If this guy thinks this is a good idea then he should just open up everything that is indoors. There must be a way the good Thai folk can oust him for having one banana short of a bunch.

I’m assuming @AlexPTY is referring to the air being forced, i.e. being returned to the room either cooled or heated, as the user requires. 

 

From the blurb one A/C manufacturer put out on the Internet. (Couldn’t be arsed noting their name): ”The air conditioner sucks air into the ducts through a vent. This air is used to cool gas in the evaporator, and as the heat is removed from the air, it's cooled. Ducts then blow air back.”

 

Good to read that the creative arts/film industry got a hearing but haven’t promises of tax relief and soft loans been made before to other sectors??  Is anything real likely to happen?

Maybe - maybe not - probably not. 

But if those one million wealthy retirees/crimes pay for that new Visa quickly, then they will have money to ........................  bail out Thai Airlines? buy another Chinese infrastructure project (pay for some already started)??

Not a movie geek myself, what I think would be better is too looking into the opening of the gyms

Any idea to put significant numbers of people in an enclosed space for a prolonged time with just circulating air is brilliant!

If your intention is to spread the virus.
