Is the Phuket Sandbox still happening on July 1st, or has it been postponed?

@Pascal *******

Except in this case it's actually worse than reporting a false rumor. The Thaiger is referencing the Siam Rath article as saying the minister said it won't be ready by July 1, when that article said no such thing, actually even the opposite thing, that Phuket will be ready July 1. Posting false rumors is one thing, posting lies about what other media have reported is even worse in my opinion.

its not ready

In terms of amount of vaccinated people.

Supposed to be 70 % with both vaccinations by June 16th as stated months ago now they will fudge figures and will be more than 70 % with a single injection

@Scott ******

It may not happen, but the minister didn't say what Thaiger has reported in this case, so this erroneous article is in and of itself not a good reason to believe it won't. You can find other reasons, of course. ;-)

Wow, really not fair in this particular instance to call it a backpedal. More like journalistic malpractice. The article you posted is based solely on a Siam Rath article that basically says the opposite, that July 1st is when Phuket Sandbox will start. Complete botch job by Thaiger. The minister never said it wouldn't be ready by July 1.
