Then it's achieved its aim Really? I assumed the aim was to make us all even more miserable than we already are. Using your logic, they might as well ban alcohol permanently, as many more people in Thailand will die from the effects of imbibing the stuff than from the wretched virus. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But not to worry I am more confused as to why TVF, which has been plying its trade for so many years does not have an emoji (Reaction) category for W**ker, which is one I would have used on many previous occasions had it been an option, but when or ever if it arrives I will gladly dedicate my first utilisation of to you, because I think it would perfectly describe my feelings towards the provider of each and every comment you produce!

Popular Post JAG Posted April 17, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 17, 2020 8 hours ago, BobbyL said: Still yet to be given any reason as to why only Thailand needs to impose and now seemingly extend an alcohol ban whilst other nations do not. Edit: The alcohol ban over Songkran made sense to stop parties. That has now ended. It is very simple. A variety of officials, in a variety of uniforms, are all making sure that their "markers" are being laid down. Whilst perhaps it was initially an attempt to curb Songkran parties, it is now an exercise in personal power. "I am important, I say something, and everyone has to do what I say!' Yes, I can live without a drink, but I very much like to relax with a beer or a whisky soda of an evening. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lkv Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 (edited) 7 hours ago, Fruit Trader said: Because of the excessive number of irresponsible adults who will get drunk congregate and attract more irresponsible adults. A visit to local worker camps and rented land slums will provide clues to why alcohol should be limited in these times. And because low educated male Thais (the majority of Thailand), whilst getting poorer and jobless, will get drunk, start beating their wifes, then take the guns, swords and other things they own, and go in the streets to rob and kill for money. Hopefully, it will not be as bad as in Indonesia (see below). Edited April 17, 2020 by lkv 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I can make it to at least May 5th, or else I will need to stop my morning coffee with bailey's and just drink it over ice to extend out a little longer... I am down to three bottles of wine. Would you like to sale some of those bottles????? Figured it will last till the 20th, most for our Saturday evening meal. Now Nonthaburi may extend!

I am at a loss to see how banning alcohol, until the end of April, will stop anyone getting Covid-19. By your reasoning banning alcohol permanently will stop some people getting the virus! How does that work?? This ban came about because a bunch of Thais sitting outside the 7/11s drinking at all hours of the night. The Thai police have no control over the people and can’t stop it. So, lets just ban the sale of alcohol. We have discussed this before, the lack of authority or respect for the police. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naw! part of the agenda to reduce people to slaves so they have to beg to go to work so they can feed themselves and their families, they want nothing but total obedience from the masses -working out well for them so far!
