watching sky news today, and wondering how Thailand is currently suffering from the "UK Strain" of the Chinese virus whilst it's now apparent that the "South African strain" is rampant in South London ..

Couldn't make it up could you? or perhaps some "blame game" politicians with an axe to grind could :-k

Another really strange post vlad ..its like youve got a sense of glee at the current third covid wave here in Thailand , hoping for it to get worse not improve.
Yes i agree the video is disturbing shows these idiots disregarding covid regulations IMO you will always get the odd bunch of morons defying the authourites but i doubt it will effect you in Barrow. For a guy that obviously craves to visit or even reside / retire here , sends money here i find it strange you constantly deride the country , its culture and people sadly to the point you seem happy to be so anti Thai with regard to many aspects of life here and now also the current very serious covid situation... are you historically that bitter how things turned out for you here in the past ...if so its shameful.

btw i see no name calling in this post no need to be reporting it .. a pleasant reply would be nice highlighting why you choose to be so negative about a country that you clearly must hold some fond memories of..maybe even still love in some ways.

This opinion in absentia based on a single, unverified YouTube. Sounds about right, eh vlad?

Thailand 1335 new cases announced today (14 April)... a big jump but could well be a foretaste of what is to come.

Why is it OK to call the England strain or South African strain, but ethnocentric and rayciss to refer to the original as the Wuhan Flu?

Here's the scores on the doors by province for today but Udon shows 32 not 17 as shown in another source.... is it a timing problem or summat ??
Whatever, Udon is the 6th highest for infections today.

Tamada, it seems to read that all shopping malls must close before 9PM beginning on Thursday, but I don't read it as totally close indefinitely from that time forward. What's your take on it?
Colossians 2:8-10...See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, which are based on human tradition and the spiritual forces of the world rather than on Christ. For in HIM dwells all the fullness of the GODHEAD bodily; and you are complete in HIM, who is the head of all principality and power.

Good question SFG. Since most malls are pretty dead by that time, it seems redundant, no? I guess there may be some hi-so malls in Bangkok that crack on late until the member clubs open. So maybe an earlier shuttering across the board but daily operations as usual... until that doesn't make a difference.

Don't the cinemas in the malls stay open until well after 9pm or are they shut already ? :-k

Mrs N has just said there has just been a public news broadcast & Bangkok is going into lockdown as of midnight.

I guess they must mean specific areas but nevertheless no one in or out. How will this affect all the Songkran travellers if they can’t go home for the foreseeable future?

when the initial Songkran rush out from BKK was anticipated the government waived the self quarantine for travelers. I suspect there will not be massive roadblocks preventing people from going home later this week. I fully expect an exponential take off of infections soon. The wife just called me from the temple to warn me a fellow working at the ice plant down the street was positive for COVID. Seeing as how those fellows drive all over town delivering ice and rarely wear a mask no surprises there. Nearby us is the Udon Baptist church have a 4 day retreat with 40 people or so attending. Nary a mask and lots of hymn singing. Hope they obtain some heavenly help in avoiding COVID... the mandated bar closures were merely a knee jerk reaction to the Tong Lor hot spot spread. I didn't hear a peep about the numerous and sundry temple parties or large family gatherings that likely will contribute to issues..

Bolting the stable door after the horse has bolted springs to mind ... the horse in this case being Covid...
Lets not forget some of the SK traveling back to bkk may unknowingly be carrying the virus and will stop in busy service stations etc en route it doesnt just end when they leave their home town province.

Can only see the numbers going up for the next few days maybe weeks.

This is all I have found. As of 4 hours ago they were talking of partial lockdown:-
