Re-positioned.. has a nice ring to it.

Chairs moved - maybe they will have to forgo their shares of the "prize money" for the next couple of monthly share-outs, but don't worry, they will be back!

 

It will give them time in a nice quiet office to work out just how they can make more money from the great re-opening. If they pitch it to their superiors right, they will be back in business by the new year!

Sent to a new franchise location. And still fully protected by tiny Prayuth, with every molecule of his being and all the power of his office. 

Took the CCSA 8 months to catch up.

The Police who accepted the brown envelope gets instructed to raid the benefactor........

But there are another 60 bars in the Lumpini area still providing .......

OK, got it !!

You have to feel for the police....on one hand they are trying screw as much money as possible out of the bar owners and on the other you have officialdom telling them to do their job properly.

 

That is a recipe for stress.

I do not think the creepy leaders comprehend social media, how powerful it is these days, and the power of bad reviews, negative comments, and warnings to stay away. Their level of arrogance knows no bounds. They think they will simply open up, and millions will come flooding in. What they do not get, is the fact that Thailand needs tourism 100X more, than the world needs Thailand. It is not the magical place it was 10, 20, or 30 years ago. Alot has changed here.

 

It is still a nice place, with alot of good, pleasant people, but it has been degraded significantly, it is more expensive than before, and it is establishing a reputation of being polluted, lacking any real law enforcement, traffic or public safety, having very toxic and racist leadership, who are indifferent at best, and being a diminished version of it's old self.

She who must be obeyed says this is a regular event.

 

The upper echelons see big money being made, but their share isn't reaching them.

 

There is a big purge (good optics), cops are moved out and more subservient ones installed who make sure the funds go to the 'right' people.
