Popular Post mikebell Posted November 21, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 21, 2022 What kind of insensitive Thai business man would think he can make money by opening on the spot where so many died in such horrific circumstances? How many Thai customers would frequent a place with so many ghosts? 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post bradiston Posted November 21, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 21, 2022 The previous owner, if such he is, claims to have been ruined by compensation payments to the families of the deceased. But where is his insurance company? Where the public liability insurance, the fire department checks, etc etc that should be mandatory before you can get a licence. He's begging to be allowed to reopen, but has he learnt anything? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Silencer Posted November 21, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 21, 2022 (edited) So 'Mountain B' club was ordered closed for 5 years, yet a club with a different name can open up in its place? While maybe meeting the the letter of the law certainly this seems to violate the spirit of the law.

Cake Monster Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Its an absolute condemnation of the Authorities to allow another venture of the same kind to be opened on the exact same site. And so quickly after the terrible event that claimed so many lives, and ruined so many others. Its only been 3 Months or so since the fire, and the ground has hardly cooled down yet. Some really big D###ks are involved with this money grab venture for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have the operators of this new business been shown to have done anything illegal, yet?

Do any of the clubs, restaurants, bars or even major shopping malls, or any public places have any of this ? 4 hours ago, bradiston said: He's begging to be allowed to reopen, but has he learnt anything? He, or us (foreign readers)... He (owner) seems to know everything he needs to to circumnavigate laws and get illegal business running again... Its us who haven’t learned anything if we expect anything else. This will be an exercise of wash and repeat.... Raid... pay off the BiB, re-open... stay open for a few months, raid, pay off the BiB... and so-on... If its profitable, then it works - its only about the bottom line. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
