Japan, Korea and Italy are Authoritarianism as well?? They are losing grip even after Chinese and WHO warned them.
The jury is still very much out on that. Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, Myanmar, Laos, Cambodia - give it 12-18 months before we make any categorical declarations about these countries.
We shall see, I suppose. That's all I was saying - it's very early days to say which country has handled this well or not.
Vietnam has already started force quarantining passengers from South Korea.
Vietnam operates a ‘brutal’ militarized ring quarantine which is extremely effective. The SK residents will not be going to a militarized area but all VN exposed to them will. SK residents go to a hospital that has been sprayed and decontaminated.
Compare this with the US and I’d argue I’d feel safer in Vietnam than here.
