Global coronavirus devastates tourism in central Bangkok

I knew coronavirus was denting tourism in Thailand, it’s inevitable, but to see it with my own eyes in central Bangkok was startling.  The morning commute is still fairly busy, but once that rush subsides you are not left with many other people along the streets of the Sukhumvit Road.

This vlog was shot on March 17th 2020 and so things will get far worse before they start to get better.

Hardly surprisingly, taxi drivers are now happy to switch their meters on when you ask them too. They are pleased just to have some custom!
