Thailand Targets Tougher Alcohol Laws to Align with Global Norms

Thailand is advancing the Alcoholic Beverage Control Bill to align with global norms, with parliamentary deliberation expected in January. Key changes include potential revisions to alcohol sales hours while maintaining the ban on round-the-clock sales. The bill will establish provincial committees to enforce age restrictions and address alcohol-related risks, such as drinking games and drink-driving. Anti-alcohol groups and officials stress stricter controls, particularly during New Year celebrations, citing binge drinking and drink-driving as major issues. Experts warn extended sales hours could worsen road safety, advocating for tougher penalties for DUI offenses.
