"She said there may be no foreign tourists but she can serve Thais in the meantime, at least that would be something."

So she thinks Thais would pay the prices charged to tourists ??

Irish pubs, renowned for their bustling atmosphere, have presented the government with a plan to limit drinking to table service, with no live music and staggered access to toilets

So normal access to the toilets !! ????????

We definitely need another bloodless coup???????? That'll fix it.

The last 2, the airport closure, etc etc did nothing to the baht.

Even cutting interest rates made it stronger.

Sorry. I'm a glass half full kinda guy. Less than 5 weeks. Time to plan the party.

With most places shuttered up and most of the staff returned to the villages, 5 weeks isn't long enough to get things up and running.

And where are the customers supposed to be coming from ?

They say parks are open but the National Parks are still closed ?

Does any expat go to these ?  The double/triple/quadruple pricing stops that

What about Baht appreciation?  Thailand has slim to no chance at exports with a Baht this high.

When the truth be known the Baht will collapse...along with the Euro..Sterling and Greenback will be the strongest currencies to have

And when will that ever be ??

So were the establishments that failed to comply shut down ??

Whoever gets the job must prioritise sorting out the inane strength of the baht.

Exports will never recover when goods are priced so high.

I believe "fun parks" would cover Harborland. 

What I find a bit weird is the 1 pot per 1 person suki rule. You can be locked up with the family all month, but can't eat the same suki ?

It's purely a sales campaign.

Fleet is open, but only for Thais.

Ac/DC just next to Fleet is open to all, albeit with dual pricing.

No idea about Marine, they were demanding your passport even before the virus started so nobody goes there.

TAT released a flier showing some attractive green fee rates at various courses around Pattaya -- but these prices (about half the usual rate) are only for Thais.

They simply open only one entrance and give you a piece of paper with the time when you entered. This you will have to show upon leaving. 

What would happen if you're in for too long ?? 

Or would you get hauled out as the 2-hour mark arrives ??????????

Having never done hard drugs - even smoked them - is it normal that a bar girl will come back to your hotel/condo and do hard drugs with you ? Would have thought she would have had more sense.

 

 

Perhaps it was part of the deal. Tough times for the girls, the going rate now 300bt in Buakhow
