The funny thing is, just about every Thai I know do NOT like the Chinese.

@Oliver ************

Why do you capitalize every word?

@Bobby *******

Maybe yes, maybe no. I see Myanmar is on the list but now they are having a surge. So how can these Einsteins justify keeping them on the list. Just further idiocy

@Oliver *******

Reasons for compliance are also cultural. Where countries are largely homogeneous there is respect for others because of identification with them.

But isn't there a risk the list can't be written in stone as cases could pop up anytime? (Rhetorical ?)

Haha

@Oliver *******

Basically I agree with you, although there are most likely more deaths in Thailand than reported as many of the old died at home and were never tested, if it was a huge number that would have eventually have come out. Many of the countries that kept their counts down were successful at locking their borders (island or island-like - Korea) and were financially well enough off that they could keep socially distanced, unlike countries where people are crammed together. IMHO

@Oliver *******

I know. I've been in Korea most of the last 5 months and feel very safe here. But the list of approved countries I saw considered low-risk and OK for the STV did not include Korea.

Wouldn't you consider South Korea low risk?

Just when I thought they couldn't come out with anything more stupid, they manage to surprise me- 14 day quarantine in home country. This guy,

Dr Chakrarat Pittayawonganon, if he is really a psychiatrist....I think its time for me turn in my license.
