CrisRMenumate Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Oh, I am so shocked and appalled, how could this be happening in Pattaya? it is such a clean, wholesome place where there is nothing untoward going on at all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did and so did most of us. speak for yourself. you don't know me. no i don't know you but what do you mean? you care about "the crime" of underage drinking or you didn't drink until you were of legal age.

petercool Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 It is less an issue for underage drinkers alone but more a licencing issue. Premise owners should know what their operating licence covers assuming they even had one. They are supposed to have age limits on their customers and asked by law to control that.

happysanook Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Like all these cops weren't slugging whiskey by the time they were 12. Man,these guys have too much time on their hands.

tonneke breda Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 They must present paperwork to the UN soon about underaged sexworkers!! But probably the report will state that it's the fault of the farangs, they come to Pattaya to find underaged boy's and girls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KittenKong Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 who cares if people are only drinking underage? The law is the law. If it's illegal then it should be penalised, just like not wearing a helmet on a motorbike, taking cocaine, gambling, calling a spade a spade in print or sleeping with people under 15/16/18/21/whatever daft interpretation currently applies. If a law is wrong (and God knows there are thousands of them that are) then it should be changed, but that's another matter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suradit69 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 ..........just for 'show'.....of course business will go on.... Gee our usual Pattaya undercover agent must be napping. Shouldn't there be an obligatory comment about tea money? At least we all know that the superior policing in western countries has totally eradicated drug use and alcohol abuse. If only Pattaya could operate at those lofty levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

somtampet Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 who cares if people are only drinking underage? I did and so did most of us. U dont think its important to try and stop underage drinking,take the offenders to family and get them to try and stop them too.Howold is drinking underage 12, 13, 14 15. I was lucky i got stopped before it turned into a heavy daily drinker,skipping school,stealing money,and being a horrible football hooligan with no scruples whatsever,mostly because i was drunk.Carrying knives and using them,because most did it too,u are wrong.

bartender100 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 First time in a long time I drove along 3rd road at night, I was suprised how many Thai orientated bars and clubs have opened up, some of them really nice looking places Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halion Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 It is less an issue for underage drinkers alone but more a licencing issue. Premise owners should know what their operating licence covers assuming they even had one. They are supposed to have age limits on their customers and asked by law to control that. Totaly agree, The person holding the operating licence has to bear the full responsibility of whom he allows in his premises and that is a stipulation by law.. The fact that officialdom is doing random checks merely indicates that noboby gives a dam. Revoke these defaulters licence for a five year period and perhaps you may get a better result.

AnotherOneAmerican Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 who cares if people are only drinking underage? I did and so did most of us. I'm thinking you weren't drinking with the intention of finding a customer as a freelance prostitute. I may be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winstonc Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 is it illegal to be just in there with just an orange juice,but under 20,.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petercool Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 (edited) is it illegal to be just in there with just an orange juice,but under 20,.... Yes. If the pub premises are licenced for alcohol then the owner should keep you out. Whether you would be fined is unlikely but the owner could be. if it is restaurant that's different.
