Safety and Security

The Kingdom of Thailand continue to attract thousands of tourists and new residents from around the world, all drawn to its diverse landscapes, world-famous cuisine, and ancient culture. Although tourists and residents of Thailand can enjoy relative calm and safety throughout their time in the Kingdom, it’s important to be aware of the current realities facing Thailand.

Political Situation in Thailand

The government structure of Thailand is known as a Constitutional Monarchy, currently under King Maha Vajiralongkorn, who ascended the throne in December 2016 following the October 2016 passing of King Bhumibol Adulyadej.

Since 2005, Thailand has experienced many instances of political turmoil which include a military coup d’état in 2006 that resulted in the removal of then-Prime Minister Thaksin Chinawat, followed by anti-government protests and conflicts between competing political factions for several years. In August 2014, Royal Thai Army General Prayut Chan-ocha was appointed Prime Minister, following another coup d’état a few months before.

Today, the political situation in most of Thailand is relatively calm, with the new constitution having been signed in April 2017. However, the Southern region of the country continues to experience unrest and violence due to ethnic and nationalist insurgents. Officials continue to advise tourists and residents to exercise caution when traveling to these areas, and to always stay informed of the current political climate.

Thailand has a healthy and fairly consistent system of information and journalism, where the most current political events and realities are covered both in English and Thai. One such outlet is. Read More

Safety in Thailand: Road Travel

Traveling within Thailand is relatively simple with buses, trains, planes, and boats making it possible to reach nearly all areas of the country rather easily. Within the city of Bangkok taxis, motorcycles, cars, and an extensive subway system connects the entire city. For those who choose to drive in Thailand, there are some important points to consider regarding the laws and regulations that govern driving in Thailand. The website Driving in Thailand provides comprehensive information on the rules, regulations, and expectations that come along with driving in Thailand.

  • Situasi COVID-19 di Thailand

WHO - Pandemi penyakit virus Corona (COVID-19)

Penyakit Coronavirus (COVID-19) adalah penyakit menular yang disebabkan oleh virus corona yang baru ditemukan.  Kebanyakan orang yang terinfeksi virus COVID-19 akan mengalami penyakit pernapasan ringan hingga sedang dan sembuh tanpa memerlukan perawatan khusus.  Orang tua, dan mereka yang memiliki masalah medis seperti penyakit kardiovaskular, diabetes, penyakit pernapasan kronis, dan kanker lebih mungkin untuk terkena penyakit yang serius.
 

Tetaplah ikuti berita-berita seputar wabah COVID-19. Informasi-informasi tersebut tersedia di situs web WHO dan melalui otoritas kesehatan masyarakat nasional dan lokal Anda.  Sebagian besar negara di dunia telah mengumumkan kasus COVID-19 dan banyak yang sudah terkena wabah baru ini.  Memang, pihak berwenang di tiongkok dan beberapa negara lain telah berhasil memperlambat wabah mereka.  Namun, situasinya tidak dapat diprediksi, jadi tetaplah jaga saluran informasi secara teratur untuk berita terbaru.
 

Cara terbaik untuk mencegah dan memperlambat penularan adalah dengan mengetahui dengan baik tentang virus COVID-19, penyakit yang ditimbulkannya, dan cara penyebarannya.  Lindungi diri Anda dan orang lain dari infeksi dengan mencuci tangan atau menggunakan obat gosok berbasis alkohol sesering mungkin dan tidak menyentuh wajah Anda.  Virus COVID-19 menyebar terutama melalui tetesan air liur atau cairan hidung saat orang yang terinfeksi batuk atau bersin, jadi Anda juga harus mempraktikkan etika pernapasan (misalnya, batuk dengan siku yang tertekuk).
 

Saat ini, belum ada vaksin atau pengobatan khusus untuk COVID-19.  Namun, ada banyak uji klinis yang sedang berlangsung yang mengevaluasi pengobatan potensial.  WHO akan terus memberikan informasi terbaru segera setelah temuan klinis tersedia.
 

Anda dapat mengurangi peluang terinfeksi atau menyebarkan COVID-19 dengan melakukan beberapa tindakan pencegahan sederhana:

  • Bersihkan tangan secara teratur dan menyeluruh dengan antiseptik berbasis alkohol atau cuci dengan sabun dan air.  Mengapa?  Mencuci tangan dengan sabun dan air atau menggunakan antiseptik berbasis alkohol dapat membunuh virus yang mungkin sudah ada di tangan Anda.
  • Pertahankan jarak setidaknya 1 meter (3 kaki) antara Anda dan orang lain.  Mengapa?  Ketika seseorang batuk, bersin, atau berbicara, mereka menyemprotkan tetesan cairan kecil dari hidung atau mulut yang mungkin mengandung virus.  Jika terlalu dekat, Anda bisa menghirup tetesannya, termasuk virus COVID-19, jika orang tersebut sakit.
  • Hindari pergi ke tempat keramaian.  Mengapa?  Ketika orang berkumpul di tengah keramaian, Anda lebih mungkin melakukan kontak dekat dengan seseorang yang mengidap COVID-19 dan lebih sulit untuk menjaga jarak fisik 1 meter (3 kaki).
  • Hindari menyentuh mata, hidung dan mulut.  Mengapa?  Tangan menyentuh banyak permukaan dan dapat menangkap virus.  Setelah terkontaminasi, tangan dapat memindahkan virus ke mata, hidung, atau mulut Anda.  Dari sana, virus bisa masuk ke tubuh Anda dan menginfeksi Anda.
  • Pastikan Anda, dan orang-orang di sekitar Anda, mengikuti etika pernapasan yang baik.  Ini berarti menutupi mulut dan hidung dengan siku yang tertekuk atau tisu saat batuk atau bersin.  Kemudian segera buang tisu bekas dan cuci tangan.  Mengapa?  Tetesan itu menyebarkan virus.  Dengan mengikuti kebersihan pernapasan yang baik, Anda melindungi orang-orang di sekitar Anda dari virus seperti pilek, flu, dan COVID-19.
  • Tetap di rumah dan isolasi diri meski dengan gejala ringan seperti batuk, sakit kepala, demam ringan, hingga sembuh.  Minta seseorang membawakan Anda persediaan peralatan atau konsumsi pribadi.   Jika harus ke luar, kenakan masker agar tidak menulari orang lain.  Mengapa?  Menghindari kontak dengan orang lain akan melindungi mereka dari kemungkinan COVID-19 dan virus lainnya.
  • Jika Anda mengalami demam, batuk, dan kesulitan bernapas, dapatkan bantuan medis, tetapi hubungi telepon terlebih dahulu jika memungkinkan dan ikuti petunjuk dari otoritas kesehatan setempat.  Mengapa?  Otoritas nasional dan lokal akan memiliki informasi terkini tentang situasi di daerah Anda.  Menelepon terlebih dahulu akan memungkinkan penyedia layanan kesehatan Anda dengan cepat mengarahkan Anda ke fasilitas kesehatan yang tepat.  Ini juga akan melindungi Anda dan membantu mencegah penyebaran virus dan infeksi lainnya.
  • Ikuti perkembangan informasi terbaru dari sumber terpercaya, seperti WHO atau otoritas kesehatan lokal dan nasional Anda.  Mengapa?  Otoritas lokal dan nasional paling baik ditempatkan untuk memberi nasihat tentang apa yang harus dilakukan orang di daerah Anda untuk melindungi diri mereka sendiri.

Penilaian Risiko Situasi COVID-19

Berdasarkan situasi wabah gelombang baru, terlihat bahwa pola ini berbeda dengan gelombang pertama.  Kasus gelombang baru ini ditemukan pada wisatawan yang kembali dari luar negeri dan pada orang-orang yang memiliki kontak dekat orang asing atau dalam kelompok penyedia layanan kesehatan.  Gelombang baru ini berbeda dengan gelombang wabah pertama di mana kasus telah ditemukan pada sekelompok orang yang bergabung dengan kerumunan yang menyebabkan penyebaran penyakit dengan cepat.  Kelompok risiko gelombang baru ini adalah pekerja berusia antara 25 dan 60 tahun yang memiliki peluang tinggi untuk bepergian dan menghubungi banyak orang.  Sebagian besar kasus baru yang dikonfirmasi dalam periode ini adalah orang-orang yang bergabung dengan kerumunan pesta akhir tahun lalu dan terbatas kepada kasus yang dikonfirmasi sebelumnya.  Ini adalah jenis wabah yang dapat dicegah dengan menerapkan jarak fisik.  Oleh karena itu, tindakan pengendalian penyakit harus difokuskan pada kelompok besar untuk mengurangi penyebaran penyakit ke orang berikutnya.  Kerja sama dari masyarakat umum merupakan faktor penting dalam pengendalian wabah dengan memakai masker, sering mencuci tangan, mengurangi perjalanan yang tidak perlu, terutama di tempat-tempat berisiko dengan orang yang ramai, dan memindai aplikasi Thaichana atau Morchana selama perjalanan.  Jika seseorang mengalami demam, batuk, sakit tenggorokan, atau kehilangan bau dan rasa, segera dapatkan bantuan medis dan ungkapkan riwayat perjalanan sebanyak mungkin.  Instansi pemerintah harus memantau pelaksanaan langkah-langkah pengendalian termasuk jarak sosial di daerah berisiko tinggi dengan orang-orang yang ramai seperti pub, bar dan restoran.

Informasi terbaru untuk Wisatawan ke Thailand:

  • Informasi tentang Situasi Penyakit Menular Saat Ini

Situasi Thailand: MOPH diperbarui pada 15 Jan 2021

  • Departemen Pengendalian Penyakit menyarankan masyarakat untuk berhati-hati terhadap diare dan menganjurkan prinsip “makan makanan yang baru dimasak dan bersih”: Diare adalah penyakit menular yang disebabkan oleh makanan dan air yang terkontaminasi bakteri, virus, parasit, racun dan bahan kimia.  Musim dingin, suhu rendah akan berkontribusi pada pertumbuhan virus.  Virus juga mudah tersentuh dan cepat menyebar, seperti pada air minum dan es.  Patogen yang paling umum adalah rotavirus dan noro virus, yang sering menyebabkan penyakit pada anak kecil.  Menyebabkan sakit perut, diare, demam rendah, kelelahan, mual dan muntah karena virus.  Virus ini menyebabkan penyerapan nutrisi mukosa usus menurun.  Orang dengan dehidrasi akan mengalami gejala yang parah seperti bibir kering, pengeluaran urine berkurang, mata cekung, dll. Ini pertanda yang berbahaya.  Pada bayi dan anak kecil, dapat menyebabkan syok, pingsan dan bahkan mengancam nyawa.  Orang tua harus menjaga makanan anak dengan hati-hati.

            The best first aid for diarrhea is drinking Oral Rehydration Salts(ORS) solution to prevent dehydration. The Department of Disease Control advises people to always follow good personal hygiene, i.e. “eat freshly-cooked and clean food, use serving spoon and wash hands often”, and drink only safe water. All individuals should avoid consuming foods that are left overnight out of refrigeration or foods with unusual smell. Food handlers should practice good personal hygiene including washing hands often especially before cooking food and after using toilets. Paying attention to food cleanliness will help prevent pathogen contamination. In case of having wounds on hands, food handlers should always wear plastic gloves while cooking.
  • On February 1, 2021, schools started teaching as usual except in the Samut Sakhon area where still study online. In order to prevent and control COVID-19 in educational institutions, the Department of Disease Control therefore encourages educational institutions to provide knowledge, advice, and practices for COVID-19 prevention to students, teachers, staff in educational institutions, and parents by giving intensive and continuing practice. Emphasize daily screening before entering the school. wear masks 100% , social distance, sufficient hand washing points. Refrain from organizing activities with common contact. Clean up high risk contact area in educational institutions.
  • On February 2, 2021, Dr. Opas Karnkawinpong Director-General of the Department of Disease Control said. There is still rain in some areas of the South causing the area to be flooded with water in the streets. People should be careful of leptospirosis due to a long walk in the mud or in the water there is a risk of infection with leptospirosis. It enters the body through wounds, abrasions and ingestion of contaminated food or water. Practices to prevent leptospirosis are as follows: 1. Avoid wading in mud or immersing in water for a long time. If you need to walk through the water Always wear clean boots or plastic bags. To prevent feet from direct contact with water If there is a wound, it should be covered with waterproof plaster. Wash your hands regularly and wash your feet with soap and water frequently. And take a shower immediately after finishing work 3. If there is an acute high fever, headache, aches and pains immediate to see doctor.
