    They need to close at 4 AM because it stops kids buying alcohol on the way to School 

  • Personally see no reason to extend alcohol sales to 4AM but the reason given is nonsense most alcohol accidents happen well before the present 2AM alcohol sales.

Right now, for example Seven Elevens can sell alcoholic drinks from 11 am to 2 pm and then from 5 pm to midnight. I think the start and end times are reasonable. But, them not being able to sell between 2 and 5 can be annoying.

 

This 'No alcohol from 2 to 5' is also valid for some bars and pubs. For bars in the Nana and Asoke area, I think that is not a problem. They can sell alcoholic drinks. But elsewhere, you can come acoss some places that don't sell drinks in those hours. It has happened to me recently. The place is actually part of a hotel, so I was really surprised. And, they used to be able to sell in those hours before. But now, there is that restriction for them. 

 

I have no idea what the criteria are for being able to sell alcoholic drinks in that interval.

I was responding to a suggestion about non alcoholic drinks after 2 before closing at 4. Might as well close at 2 if they can't drink liquor because no one will stay.
