Thailand Govt: Songkran holiday defer to July if Covid-19 cases remain at single digit


BANGKOK (Xinhua/ANN): The Thai government's Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) on Monday (June 1) suggested that a long holiday in July is being considered to make up for the cancellation of Songkran festivities that was supposed to be in April.

However, the CCSA said a July holiday is only possible if the Thai people are able to help bring the new Covid-19 cases to only one digit, or better at zero.
