Popular Post impulse Posted October 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 14, 2021 (edited) Yup. Stories like this will have the tourists fighting for a seat to Thailand, where they can be arrested for being in an open restaurant. As more police arrived many customers fled, according to reports from police. Some customers dashed into the woods below the Pattaya Viewpoint and others reportedly ran into the sea across the street to escape being arrested. Sounds like a perfect evening in paradise, doesn't it? Edited October 14, 2021 by impulse 8 1 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Gsxrnz Posted October 15, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 15, 2021 Some people evading capture ran into the sea. Imagine if some poor sod drowned for committing the heinous and heretical crime of consuming a hamburger and a beer in violation of authoritarian dogma. This would never have happened in the time of the Spanish Inquisition. I suspect even at the height of Stalin's purges that eating borscht and washing it down with a vodka amongst your comrades did not necessarily end up with a stint in a gulag. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tourists sitting in their homelands must be wondering what the November 1st opening must actually mean. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe I saw in the CCSA notes that as of 1 November, police will give punters a 30 second running start before arresting them. Flight tickets must be flying off the shelf. 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stargeezr Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 Well it is still only Oct 15th, and most of the crowd were likely Thai people. If this happens with a restaurant full of tourists, the high season will be very short this year and for the first half of 2022. I hope this story makes some international news papers etc. Just what Thailand needs just before they plan their big November 1st opening announcement.

Danderman123 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 For the record, this is the second raid on Sky Mountain, the first happening at the end of May. A friend of mine posted photos on Facebook of her drinking at Sky Mountain last week, and invited me to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they called the RTP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
