You think the majority of Thais can afford the fine even if they had it the standard for them would be 100 baht.

Percy P Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 20 hours ago, CNXexpat said: I am curious if Thais have to pay this too. I guess not because they will say "I can´t understand the English sign". Since when has a local authority been given the power as to who goes on the beach. The beach does not belong to the local Authority and has no power over it, Its classed as no man's land internationally, and is free for people to go on it. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The topic is about a 100,000 Baht fine. At least a French man has to pay a 50,000 Baht bail. The topic is about a fine up to B100,000. You'll find that the French man didn't, ultimately.

Well I could give some helpful references to clarify but as this is strictly subjects that pertain to Pattaya and any posts, helpful or not, are removed if they reference elsewhere. The point is these abuses of power are happening almost everywhere at the moment, that's what one video which was removed was about. The other video was related to Sweden's success story, they had no lockdown, but for some reason it's not relevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranshoko Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 20 hours ago, baansgr said: Last night around 7.30pm....many couples and groups on Jomtien beach drinking....it's either close the beaches or ban the booze...take her pick Well there you go then! The minority who break the rules make the majority suffer. Boozing on the beach at this time of restrictions is pure stupidity. Pattaya areas should think themselves lucky that alcohol sales are allowed. There are three Provivinces where the alcohol ban still stands. The people there I believe are abiding by the rules and regulations. Because of the stupid and couldn't care a less attitude of some people, it would be fair justice if both beach access and alcohol were banned. Rules are rules (like them or not) break them and take the consequences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bristolgeoff Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 the police station is just across the road from the beach so easy pickings for a fine.i imagine the town is empty anyway,Is the fine for walking on the sand or sitting in the sun on the cement benches.also the beach vendors have all left until the lockdown is finished with. So who is using the beach now anyway,not the thais and the expats probadly not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainCarrot Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 OK signs are in various languages but not in woof: surely the dogs roaming the beach are a concern. [Opportunity for joke; Dog goes into a telegraph office and asks to send a message. Operator says "certainly sir, what do you wish to say?" Dog writes down the message 'woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof woof' and gives to the Operator. Operator says "Thank you sir, but that is only nine words; you can have one more woof for the standard price!'. And the dog says: "Don't be ridiculous; that would not make any sense." Oh I am bored .... so bored 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
