Popular Post fxe1200 Posted June 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 6, 2020 When those beer bar opens, I wonder what they are going to sell? Bottled beer, which has been sitting at roughly 30 degrees centigrade for months, beer which is totally bitter and stale? Beer is not properly stored, and that is a rule in Thailand. Therefore I will wait some time until the old p*ss has been sold. Besides I will keep on checking the filling dates, before I order a beer, or buy at the 7/11 or a supermarket. Lately I saw some boxes of Singha at Big-C with a filling date 19.09.2019! Cheers! 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Temperature is checked before you can get in. This is still the sensible route. Give these Bars with Bar Girls an inch and they'll take a mile. Of course it needs an infected person to pass it on. If anyone thinks that Thailand is Covid free apart from the Thai coming back from overseas they are delusional. Do you really think the virus can pass only by a bar girl? If it's a girl working in a massage shop, a freelancer on Thailfriendly or even a cashier in Big C, they are safe? (And you are safe also) seriously...

Popular Post Cake Monster Posted June 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 6, 2020 4 hours ago, darksidedog said: Many of their customers are close to begging the government to let them reopen too. With no local transmissions in a couple of weeks now, there is essentially no one out there right now for people to catch covid from, so further continued closure makes very little sense. They have zero chance of getting tourists in all the time this continues and now would seem the perfect time to allow them to open so the situation can be assessed and protocol addressed before people come back in numbers. There are a lot of people employed by these places who need to get back to earning a living. Even if these Beer Bars open today, they will not make any money. With few potential customers, it will cost them money to keep the lights on all day and night. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the main question will be what will happen if Thailand can't get rid of Corona and might even be left with many cases. Will the tourists and other countries care? They could avoid or block Thailand. It is not an easy situation for a country that depends so much on tourism. There might be safer travel destinations then. And what should be done with tourists that get Corona while being here? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the business which is for sale or rent, not the land or the building the sign ''sale'' or ''rent'' can stay in place during years, i have seen some of them year after year, the owners of the land and building don't care at all they are already wealthy enough to wait decades until a real estate developper offer them an incredible amount of money for their <deleted>ty place. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Greg O Posted June 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 6, 2020 Let the games begin...Should have seen the look on my landlords face. Politely asked for discounts on rent for the last couple of months as have all the bar owners here (in Hua Hin) till we get up and running and she wouldn't budge. Alot of the landlords are Thai Chinese and they're ruthless. They don't care to help knowing that the next tenant will have to pay an upfront deposit usually equal to 6 months rent. So it's win win for them, they couldn't give a rats behind about the tenants. So cleaned the place out and handed her the key with a smile...Priceless ! 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post FunkyDunky58 Posted June 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 6, 2020 The local markets are open. Thais flock to them and rub shoulders in the throng of people with plenty not wearing masks, including food vendors. Can someone explain to me how that is safer than a bar with a couple of expats sitting having a quiet beer? The borders are not open, so the customer base is going to be from the people that live here and have endured this prolonged period of closure. By the way, I went for a bicycle ride on the weekend and counted over 500 Thais not wearing masks at all of wearing them under their chin. Everybody is over it and while the big dicks in local government can report up the line how good they are (saving face) by imposing all their strict measures, the BIB are as usual nowhere to be seen, so once again no enforcement. 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
