November 4, 200421 yr Any news/updates on this? I heard that 3am/4am was being considered for Phuket. What about Pattaya? Cheers, T.
November 4, 200421 yr The local bar scene investigated by everyones friend, Travelfrog! Heres what i've heard about Phuket, might not be correct... Everyones been allowed to stay open until 2am, with a promise of 3am starting next week. Patong are not happy with this, as they want 4am closing. So theres talk of another strike/protest on Tuesday 9th Nov.

November 4, 200421 yr chonburi officials were in pattaya last night and pattaya police shut everywhere at 1am. everybody was whinging about it but in my opinion it was good because it shows we were following the rules, It also helped the fact that chonburi were there to report back to BKK about the necessity of a minimum closing time of 2am.
November 6, 200421 yr Hi Dave you get around mate. LOL Its a bloody mess here in Pty right now. Some places still open in the afternoon and some closing or being closed at 1am. Many staying open with the lights out and not getting bothered. Beers bars still going strong in some areas at dawn and in others they are shut at 1 or 2am. No one knows what the ###### is going on but so far so good. One day they might tell us what they are up to.

The night before lights on, police outside at 120am, then the copper sat in the bar outside (which is closed for 30 days) and had a drink??? I was approached by 2 coppers asking me for cash so as we could open to 2am, we told them where to go, i'm happier following the newly introduced coppers who pop in with my lawyer, not the shifty ones.
November 6, 200421 yr Phuket was still going strong at 4 am this morning. (Im still getting over the Bush win ) sorry Dave
November 6, 200421 yr I left marine at 2 am last night and it was still going strong,JP was still open at 4.30am when I went home.No music,but also no police around.
