Popular Post Walker88 Posted July 20, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 20, 2023 Clearly there has been an insufficient number of drunk expats throwing TVs from their apartment or hotel room balconies. Got to juice the GDP. Crony-nomics is based squarely on the Broken Window Fallacy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redwood1 Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 I think this 24 hour thing is just greasing the wheels for future casinos.... Casinos all stay open 24/7/365 the world over....... So 24 hour bars will help people get used to the 24 hour thing.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they don't also alter the alcohol selling hours, this would mean a lot of bars staying open all night serving cola and soda water! Along with ganga, I think they have recriminalizing prostitution on the agenda. Actually a good thing, for the workers and income tax collection, as surely they'll be reporting at tax time. Maybe get some health bennies and on the SS system, for that 500 baht a month after retirement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trippy Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 If they're going to make drinking allowed 24/7, then they should raise the penalty for drunk driving to include significant jail time, to hopefully encourage people to drink responsibly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not about encouraging people to drink more or longer, it is about having the choice when to. Back in the early 90's when i first came here all of Pattaya was open 24/7, and it was great, no binge drinking in short hours, much less aggression and violence, it worked perfectly, business's were busy all day, oh i wish it would go back to that! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recall that the EEC was created by the junta government using its absolute power to override any local protest and environmental laws (ie., available water for new and expanded commercial and industry vs legacy agriculture being bring a major issue). The oversight body is the 22-member (13 cabinet ministers, 2 honoray directors, a Budget Bureau Director, 3 secretary generals and 3 industry chairmen) EEC Policy Committee headed by Chairman Prayut. As such one might imagine that such persons will have a continuing economic interest beyond the end of the Prayut regime. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a pretty good summary of the shady EEC.....I would love to see a paper trail on their MASSIVE funding sometime....Their web site does its best to not give out any funding info at all.... All this Smart City bla bla bla did not originate in Thailand....So I think many EEC directives come from some where else...

They will lose a lot of income when the venues will be able to legally stay open. Somehow I wouldn't be surprised that in the future legally the places have to be shut but somehow the police don't see when they are open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natway09 Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 The only model in controlled areas that I see is operate 20 hours a day. Times are at the owners discretion but nominated & advised to authorities. This gives time for a good clean & "empties the bar" I managed 3 casino bars in the same property & the above did work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
