What a disservice to the people of Thailand to allow unrestricted access to tourist from China at this time.  WHO has condemned the CCP for inaccurate and misleading covid infection data, and this was an organization that had been bought and paid for by the Chinese government 3 years ago when the pandemic first started.

Well, make your mind up. They either did, or didn't, 'buy and pay for' the WHO?

In any right thinking persons eyes, the idea is absolutely risible. Enjoy your evening.

For once @Poolie I agree. The idea of allowing flights to resume from China to Thailand is indeed risible. Do have a nice day

Not sure about "bought and paid for", but the Chinese authorities were, and still are, less than co-operative with the WHO.

OMG. CM now looks quickly at becoming in danger once again of being overrun with obnoxious groups of no manners and not knowing how to behave Chinese. I was talking to a born in CM Thai friend the other day and her abs her family and friends feelings are she and the CM locals plainly do not want them back as they are on the bottom of the desirables list. It is only the government who is out of touch.
 

Also many businesses were not  businesses of real CM folk or long time stayers but investors from other cities pushing the build. So they also don’t care about these people and their business either and would rather not have transplant investors coming in and taking up all the space to cater to these ungodly Chinese in bulk.
