I'd love to see anything enforced here for more than five minutes, especially when so many people will be drunk and ignore it. A 24 hour crackdown?

The real question is, can they get the toy police to behave like law enforcement officials, for just a few days? If so, that would be the annual exception. It is a good idea. Throwing water at passing motorbikes is the height of lunacy. There are a lot of TV posters who think we should accept people riding motorbikes on the sidewalk, I wonder how many TV posters think people should accept the throwing of buckets of water on motorcycles? How about starting a poll? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were standing there giggling . I came very close to beating them up . 90 % there I cannot understand why you never, especially with it being farangs, it was only two, batter the first one and the other will run away.

HLover Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Wonder why they chose whitey to be the cover boy for this article? Seems the xenophobic powers could have easily found a shirtless, tattooed freak from lower Essex or a local Issan soi dweller, pissed out of his mind from last year.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nakhonandy Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 That will be interesting in Jomtien, it's only main and secondary roads. In other words they will carry on as normal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A) the streets in Bangkok are much quieter during the days of Songkhran (at least where I am- between Wongwien Yai, Asiatique and Silom) B ) "groups of people congregating on streets" = potential water- throwing, don't you agree? C) all streets are not lined endlessly with people...not even during Songkhran! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And on what planet are the areas around Silom, Charoen Khrung, Saphan Taksin (because that is "my road") safe and quiet? I get it: Songkhran has to be celebrated quiet with respect for Buddha and your elders...and everybody should wear "period pieces", where ever they venture, right?! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop exaggerating . People can still celebrate songram as they wish, they should just refrain from putting other people at risk of serious injury or dying . Play water fights with all your mates over the park until your heart is content , just dont involve people who dont want to play water fights and keep away from motorists . 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farcanell Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Regardless of the merit (lots of merit here... songkran water throwing is way out of control... and these years, with ice in the water, its verging on malicious), why on earth would the authorities want to make a statement that’s going to ultimately make them look stupid, once they fail to enforce these bans?
