Popular Post brommers Posted February 3, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 3, 2022 When there's a cluster in a a couple of bars in Thonglor they close down the whole industry for a year but when it's a market there is virtually no restriction. So much for having the best interests of the population in their minds. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fish cleaning section in my local market is a real eye-opener, not for the faint hearted. Any foreign tourist needing a taste of Thailand would throw up. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much for having the best interests of the population in their minds. The bars in Thonglor are, probably, mostly frequented by a couple of middle-class people. Like middle-class people around the world, they never complain, and, due to their low number, do not pose a threat to the regime. They just move on to the next club or event. At Thai markets, on the other hand, large numbers of Thailand's poor haggle for 1 or 2 baht, to either, bring food on the table, or make a living. - The ruling class knows too well not to mess with this large part of the populace...

China are having some pretty cruel ways of preparing and serving fish. Documentary showed this one. A live carp being cut into and they dip it into frying oil, but just the lower body, so when it's served the fish is still gasping for air and gills are moving. Bon appetit....

Most bars in Thailand are just front for brothels where bride seekers and orgy seekers hang out and if they want to drink they can do so in their home. Yes it affects the local people just like sex workers through out the World. Edited February 6, 2022 by CartagenaWarlock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Triangle Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Yep, I have a mate lives in Phimai, NE of Korat, the market there has been shut from this morning until 8th Feb, lots of infections apparently, he usually goes to the bar that is directly opposite the market, not sure if that was open tonight, he likes to sit outside and people watch, which is what I do when I go up to see him for a couple of days.
