For sure there will always be those who drink too much or cannot handle their drink but in general having a social drink never did anyone any harm . If you choose to abstain from booze , that is your choice but please do not preach or criticise other peoples prerogatives . I agree, nothing wrong with anyone having a social drink, as a lifelong non drinker. I have sat with many farangs over the years, and out of these many I can only think of two who have given people problems through drink. But in saying that, I know a good few who have died from it, though did not cause problems. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was mixing with real politicians in Glasgow last week, I don't know what his English is like, but I would bet that if he even opened his mouth, he would be getting laughed at behind his back. Some might say that the above in bold type is an insult to Thai people . In a recent survey Thailand came 64th out of 200 countries in an IQ study . Let us not confuse a country with a suppressed education system with its intelligence quotient . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK I get your point, although I love the Thai people, and accept that the vast majority of them are decent, trustworthy and honest. Though unfortunately, these are the same people responsible for Thailands dreadful road statistics their lack of intelligence affects us all and not just on the roads. Sorry about that, but I just want you to see where I am coming from. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry about that, but I just want you to see where I am coming from. Most of their problems stem from lack of education , not only in schooling but in areas such as road traffic training , a highway code , no proper driver training , plus of course the government do little to patrol the highways nor do they televise road safety tutorials . On average 5 children drown a day in Thailand . That is avoidable by teaching kids to swim , however where I stay there is not 1 school with swimming facilities . So I repeat , I Q should not be confused with a lack of education which seems to be the case in Thailand . 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall a Thai survey in the early 00's that had the average IQ at around 85 and on average 10% of the population was considered 'medically retarded'. This rose to about 16% in the poorest provinces in Isarn. The education system is the biggest hindrance to Thailand above and beyond any other factors. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been in the news that keeping bars closed until New Year will be discussed by the CCSA this week. Not quite no sales, and Pattaya could well be a blue zone by then anyway, but might be at the root of these rumours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden Triangle Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 (edited) With these clowns in charge anything can happen, I wouldn't hold your breath on Dec 1st, I like everyone else want to get back to a normal world here but it wouldn't surprise me if they pull a stupid stunt and keep us, Pattaya, closed.

The post was deleted because your headline said "no drinking until January" but the content of the article said nothing of the sort. It said that the CCSA will discuss the possibility of opening bars when they meet again on Friday. It also said, totally unrelatedly that they were concerned about gatherings and new-year countdowns.
