New Years Eve Countdown Pattaya.

[banglay]

Hello .. any new  updates or info for the protocol on New Years Eve / Countdown in Pattaya ...  I am leaving until last minute to book a hotel (still undecided) I don't want to waste my time or money if the only things on Pattaya's streets  is tumble weed blowing in the wind ...

Tumble weed would be more exciting than it is now.

New years countdown????

No tourists! Ongoing pandemic! Really?

Just take a sitdown with your family or friends. Eat something and cheer the new year in when it´s due time. ????

There is no protocol as there is no countdown. 

 

Stay at home, be part of the cure not the problem!

I wish we had tumbleweeds in Hua Hin.

Countdown cancelled a week ago, and entertainment venues ordered to close at midnight, so I think Pattaya will be pretty much dead on new years eve

The Governor of Chonburi has answered the question for me..... Mods please feel free to close this post ????

Bet you a pound to a piece of doo-dah that the hoards still descend on the place for the next few days. Has inter-province travel been banned? Far as I know, it hasn't. 

 

Another thing, the house across from me which is inhabited by half of the village of the German guy who owns it, has been playing loud music and partying in the garden for the last couple of days. A case of the locals not taking this outbreak seriously. It's one of two in our community which farang built and then went away and left their wives in residence. Before you knew it, they'd sub-let it to half their home village. The majority of the community is farang owned executive houses, but we may as well be living in a kampong.

There is no lock-down since people can still freely move around.... Curfew is for shops ( 5am to 10pm ).Bars closed, restaurants open for take away and no alcohol ban, so far.

What could Pattaya do for New Years eve that wouldn't draw a crowd of not socially distanced people? Especially if they are intoxicated. Any suggestions?

With runners of very different ability so well spaced and no observers? 555

 

And observers can't drink? Yikes!
