Pattaya – A “restaurant” near the Bali Hai Pier in Pattaya was raided for the sixth time last night (December 22nd) after breaking a temporary closure order from the Chonburi Governor after five previous raids in recent months.

 

First, as reference:

Pattaya police raid restaurant near Bali Hai for the fourth time over allegedly selling alcohol and shisha, as well as breaking Covid -19 rules

 

The Chonburi Governor Phakarathorn Teanchai last week has ordered a 30 day temporary closure of ‘The Sky Mountain’ restaurant until January 13th. The venue is located next to the Bali Hai Pier and below the famous Pattaya sign.

 

Now, for our story:

Last night a team from the Pattaya City Police inspected the “restaurant” again. The “restaurant” was found opened and allegedly selling alcohol with visible beer towers present. A representative from the Pattaya City Police stated that the venue appeared to be more of a bar than a restaurant and bars, regardless of the thirty day closure order, are still officially closed due to Covid-19 measures nationwide.

The size or lack of the envelopes(s)!

This is what happens when there are next to no consequences for those caught breaking the law.

Is this what you call Thainess?

are they having a laugh or what

[jacko45k]

Why not the chain and padlock like the GGBs used to get!

[Caldera]

Whoever runs that place clearly doesn't give a hoot, and it stands to be argued that they know that they'll get away with it.

It's like when at my bank (global private bank with often over 6 billion profits) we had a compliance issue with a "special investment vehicle" registered in the Bahamas.

Head of compliance roaring: "when will anyone here be able to tell me to who the f... this damn thing belongs ?? we need to close that ASAP"

minutes later come a list, it went like this: X Y, head of private banking, managing director, board member, X Y, head of investment banking, MD, BM, X Y, head of asset management, MD, BM.

Head of compliance (calm): "ok, let's move to the next item"

Perhaps they look at the amount of the fine compared with the takings and figure that they are still making money and able to pay their staff too.

[thailand49]

Bravo!  Some said if they are allowed to open they don't plan to close no matter what?  This owner I guess meant it!????

Simple. Friends or perhaps owners in high places. And I'm sure that you already knew that

[Stargeezr]

Being connected in Thailand sure means something, doesn't it.

Thais are slow learners; and the police are conducting a vendetta for non-payment of dues.
