Sadly, Thai's, especially those in positions of power, aren't particularly clever.

 

The ones in power are deemed to be the brightest!!

Sure. Easily done. If you have ever been in a bar, sober, you will see that drunks are loud, obnoxious and full of spittle that sprays... they are not the most rational people either - [not everyone but many] give many of them one beer and they can get pretty forceful in wanting another beer, then another... then comes the spray of spittle and stupid opinions... 

 

Thanks for asking. 

The OP was in a restaurant with his daughter. 

 

Not a drunk or some pisshead out on the lash. I agree with him. A casual beer with lunch can do no harm.

 

The drunks are more likely to be sat behind a mom and pop shop getting lashed on cheaper beer.

yes. I am sure you are correct - and I am sure he would have been fine - but my first post was that you cannot write laws specific to the  well mannered OP - - the reason for having the laws is that it permits not only the OP but the spittle spraying deplorables.

You must frequent some quite deplorable places if that is what you experience.

 

I have to say, I can't remember the last time I experienced such a scene. If I had, I would have turned around and left. I don’t need the risk of getting a virus to tell me those are not the sort of places to go to.

 

It would be easy to create different rules for different establishments. That said, from a few posts on here, many places are not adhering anyway.

Between 2pm-5pm no alcohol is served - Thai law or something like that

Between 11am - 2pm it is allowed.

Thanks. Now we know you are making assumptions. Not even worth talking about.

None so blind as those that can not see. I will reiterate again. In the province i live in. Unlike Phuket, or Pattaya or Bangko or Koh Chang or a few other places where you can get on the <deleted> all day every day. The goverment has decided you can not have an alcholic beverage in a proper restaurant with a meal. Not a bar, not a gogo, not an irish pub a restaurant. I agree with you sitting shoulder to shoulder in such an establishment with someone that has been on the <deleted> all day may be far more conducive to the spread of covid (though not sure that is proven) but back to the question i originally asked, from which you have moved so far off topic from in your anti bar rant. And ignoring the fact that your presumption is most people are roaring drunks that cant stop at one drink and spray spittle everywhere. Which also i refute.

  How does anyone having 1 or 2 or even 3 alcholic drinks for that matter. Not that I imagine many would certainly not the people i associate with. Obviously your experience is different. Who goes to sit in a restaurant at lunchtime to get smashed? (remebering alcohol sales are 1100 to 1400) cause more chance of spreading covid than a person having 3 soft drinks?

geez, how I love a cliche... I am not saying what you do over your lunch matters - it just gets caught up in a web of the others who get sloppy drunk and you know what I am talking about... and you know what I am talking about...

Indeed I do . I also agree in essence. But what your talking about has zero to do with this thread. All the best. ????

I just had 2 weeks in Udon. UD Town night market/food court was serving beer openly which they were not over New Year when it had to be concealed. But in Centre Point night market food court the vendors were still having to hide it and serve it in 'alternative' vessels. Also at 2 favoured Chinese Thai  restaurants, one was serving beer openly while it's neighbour was not.

 

Methinks brown envelopes to police could be involved here.

If you don't get what you want from a service, country, company, etc then simply don't use it - ever again.

It must be part of the Asian leg of their tour. ????
