Zusammenfassung
The COVID-19 crisis has sweeping implications. The geopolitical landscape, coloured by the rivalry between the great powers, provided a complex political, economic and social environment in which the pandemic took effect. How countries manage the disease and procure the vaccines could add to their credibility and geopolitical capital. Thailand was praised for its handling of the pandemic during the first wave in 2020, managing to maintain a low transmission rate. However, vulnerabilities that manifested in a number of sectors coupled with untimely management from the government rendered Thailand less resilient when a new wave of the pandemic occurred in 2021. In this paper, Kasira Cheeppensook, PhD, analyses the systemic implication of the pandemic in Thailand.
