Govt urged to promote 'working and learning at home'
The government should start promoting working and learning at home via online channels as a national policy amid the on-going Covid-19 outbreak and the PM 2.5 air pollution problem, said Bhumjai Thai party spokesman Settapong Malisuwan.
He said it would lessen the risk of Covid-19 infection and soften its impact on some businesses while students will not be affected by closure of their schools.
It is time for the government to promote this practice with regulations, he added .
He said the virus and PM2.5, even if they can be contained, could surge back anytime. " it is important to be well prepared"
