    And people who have 'done the numbers' have found the Chinese to be the worlds top spenders on holiday.

     

    The whole world's tourist industry chases them but the dusty old expats in Thailand know better?

    Not at grass root levels...!!!

    Restaurants in Pattaya are open with the same guidelines as Bangkok. Many restaurants choose to remain closed because of those restrictions, the inability to sell alcohol and the fact that they would have insufficient customers to make opening viable.. Many markets never closed in Pattaya, but were restricted to selling food items only. They are now fully open. Beaches in Pattaya are closed to discourage tourists (primarily from Bangkok) to visit.

    I think you will find that restaurants in BKK allow seated customers whereas in Pattaya it is take away only..!!

    Of course the narrow minded would blame the government, that is what they do.

    The retailers are responsible for the sales and they should have taken steps to follow the governments ruling on social distancing, as well as the customers.

    if the retailers are incapable of implementing government policy then the government has every right to ban or restrict the sale of problematic goods.

    I disagree, the government when implementing restrictions or in words you may understand measures different from the norm, should think things through and at the very minimum, realise the implications they pose on others. Having said this I do agree that the government should have met with the traders and specified government acceptable requirements.
