there are only ancient laws in Thailand.... no need to mention any of them.. but look around ..

I don't agree.. there are people who surely deserve the death penalty, but it should be done instead of a live sentence.. Whe was the last one executed in Thailand?? serial killers and so so be executed..

but the entertainment venue, motorcycles with their racing motors, cars with advertising speakers are all allowed?? as the hotel maybe thinks there no guests sleeping in daytime?

It is true, not much will be earned on weekdays, but as Thai culture they don't care... Walked many times around and than a woman is screaming in the microphone and nobody is listening or even in the neighbourhood of the stand, but she pretends there a few hundreds watching and listening..So will be the same in the entertainment industry.. even if there are no guests the singers will sing and perform although nobody is there, but the shop must be open as it is allowed...

you have experience in night work it seems

do they use alcohol and drugs in those businesses too??

Why worry?? the night entertainment will be open too till 4 am...if that is allowed the airport has to be open too to let the millions of tourists who want to join the nightlife in Thailand come in.

Madness and brainless... death toll will rise, people will get more stressed by less good sleep, workers are getting overworked and don't get a social life anymore...and many more reasons.. Maybe they should let the people who decide this work after midnight. at least than they are doing something.. and the police?? they will be nowhere to be seen as they only work from 8 to 17.00 ...

outdated habits for people who don't deserve it... Is there never a update in this ridiculous show?? Respect has to be earned and can be showed in many other different ways

in facto easy... as it is Thai culture.... nobody.... The child is underaged and had a mental handicap. the parents were not involved, the government can't do anything about this, the weapon dealer and police had a misunderstanding so.... nobody responsible

Thank you for the explanation, I know, but it is still a very weak excuse, just as something happened that they could not help... Losing face in Thailand is bad, but if the reporters would stop with this kind excuses it would be much pleasant to read news... so much things are covered up

I never understand brake failure... It seem the first time they stop the truck and all the times they had to to stop for roads, traffic lights, restaurants to eat, never a problem, only in an accident there is a brake failure.. Besides that if a car is 5 years old he needs a paper that things are checked on the vehicle... I was last week and a car with a lot of black smoke was approved... so maybe they should start to do a real good check up ...

Strange action.. Maybe people don't want to leave and who is Anutin to push them to leave the country??Thailand has to learn that they can't control everybody all over the world. In their own country they do it, but that works not in other countries

And why should they listen to THailand????

not worth to comment on Americans.. They are people who think they own the world, but have a lot of problems inside their country that they can't solve such as racism, shooting because the law of gun posession, orthodox religions, and so on, but they like to comment on other countries or push to adapt their standards...

It shows how educated you are with this post...respect for other people is not in your dictionary

It is time to pass these bills.. waited for more than a decade already... Besides if they want to host the World Pride there is still a lot of work to do for equality for thi s group of people

And Thailand wants to becme greener and invest mor in EV's???? how is this to explain? Oh yeah Thailand is the land of contradictions... left hand doesn't know/car what the right hand is doing..

Gay marriage is boosting economies all over the world in the countries that have accepted it.. Thailand however could have accepted a long time already but deays it year after year.. A bid for the World pride in 2028 is too early I think as the country has to show that the LGBTQ+ movement is fully accepted with equal rights for several years... So start with the Gay Marriage asap

Stupidity is uncureable... Brainless decision

And the 1st of January everybody has to travel home, but it is normal a family day... Why not a day of on the 2nd of January instead of the 29th December??

They still don't have a clue about tourists and how to manage a tourist industry.

At night time no problems as the entertainment venues will open till 4 am..

The land of the unknowing.... Lonher openinghours means more alcohol consumption and drugs results will be more accidents, people more stressed by the noise of karaoke bars and other music pollution, and the people who work n the bars a far worse health, because they don't have a living anymore, as they have to sleep during daytime...And the worst part is the selling of alcohol during daytime to prevent accidents and at night when they are tired and drugged you can drink as much as you want... and for the tourists?? People who are in the bar the whole night are not the quality tourists they wnatto have and as long as there still underaged people found in the entertainment venues , it is more time to control and that than extend the openingshours

Probably another calender than I have as 30 December is Saturday and Sunday 31 Dece,ber brings us to Monday 1 January, which is a family day and with no extra days anymore everybody has to travel on the family day.. Probably there will 1 day added
