Traditional sport here been there to see what it's all about once. Also to see Karabo and his group who turned up on their Harley's. Don't see what illegal migrates have got to do with it, someone just looking for a pay day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like roosters and I too don't like cock fighting. Allowed or not, it's crazy. But to your post: C.F. arenas and especially their 'excited' people are beautiful virus spreader. Well known, by the way... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natai Beach Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Prayut promised a crackdown on people gathering to gamble after the Rayong covid outbreak. The police are producing a lot of results all over the country. The big cockfighting that usually attracts 200+ plus carloads in Khok Kloy town every Saturday has not been held the last two Saturdays. Looks like Prayut is serious on this one.
