  • This is just a childish comment. Maybe you've been damaged somehow by alcohol but please not everyone that drinks alcohol is an alcoholic.

    That seems to be part of this government's plan.

  • I feel for the bars and the workers!  But I don't feel for the big alcohol companies - Chang, Leo, Singha.  These companies have such a monopoly that they won't let small businesses make craft be

I love, how your heart goes out to all the thousands of employees in the se bars!

The girls, the cleaning- personal, the barkeepers, the DJ's, the security and all the ones, selling food to all these employees!

Great humanitarian, you are!

But good on you: you are enjoying your life!

Does anything else really matter?

Good luck with that

for most of the tourists the Thailand's image was

a country where you could have fun and it was cheap.

It's not cheap anymore since years, and now the fun is also gone

So with what country's image do you plan to attract tourists

from abroad on a very competitive international post covid market?

Elephants?

"Don't cry for me Thailand!" When the world normalizes I will be seeking a more rational place to live and abandoning my home of the last 15 years. There is just too much incompetence and anti-farang attitudes in the government. 

Try giving up reading falang web sites like this first. Absence of group moaning sessions might change your mood. ????

It may surprise you to learn that there are other people that live in Thailand, in fact around 70,000,000 at last count. I am willing to bet that several million of them also enjoy socialising, you know, going out and having a drink, dancing, singing, maybe getting a massage, mixing it up in the entertainment scene so, "non existent" (note the spelling) customers is an entirely inaccurate statement. Brilliant!!

So you choose to live in a tourist area but don't want tourists. Good idea.

Actually I live on the darkside away from the touristy places but less tourists equals less tourist coaches choking the roads.

Never mind, Arsenal might start winning now and you can go back to the football forum. ????

Sure must be hard hitters if you mention their names on a forum! Enjoy your ramblings....

Childish retort.

 

Their antics are common knowledge in Thailand. They are hardly going to send out a hitman because I posted on here. :crazy:

 

Kamnan Poh dodged a sentence following a murder conviction for years while on the run and his sons are now in top tier government positions and control Pattaya and Chonburi including one being the Mayor of Pattaya.

 

One of the Yubamrung sons shot an off-duty Policeman in RCA in Bangkok about 20 years ago and got off, despite dozens of witnesses and CCTV footage. All the family again, heavily involved in politics under Thaksin and siblings.

It will be a hard pill to swallow for many but...

 

Hopefully this is the beginning of the end of the sex-tourism industry in Thailand and the low-class foreign trash that come here for it.

given that customers who drink alcohol are likely to be lax in observing disease control measures such as social distancing.

Where is the study the study that shows this?  We all hear about social distancing but there is not a shred of evidence that staying 2 meters away does anything to control the spread of the virus.  A sneeze can travel 6 meters easy and stay in the air for 10+ minutes.  

 

the more people are tested the more we find out that many more people than realized already have had this flu and have since recovered from any effects.  all the extra BS people have been through and all the coming BS that the overlords will put us through will do nothing to prevent a microscopic organism from running its natural course.

well said I like to have a drink (leo) on a night time....I do NOT drink that much.....so am I AN ALCOHOLIC ???

Partiers be partiers. Posting pictures of clubs and partying is not helping. Meeting people online is just not the same. We need to go out. Its what we do. Just like some people here need to garden.

Dick Tracey is still trying to get Mr. Chalerm Yoovidhya condemned. 

 

He is not aware of the immense power of the Yoovidhia, and other families in Thailand.
