Oh dear. All of us dirty farang better start making other plans just in case. Vietnam? This man really does despise us. 

Once again TAT pull projections out of their ass.

I have a friend who has been through the SHA certification and described it as a nightmare. But now his bar/restaurant (its a double front with one half being tables and chairs, and the other half clearly a bar, and guess which side has people in it at night?) can openly sell alcohol while the small bar next door cannot. Can someone explain how this is a Covid measure?

Have any of these incompetents ever heard of interpol?

This complete idiot needs a swift injection but I won't talk about what kind.

And so the great reset to destroy the bar industry continues...

The measures, which include a ban on people who have not been vaccinated from entering public places, are to be submitted to the Centre for COVID-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) for approval.

That is not encouragement, it is punishment / coercion which no government should engage in.

Anutin lied about not being allowed into Switzerland. So how can you believe anything else he says?

Yet another flip flop. Only believe what is announced in the royal gazette because these clowns think that there is merit in making announcements to the press.

No image to damage. Thailand routinely scams tourists and expats.

Actually, this is great news. It has been so peaceful in Thailand since the bars were closed. There is no reason to rush the opening of these venues. This delay will enable more citizens to get vaccinated and prevent Covid infections and death. 

What a selfish, ignorant comment. Tell that to the owners of the thousands of small bars that are closed permanently. Tell that to the hundreds of thousands of people deprived an income. There is NO evidence that bar closures has ANY impact on the rate of vaccination. You must be some tee-totalling puritan like these clowns in government. 

Strange headline. It is possible they might consider thinking about it. And if they are telling the press that "The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is planning to inform the Thai Cabinet Committee" haven't they effectively already informed them? 

This is the puritanical asses in government getting their way. They want to destroy the bar industry. But with some pretty big business interests in this not happening I wonder whether there are some ugly fates for these self righteous clowns

In my town the police came to the bar soi. Drove past all the bars with Thais drinking, and stopped at the one with a couple of Farags. Hats on, torches out, recording video, and told to close (thankfully that's all) then on their way. Talked to a policeman I know and he said their position is that the Thais would just be sitting and talking but not drinking, and the Farangs would certainly be drinking. Can't make it up.

Not even a tiny little bit concerned. I remember the good old days when when a corrupt democracy produced anarchy under Yingluck. The woman was completely incompetent. I'll take the General and his ilk every time. The PM was elected by the way. I realize that may not fit your narrative but he was. 

 

Tell me this...who replaces Prayuth? Name one single politician who could lead a government that wouldn't be completely corrupt in six months. There are no choices. Prayuth was elected by a majority of Thais and has the overwhelming support of the Thai people. If there was an election tomorrow he's win again. 

 

Like many others on the way to 7/11? Secret meaning or just confused? 

 

 

 

 

Hmm. Prayut promised elections time after time but did not actually call one until he had rigged the result to guarantee his win. I have spoken to many Thai people asking what they think about him and every single time they laugh and say what a buffoon he is. I think you are sadly delusional about your beloved general.

Excellent comment, hahaha!

Yes. Also, the google search algorithm uses past searches to bring certain results to the top of the page. So if someone searched on , say, "best places to retire" and Thailand has in the past been a well reviewed option, the results will bring Thailand results to the top, and that is what people will naturally look at first. Just a self promoting <deleted> article.

Those who consume alcohol in proper restaurant and hotel settings typically do so responsibly. 

“Such environments rarely exhibit the crowded conditions within bars, pubs, clubs, etc.

Unfortunately he, like the government seems to have an image of large venues with dancing girls and hundreds of patrons when he talks about bars. None of them seem to recognise that there are tens of thousands of small bars where people gather in small numbers to enjoy a social drink and chat. These have been ignored and swept up in the bans imposed by this draconian puritanical government. The result already is permanent closures in fairly large numbers, and I cannot help thinking this is exactly the result they are seeking.

Sick in a coma in the iCU with no treatment or care and none of the administration caring one iota.

Welcome to Thailand. Show me your vaccination certificate. Show me your negative test certificate. Stay in a hotel that I designate. Don't leave the province for 7 days. Don't go to any entertainment venues. Pay me 500 baht. Have a nice stay!
