"murder, theft, gambling, prostitution, and drunk driving" are different topics My point was that they do nothing about the above problems, so why does one expect them to do anything about people splashing water. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have recently clamped down on Visas, fake goods, burning, porn videos , licenses , street food sellers , chinese lanterns , hotels, land grabs and various other things, no reason why they cannot clamp down on songkran Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should hope so too, as your "middle class educated professionals" don't have to travel the roads on those awful little motorbikes either. Not for them the hot sun and awful water. It's wet you know. Can't have that. Turn the aircon up. Leave the mayhem and "anti social behavior to the hoi paloi and the peasants what...

swissie Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 PICTURE THIS in your mind: Pattaya: Walking street, Beach-Road, Second-Road = No booze, no water fights. Tourists unhappy. Some miss the booze, some miss the water. Some will miss both. How are "they" going to enforce it? Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That should at least mean that second rd will be included?

kevozman1 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 I really just wished it was two days of water mayhem, that didn't include showering motorcyclists. Being drunk is no excuse for acting like a savage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post inThailand Posted March 21, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 21, 2018 When they announce a ban it seems more people just ignore it. When was the last time a policeman was even seen out in the streets during songkran? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to see anything enforced here for more than five minutes, especially when so many people will be drunk and ignore it.
