So these people are different to other foreigners and don't require hospital facilities etc if diagnosed with covid.

Sorry Thailand that is discrimination. Wars have been fought over less. (Ask Putin)

Well those 4 countries are Thailand's immediate neighbors so in a worse case scenario if there is a deluge of sick people from there overwhelming Thailand's health care they could be transferred back to their respective countries much easier than say someone from far away.

Analogy wise if my neighbor comes to my house and happens to fall sick I could easily send him back to his house as oppose to someone from another town.

Nope....Thailand is always there. I can always invite Thailand to Malaysia. More convenient that way with no restrictions.

Don't you worry, apart from a few "bitter" (??) or whatever commentators here, everyone working in the tourist industry, Thais, Ex-pats with businesses, foreign workers from neighbouring countries (many Cambodians working in the tourist industry where I am), are very much welcoming you back to Thailand. And that's a lot people whom, like everyone wishing to spend their holidays here, cannot wait (and that's an understatement) for all these now useless, non-sense restrictions to be scrapped forever so everybody at both ends can resume their lives as normal (no more this mad "new normal").

Passport of origin has nothing to do with covid rules. Yes every nationality is treated with the same Covid rules when entry to my country.
