I don't know which posts you mean. I think a post about Australian alcohol retailers with no comparison to anything is pointless and irrelevant.

Stargeezr Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 I agree that Phuket is talking about wanting to open the Island to foreign tourists in a month or so, but today, the rule is , No Alcohol is allowed for sale. What will the rule be after a month or two goes by? Welcome to all non drinkers. Welcome to Phuket and let us show you your quarantine hotel room. Sorry no alcohol for your quarantine period, and we will let you know later if you can enjoy any alcohol, further into your most important visit to Thailand. I keep reading about TAT and the government wanting to attract international tourists, but this hard, no alcohol rules will not fly when most international tourists indeed arrive. So Pattaya Spotter that is what Pottinger is talking about. Is the COVID pandemic making people to have brain fog? I know that I will not be going back to Thailand until they get rid of some rules that are currently being enforced right now. Thankfully by November and some brave souls do go to Thailand for a vacation, the rules will have changed somewhat by then. Also by then, when there is far less tourists than what TAT is estimating, the government will get a few more visa changes made.

I don't disagree about your point of relevance to the subject matter, just wondering why you only question the Australian poster making pointless comparisons.

I have since seen one of those posts but it did make some sort of comparison. Your only problem seems to be that an Australian was criticised. I have seen many of your posts over the years Croco and from memory they were generally balanced and rational, but I have to say this seems a bit thin-skinned and nationalistic. I also note that there were a number of posts similar in tone to mine, so I do not seem to be taking a lone swipe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
