Big mistake by foreigners making assumptions about the Thai government I would say going by past experiences. -

The airlines are still ‘recovering’ from Covid add into that staff shortages meaning fewer flights then the high oil price which has fallen but now OPEC has cut the output forecast is oil will soon hit $100 again therefore I can’t flight prices coming down not unless the airlines struggle to sell seats. I can see the 45 days being reinstated in October then again we will have a new government so no one knows what the future holds. -

Of course, they could tell by their records that giving 45 days wasn’t making money, 30 days then the additional fee to extend it. -

You booked a flight knowing the 30 days was going to end on the 31st of March, t was never mentioned it was going to be extended was it ? it’s low season for Europeans now plus the high air fares isn’t exactly encouraging Europeans to come. -

Not many people in regular employment get 30 days holiday never mind 45 days not unless they have ‘banked’ their holidays or taking unpaid leave. Are the government are trying to get people on a visa rather than stamp them in, monetary issue ? -
I don’t think it would matter as the Thais would be able to buy alcohol some where, the ‘uprising’ would be with the foreigners who appear can’t go a few days with out consuming alcohol.

Amsterdam asks ‘wild’ young male British tourists to ‘stay away’
Jumbo1968 replied to webfact's topic in World News
I was out walking yesterday around 3.30pm Thai man got of his motor bike and urinated at the side of the road, not the first time I have seen it either. -
I drink Guinness in Cheap Charlie’s, it was 199 baht but now 209 baht the cheapest elsewhere is 240 baht. I have never tried the food but judging by the number of customers when I go around 4/5 o’clock it must be reasonably good. I can’t see how if some one eats there regularly the owner is making money ?

You obviously have never been hit in the face/eye with dirty water like I have, stupid farang ‘loaded’ his water pistol from the gutter and deliberately aimed it at my face. I had to be physically restrained or I would have knocked the fella out, grown men with water pistols obviously had a deprived upbringing.

I had a walk down Soi 7 and 8 yesterday around 5.30 most of the bars were empty, the ones on Beach Road had few customers.
