Chinese Citizens Returning From Thailand Angry at Quarantine Policies

On Aug. 5, a group of Chinese people, mostly young students, returned to China from Thailand and had to go through a 14-day quarantine in a hotel in Yunnan Province. However, local authorities demanded that they turn in their passports and other ID documents before the quarantine. In addition, the quarantine fee is outrageously high. The returnees tried to resist, but the police arrived at the hotel to threaten them.
