Leo is probably the best of a dodgy lot, Leo recipe was created by a German Brewmaster.

Coffee shops!

Yet by far the biggest sellers in the country!

I guess somebody needs to introduce "Anna" to Twitter, Instagram, Only Fans, Snapchat, etc.........the industry has changed and is thriving!!

This place must be great payers!!

They might not be competent but you can rest assured they are very rich......now!!

Thailand in a nutshell!

Same stuff, different labels on the bottles.....ka-ching$$$$

You are 25 years late!

Omicron , acronym = Moronic !! BTW, as of today Indonesia has put the quarantine requirement back up to 7 nights form previously 3., my guess is most countries may do similar.

All the info the government need to not open bars/entertainment venues ????

They burried the street light cables in our soi, here is proof!!

Yes, open

I can see a problem after the bars, clubs etc. do finally open, you get 1 Covid cluster case stemming from an entertainment venue and BOOM!! the knee jerk government will just blanket shut everything again for months!

South of Rayong, Laem Mae Pim - exceptionally clean beach, Grand Blue Resort and Beach club is very good, my 40 minute drive place of choice for a quick break!

Do a bit more digging and you will find that they are not "red zones", Chonburi still is.

Just tell the world why dont you!!

Correct.

Good times indeed!!

Unfortunately that "one thing in particular" is seen as a blight on the face of Thailand by some puritans and government officials, seems now they are hell bent on killing it completely!

Usually happens twice, around now and around end of November. Nothing new!

Restaurants are open - not serving booze, officially ???? all bars remain shut, offically ???? there are no nightlife establishments open. Officially shops can still only sell alchohol between 11am and 2pm, many shops in Ban Chang received warnings this week. The only place officially open in Rayong province is Ko Samet.

Definately not farang - that would have been a screaming big headline with names and nationalities, you can rest assured as none of that was mentioned it will be local - that is the way of the media here!

Pretty tame, usually 10 on 1 for the locals!

Nice well kept village, small but nice pool area and gym. Fiine wide access roads and good security. Very handy shop in front, look for the red, white and blue "Ban Chang Expat Mart" !! Welcome to Ban Chang!
