webfact Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 Picture: Daily News A 30 strong contingent of Pathumwan police headed by station chief Pol Col Phansa Amaraphitak went to the Groove area of Central World where they found two shops allowing after hours drinking. Phansa said that his men found beer still on the table after 9 pm and the managers of the shops were being prosecuted for falling foul of the emergency decree and governor's rules. Picture: Daily News Both shops were on the first floor of the restaurant/bar area that has 12 establishments. The others had shut for the night, reported Daily News. The owners of the restaurants breaking the rules would also be investigated for perhaps letting this happen. Phansa said that it would take three days to investigate after a clip emerged earlier in the same area. Daily News referred to this as the "Siri" clip without further explanation. Picture: Daily News Elsewhere Thai media reported that there were rumors earlier that people had tested positive for Covid in the Groove area, and that Central World were quick to check out and then report that it was not true. Testing with ATK kits had confirmed this.

Popular Post KhunBENQ Posted November 25, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 25, 2021 (edited) Now citizens can sleep well assured that RTP does their job meticulously. Similar happend yesterday evening in Udon Thani as a mate reported. Huge fleet of RTP and other uniformed cloth racks paraded the "entertainment zone". As their arrival was slow and going up main road before turning in, most roller blinds went down like a lighting strike.

Popular Post richard_smith237 Posted November 25, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 25, 2021 This needed to happen.... After playing football last week in a busy tournament, we went to very busy central world, into the Apple Shop which was crowded... then we went to Groove for something to eat... I was disgusted that some people had the audacity to have a beer with their food and even hung around after to carry on sitting at the same table, not with water, but with beer.... .... I mean, don’t they know the danger they were putting themselves in by drinking beer in the same place as those who’d been engaging in physical activity in groups and hanging out in busy shopping malls ? Well done the Police on protecting those who are having a beer from those of us less careful.... 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbko Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 But but but there's no mention or photos of the police arresting foreigners, is it possible the "they only go after farangs" paranoia is wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My friends in the UK say there is no mention of such measures and police raids in the TAT ads now being published and broadcast. I think we should all do the same, don't you.

It would be something to see if every single establishment - restaurant, bar, etc. - just shut the doors, stopped paying rent, and went home. Let's see how much the landlords like the absurd policies being enforced. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caldera Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 Groove, again? Police in other areas seem a bit more reasonable. Last orders 9pm, but people can continue to sit and drink until 10pm or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
