Amdesign Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 I was waiting Thai authorities tell us how they protect us. With vaccines, with medical facilities, care about elderies, with smart country management. Instead, they only terrify people with fines, bans, blocks, raids, imprisonment and detainment in 'field hospitals'. What else will come in their sick minds tomorrow??

Not great when you're trying to see were you are going! I always have a mask to hand just in case I have to stop at a police road block. yes same here glasses fog up .. dangerous when driving or even walking .. what is the score about excercise i read an article from a medical point that in no way or form should you wear a mask whilst running ect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I guess not I'm not usually but me and my Mrs are so annoyed, Sukhothai had 2 cases contained since the pandemic, then the 2nd Songkran allowed visits from Bkk after an outbreak there and now there's 78 cases in our local hospital and 3 known cases so far in our village.

I believe the primary reason is a combination of hysterical over-reaction to perceived (whether real or believed or even already proven to be a false narrative or not) danger combined with posturing to show that they really care and are doing their best to convince people to let them stay in power, all the while exercising their totalitarian control (and increasing it day by day) over the people who should know better and see through the charade, but are easily convinced by such face-saving actions, albeit scientifically dubious to say the least, and actually end up being happy that they have such tyrants in control over their lives. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't imagine that you seriously expected those things... or even were "waiting". That would be one hell of a long wait! But yeah, we are in total agreement on the part about "sick minds". Not all that different from what I'd expect from a place like North Korea. Hmmm other similarities come to mind like how there are certain pictures, statues, and other trinkets with the image of certain beloved and cherished ones all around the countryside, in homes, businesses and everywhere else you can think of, even tattooed permanently right into some people's own skin! And many more similarities if one pays attention.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
