ð§ĩ#Thailand's foreign minister has invited his fellow #ASEAN counterparts to an "informal" dialogue to discuss ways to help resolve #Myanmar #coup crisis, into its 3rd year.

I understand that a few @ASEAN foreign ministers from nations like #Malaysia #Singapore & current @asean_ri chair #Indonesia will not participate in the talks mooted by #Thailand to take place in #Bangkok June 18-19. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
In the #Thai invite letter to @ASEAN foreign ministers, which I've also seen, @MFAThai minister Don says the "meeting is intended to be an informal dialogue that could be part of the initial steps of the #Myanmar peace process" #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar

Um diese Stunde vor genau einem Jahr haben wir einen Flieger geboarded der uns in 13 Stunden fÞr 13 Wochen zu einer kleinen Rundreise an SÞdostasiatischer KÞste entlang und dann noch ein bisschen den Tonle Sap und den Mekong rauf brachte. Ich bin versucht mich auf Twitter nochmal
reinzusetzen und die Tour nochmals mit ein paar Zeilen nachhallen zu lassen. Wir hatten nicht wirklich etwas geplant. Wir werden uns erst mal in Bangkok in eine schÃķne ruhige Lodge begeben und noch ein bisschen Travelgear aufrÞsten. Die AUA fliegt direkt. Bald wird's warm. t.b.c.
Mmm, dieser herrlich feuchte Hitzeschwall, in dem wir uns nun 3 Monate bewegen werden. Immer nur so schnell gehen, dass man nicht ins Schwitzen kommt ist die Devise. Mit der City Line in immere tiefere HÃĪuserschluchten bis zur Endstation und dann mit dem TukTuk ins geliebte Tewet

1. To stamp out pursuers for #Thailanddemocracy, a sweeping emergency decree was just announced, under which #Thai government banned mass gatherings, imposed media meltdown and can mobilize troops to crack down dissents.

3. Under the decree, media meltdown was imposed, banning media nationwide from publishing news or info (incl online) that are regarded by the regime as âinciting fear among the publicâ. International media like @BBCWorld and @CNN covering #āļĄāđāļāļ14āļāļļāļĨāļē in Thailand were blocked.

2. With arrestees from 11yo kid to 84yo elderly, #hkpolice is now staging the biggest political purge across generations in the city, especially at the time when #hkgov attempting to rewrite history, whitewash #policebrutality and censor textbooks.

This as Thailand plans to further extend its #StateofEmergency. Country had introduced the decree since late March due to #COVID19. But it has been extending it on a monthly basis. Had already done so 3 times. Latest decree will expire July 31. Will be 4th time if extended again
Some #Thai citizens have staged protests against the extension of the #StateofEmergency, saying the law is unnecessary & accusing the government of using the decree to suppress & intimidate the people. But authorities have consistently insisted decree is needed to manage #COVID19

#Thailand #PM #Prayut insisted internal changes/shake-up within ruling #PalangPracharat party will have no impact on a cabinet reshuffle. Insists any reshuffle & its timing will be based solely on his own decision. Recently 18 key execs quit, prompting cabinet change speculation
1 of #Thailand's Deputy Prime Minister #Somkid had just commented about the internal squabbles of the ruling #PalangPracharat party on Monday as seen here bangkokpost.com/thailand/generâĶ
#Thailand #PM spokeswoman @DrNarumonP says Mr #Prayut is busy with other matters, hence unable to hold his regular presser today. Speaking on behalf of the #PM, insists extending the #StateofEmergency till end June is for the sole purpose of curbing #Covid19 & to not see 2nd wave
@DrNarumonP adds the extension of the #StateofEmergency till end June (Will be 3 months since introduction) is based on #health officials' advisory & not because of #politics as some have accused the #Thai govt of continuing the decree to prolong its grip/control over the people
#Thailand #PM spokeswoman confirms government is setting up own panel to oversee the restructuring of #ThaiAirways. This will be headed by current #DPM #Wissanu including reps from #Transport #StockExchange #Finance. Govt had forced carrier to go under Bankruptcy Court Protection
#Thailand #PM @prayutofficial in opening remarks at 1st virtual #ASEAN leaders' summit urged 10 nations to prevent region from becoming an epicentre for #COVID19 #coronavirus #āđāļāļ§āļīāļ19. Said region needs cooperation to flatten curve, not let virus overtake healthcare capabilities
#Thailand #PM @prayutofficial at virtual #ASEAN leaders' summit cited how #COVID19 #coronavirus #āđāļāļ§āļīāļ19 has greatly impacted lives of regional citizens & the economies. Called on 10 members to work together to help revive the economy. Also updated the bloc on #Thai measures
#Thailand #PM @prayutofficial spokeswoman said the PM at #ASEAN summit proposed 5 ideas like an ASEAN & ASEAN+3 of #China #Japan #SouthKorea "Response Fund" to combat #COVID19 #coronavirus #āđāļāļ§āļīāļ19 by reprioritizing 10% of existing funds between 2 groups of nations
#Thailand #PM #Prayut Chan-o-cha addressing the nation now on #COVID19 #coronavirus measures as nation sees 104 new cases today, pushing the total number up to 1,875 with 15 deaths.
#Thailand #PM #Prayut has announced a #nationwide #curfew from 10pm to 4am BKK time. This in addition to all the other #COVID19 #coronavirus preventive measures already in existence in country like closures of #pubs #clubs #spas #schools #sportingstadiums #malls #parks
Soon after I interviewed the owner of a few #bars/#pubs/restaurants in #Bangkok #Thailand along famous #KhaoSan road, #police came around to ask such establishment to close for 14 days as part of government rule. This shows confusion on what's defined/identified as venues to shut
#Bangkok #Thailand #KhaoSan road not the same. #Bars #Pubs closed after #police arrived to inspect on 1st day of govt law enacted for #COVID19 #coronavirus. Pubs/restaurants were open before police came as they thought they were considered restaurants, not affected by regulation
Another famous street #SoiCowboy in #Bangkok #Thailand empty with all #bars/#pubs shuttered according to #Thai rule announced on Tues to manage #COVID19 #coronavirus #āđāļāļ§āļīāļ19 #āđāļāđāļĢāļāđāļēāđāļ§āļĢāļąāļŠ #āđāļ§āļĢāļąāļŠāđāļāđāļĢāļāđāļē #āđāļ§āļĢāļąāļŠāđāļāđāļĢāļāđāļēāļŠāļēāļĒāļāļąāļāļāļļāđāđāļŦāļĄāđ2019.

#Thailand announces 1 more new #coronavirus #COVIDãž19 of a #British #UK citizen, the 1st Brit to have virus in #Bangkok. He's a 43 yr old business consultant who flew from #London, transit in #HongKong before flying to Thailand. Checked himself into hospital with fever on Mar 3
This brings total number of confirmed #COVIDãž19 #coronavirus cases in #Thailand to 48. But authorities still waiting on 2nd lab test of 1 more case of #Thai lady who returned from #SouthKorea. Her 1st lab test was positive for virus
#Thailand #Health Ministry says NO compulsory/mandatory #quarantine for those entering from recently-classified #COVIDãž19 #coronavirus #infection zones of #China #HongKong #Macau #SouthKorea #Italy #Iran if they have no symptoms of virus
#Thailand #DPM & #Health Minister #Anutin at presser announcing 3 new cases of a 65 yr-old grandpa with fever for 3 days before hospital admission, a grandma & 8-yr-old boy with no travel history but from same family. Total #coronavirus #COVIDãž19 cases in country now at 40
2nd day in a row that #Thailand #Health Ministry announced new #coronavirus #COVIDãž19 cases. Total cases in country is 40. So far, 24 of them have already been discharged, 16 still in hospital.
The elderly couple who make up 2 of the 3 new #Coronavirus #COVIDãž19 cases in #Thailand had come back from #Hokkaido #Japan. #Thai #DPM, #Health Minister urges citizens to not be enticed by cheap airfares to travel overseas during this period
#Thailand has decided to list #COVIDãž19 as 1 of top 14 dangerous communicable #diseases in country. Others on list include #smallpox, #Ebola #SARS. Doing so will mean government can order patients/people suspected of being infected with #coronavirus be #quarantined, investigated
In a bizarre twist, newly-dissolved #Thailand #opposition party #FutureForward @FWPthailand has accused #PM #Prayut of working with ex-#Malaysia #PM #Najib to suppress the truth/information on allegations of #corruption regarding #1MDB. Mr Najib is currently facing trial for that
Now-dissolved #Thailand #opposition #FutureForward @FWPthailand also accused #Thai #PM #Prayut & his government of allowing #fugitive #Malaysian financier #JhoLow, linked to #1MDB scandal to travel in & out of Thailand freely while he was wanted by #interpol between 2016 & 2018
This comes 1 day before #Thailand #parliament is set to start #censure debate targeting 6 ministers including #PM #Prayut. But @FWPthailand executives including @Pannika_FWP who spoke at event accusing #Thai PM of suppressing info to apparently help #Malaysia's #Najib cannot join
#Thailand #Army Chief #Apirat was emotional when he held a presser to address the #koratshooting. 29 people(excluding shooter)were killed, almost 60 injured. He admitted lapses in the military base camp weapons storage facility but insisted he will not step down for the incident
#Thailand #Army Chief #Apirat admitted because the rouge soldier was a familiar face, the security had let their guard down resulting in stolen weapons & vehicle in #koratshooting #āļāļĢāļēāļāļĒāļīāļāđāļāļĢāļēāļ. But he said the army will enhance the weapons storage security without giving details
#Thailand #Army Chief #Apirat also admitted the military may have many dubious projects/transactions but he has been trying to rectify situation, punish any culprits found guilty. #āļāļĢāļēāļāļĒāļīāļāđāļāļĢāļēāļ It's been reported the rouge soldier went on a shooting spree over land monetary issue
A #Westerdam cruise ship with more than 2,000 people may not dock in #Thailand #LaemChabang on Feb 13 after all given how #Thai #DPM #AnutinCharnvirakul has just posted a rejection on his FB saying docking not allowed.Ship has been turned away by many due to fear of #coronavirus
Given how #Thailand #DPM #Anutin announced how #Westerdam cruise ship will not be allowed to dock in country, many onboard expressing worry/confusion on what final decision is. The ship, turned away by many like #Japan #Philippines was to dock on Feb 13 #LaemChabang #coronavirus
#Thailand #Health Ministry just confirmed at presser the #Westerdam cruise ship CANNOT dock in country #LaemChabang. Government maintains it received request but never granted permission in the 1st place to allow ship to dock as other ports had already rejected ship #coronavirus

#Thailand #PM spokeswoman @DrNarumonP has revealed PM @prayutofficial has ordered #masks to be given free to those in #Bangkok from today till Sunday. #coronavirus #āđāļ§āļĢāļąāļŠāđāļāđāļĢāļāļēāļŠāļēāļĒāļāļąāļāļāļļāđāđāļŦāļĄāđ2019.
