The booze ban was never necessary. These four regions continuing it after it has finished makes even less sense. 

Especially as I live in one of them. PML

I thought it was only ‘farangs’ who were desperate for the ban to end. At Villa yesterday, and the amount of people around the alcohol aisle was nuts. People were genuinely excited they could buy a drink again. Looking at it like it was some brand new product that’s just gone on the shelves here.

Buddhists and Muslims aren't supposed to drink alcohol in the first place so there's nothing wrong with the ban. Most people in Thailand are Buddhists followed by Muslims.

 

This should be taken as an opportunity for those people to switch to healthier drinks like fruit juice and/or green tea.

most fruit juice and green tea here is dripping in sugar and other nasty preservatives

How do you cope with the madness all around without alcohol

They would likely do a better job ????

 

Yes.  Although I am not a big drinker myself, I have always been a little wary of those who abstain altogether. Bit like those who abstain from any one of sex, coffee, cream cakes, meat, cheese, dressing up as Napoleon on your Birthday;  it's just not natural behaviour.

Bizarre and unnecessary power trips as usual here.

 

So I take it someone living in Pathum Thani can just drive to Rangsit or Bangkok to get their beers?

and of course since they don't answer to the people by way of election they can do what they like without fear of retribution - something that should not be happening in any country serious about democracy 

No democracy here mate Just a fancy word to most of the government ministers and army generals who run the country

The guy who made this decision is currently losing a fair bit of money with an unused football team and stadium, as well as an empty racetrack, many of his local cronies made piggy back investments into hotels and condos which will remain empty for years to come. Maybe he is "losing" it altogether.

Buriram seems to be a real destination choice for discerning masochists. 

 

Enjoy the sticks.

Just in case you haven't realised yet, Buddhism is not a dogmatic faith. An individual alone can choose to follow and how far to follow any teachings. Monks are required to abide by rules. Lay persons are not burnt at the stake for not following the monk rules. Many Buddhists may follow tighter rules on holy days. Muslims I know nothing about. I am not a Muslim so I can not comment. I am glad that you are a devout Buddhist and can therefore comment.

Sounds like a fun joint

Last fun joint I had was years ago.

"healthier"

 

Do you mean those fruit juices loaded with extra sugar? Yea, table sugar is just great for you; cancers love table sugar.

 

Beer is more nutritious than most all fruit juices, as it has Brewer's Yeast

 

Men who drink two glasses of red wine per day live longer than those who don't drink, have less incidence of cancer, lower blood pressure on average than non-drinkers, and more healthy cholesterol levels than non-drinkers.

 

Relaxation of the booze ban should give former teetotalers an opportunity to switch to healthier drinks like beer and red wine.

stuff some yeast in the fruit juice and a little water, leave for 10 days and the sugar problem is resolved.

sugar, addiction.  alcohol, addiction.  

 

i would rather think about my problems and then exercise instead of drinking and trying not to worry.

I'll drink to that

A loaf of stale white bread, and a bag of rotting prunes, with some added sugar cubes, after a few days will give you a great Jail made Pruno....courtesy of the State of California Inmates who I watched doing this.

If its a 'ban', how come it is still for sale in some places? That doesn't sound or look like a ban.

And I guess most would not give a expletive about your comment butting in on a booze subject. I for one feel sorry for the people stuck in these egomaniac controlled places, especially Buriram that is now on the bottom of the septic tank with ai Anutin.
