JemJem Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Ralf, I am not too sure if that is a good idea. I mean, you would be taking a risk. I wouldn't be able to guess what percentage of a risk it is though 🙂 But maybe, no one will say anything and you will be able to drink the beers 🙂 Very hard to predict. Also, I am also guessing that the worst that would happen there would be their confiscating the beers. Tell us afterwards what happened 🙂 If you go through with it.

It's not about alcohol consumption per se but it is about the authorities paying lip service to the national religion. They used to do the same thing in the UK in the last century and still do to a much lesser degree in this century. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People still drink, at home or otherwise. It doesn’t do the tourism sector any favours. Never mind; their country, their rules. stop drinking alcohol for a day and brew some green tea and get off your barstool and get some exercise and do something other then getting plastered. wear some deodorant and real shoes that day to show respect and take off the chang tank top. can't you do anything without being inebriated?

HaoleBoy Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 If Thailand is such a Buddhist country then the people will abstain themselves, but then the Gov couldn't make a show of exerting control over its people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sametboy2019 Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 It's kinda annoying for me today as I'm only in Bangkok today. Just got to the Londoner and no booze being sold. Obviously I can go to the mom and pops buy would be nice to sit in a establishment and have a drink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And a quaint relic of colonial empire days, New Zealand (37.3% Christian) still has alcohol ban days Good Friday, Easter Sunday, Christmas Day, plus a more local one, until after 1pm on Anzac Day 25 April. Though I don't ever recall hearing of hordes of whinging foreigners missing out on their daily barstool ales.

However it would be better to have a no-scams day instead, I think this would be more in-keeping with religion, although I'm not to sure why? Not a scam, but it is a bit odd. I am surrounded by places today selling Marijuana which used to open you up for big trouble. And also surrounded by closed bars unable to sell a legal product.
