Thai Lower House Approves Bill to Ease Alcohol Advertising Restrictions

Thailand’s House of Representatives passed a new Alcohol Control Bill, easing advertising restrictions with a 365-0 vote. The key amendment removes a previous ban on alcohol promotion, allowing small producers to advertise within guidelines. The bill, now heading to the Senate, addresses past enforcement issues, where ordinary citizens faced penalties for posting alcohol-related content. Supporters argue the change will help small businesses and enhance Thailand’s soft power by promoting local alcoholic beverages internationally. Critics note past laws favored big corporations while limiting small producers, and this amendment aims to level the playing field.
