In a letter sent to the editor-in-chief of Thai Rath newspaper, Consul General Val Simon Roque said that the characterization of the said headline from a Thai newspaper’s article was “inappropriate”, “insensitive”, and “unhelpful” at a time when Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) members were collaborating in the fight against the coronavirus disease.
He assured that Filipino teachers – as well as other returning Filipinos – were following the health and quarantine protocols in Thailand.
