webfact Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 Patong entertainment president pleas for government assistance By Tanyaluk Sakoot The formal request for assistance was present in Bangkok yesterday (July 1). Photo: Supplied PHUKET: While the pubs and bars along Bangla Road in Patong yesterday were readying to open their doors for the first time since Phuket went under lockdown in early April, key figures in Patong’s nightlife industry were presenting to the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Tourism in Bangkok an official request for assistance to help nightlife venue owners in Patong. Patong Entertainment Business Association (PEBA) President Weerawit Kreuasombat along with Preechavude “Prab” Keesin, head of the Pisona Group of companies, presented the request in person. The request asked the committee for the government to provide free water and electricity to suffering business owners to help alleviate basic operating costs, to assist with negotiations with landlords to provide rent relief and for the government to provide SME loans for stricken businesses in Patong.

Popular Post Enoon Posted July 2, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 2, 2020 (edited) Don't worry, help is on the way. Your allowance will be 200 tourists a day come August. After a week you will have acquired a floating population of about 1400 of them. Think of that! every day with 1400 tourists on your lovely island! This is based on the brilliant strategy (as outlined in "another source") of allowing 1000 tourists a day into Thailand, letting them stay for a max 7 days, and sharing them out between 5 tourist destinations. You are one of the lucky 5 destinations (but there may be another 2 destinations, so it might only be 1000 "floaters"). Good times are just around the corner!
