What is interesting now is that the Bangkok Post reported that a female employee of the Krystal Bar who was identified as a 'Public Relations Officer' (PRO?) is responsible for introducing an outbreak of COVID-19 to Hua Hin via the Maya Exclusive Pub. Significantly, the Bangkok Post chose to illustrate their articles on this news story with pictures of a street where many Public Relation Officers used to look after foreign tourists – back in the days when Thailand had a tourist market. Importantly, the two entertainment outlets responsible for the spread of COVID-19 are establishments that would normally see very few foreign tourists.

Actually, we thais have been forced to living with the most stupid and shameless government in the modern history of Thailand. Because of them, want to exploit the benefit of the COVID-19 vaccine to give credit to the monarchy, so we thais now end up with just very few hi-society people can take the vaccine. And the time pass by, everything seemly not better but keep getting wrost..😿❤️🌎👍

It breaks my heart to see this wonderful country in such pain and the continued corruption that causes so much of it.

Problem is, a significant % of the population support these mobsters and vote for them time and time again. The progressive movement is miles behind.
