When it was just those with restaurant licenses that could serve alcohol there was no chaos. This would be the best time to do it, when there's not many people here. There will be mongers and drinkers returning when the immigration requirements actually ease off. Makes no difference to me, but I am concerned for other people. ????

After a hectic night swatting mossies and playing 'The Simsons Tapped out' on his iPhone he will lock up again at 6 AM. Or maybe someone has bought him an Oxford concise (OED), in which case that leaves these options. Obviously from the US Version of the OED as they spell SNOWPLOW as they do, and we don't! I could think of a much better example for Verb No. 2 than a bleedin' Eagle. Sorry, now back to these bars opening again.....................

Let alone any potential tourists who are supposed to be coming from 1st Nov. Nothing happens until it's officially announced in the Royal Gazette, and that is someway off. Why didn’t he take the easy route “ we will have to wait until the committee makes a statement at the end of this week” but no he has to waste time talking about, maybe or possible etc however he is no I different than any other wannabe leader. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maddermax Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 They should allow the restaurants to fully open with booze as the numbers and seating arrangements can be controlled. If that works, then progress to the bars. This will be a form of gradual opening taking it a little at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will they open bars and nightclubs before allowing restaurants to serve alcohol? November 1st was the date for restaurants being allowed to sell alcohol - December 1st was the date that "entertainment venues" are allowed to open - but no mention of alcohol!

aussienam Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 When the place opens the virus will spread. More humans congregating in close proximity means it's guaranteed. Vaccination rates have hit/will hit the acceptable limit by opening. Those who didn't want the vaccine then up to them. It is inevitable that everyone will get COVID. I got infected with it (vaccinated as well) and it hit me hard in the lungs. Glad I had the vaccines to mitigate the symptoms and possibly save my life. It's not like a regular flu. But, we need to accept to live with the gift from Wuhan virus. If the government keep closing things back down because of outbreaks, they are just delaying the inevitable. And with most people vaccinated it means those vaccinated are much less likely to need hospitalisation and overwhelming hospital capacities. Keeping the bars perpetually closed is also blatantly unfair, when there are certain premises being allowed to run, that lots of people know about, where those owners are making many thousands of Baht profits a day and everyone else getting nothing, going broke and suicidal from financial stress, or being fined and jailed if they try to do the same. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunMorris Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 More questions than answers at this stage: What documents are going to be required? COE, Insurance? Who pays for the test on arrival? Are transit flights allowed? What about babies and children who cannot get vaccinated? Do they need to quarantine? - This is a big one What happens if someone tests positive? If they want families and traditional travel agent type tourists back then they'll need to remove all the impediments that currently exist, not just quarantine. Sincerely MORRIS.

Then closed for a few days while cleansing took place and quickly re-opened. They could do the same for bars. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a brain cell yet i do not agree with your comment . Keep the bars closed until they have 80 percent of the population vaccinated .

Exactly, what I expected… Now every looser feels obliged to add his 2 cents of worthless babble, just to get his 30 seconds of attention by TV and press. Phiphat, Anutin, NGOs like Rural Doctors, self proclaimed experts from Chulalongkorn, … and the list goes on. Especially those „experts“, proclaiming to know, what NOT to do, instead of describing workable ways, how to move FORWARD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
