King Cotton, Do you have the latest on which Province is which colour? I'm particularly interested in Chiang Mai. Thanks

Fair question. I've looked for links on the full report but to no avail. Let's give my colleagues, @Faz and @KaptainRob, a mention and if they haven't got a link to the current colour zones, they'll more than likely know someone who has.

Chiang Mai is red, not dark red.

Many thanks KaptainRob for all the update info. Gov.UK have Thailand in general on their amber list and say I can return to Thailand 'but would prefer me not to'.

If not for the lack of traffic, fewer shoppers in malls, you'd not know there was a problem in CM.  LINE and other Thai social media platforms, incl TV, are full of anecdotal covid news which does nothing but scare the crap out of the ordinary folk.

1 important point is,
1. all people not have the right, to decide,
what other people, should and not should do.
1.2 but it looks as, at least many writers, think different.
-
2. this is why, most countries /population, are too big for, 1, democracy.
it should be, under 1 million people, per 1 democracy.
2.2 a democracy should never be used, to oppress speech and movement.
2.3 education helps, not months or years of, or 1 extreme, punishment.
2.3-4 well, how is it, to have a democracy and educated people ? :)
-
3. with, fully correct used, democracy,
any lockdown, in the world, had never happened,
because educated people, are healthy, so they go to check by itself,
3.2 and will not be deceived easily, by fear causing pictures, videos, etc. .
3.3 so tv /tell a vision, is not a source of facts.
