Daily Ban on Sale of Alcohol, Elections, and Religious Holidays
The sale of alcohol in Thailand is banned between 2pm and 5pm and again between midnight and 11am seven days a week. This rule largely affects supermarkets and chain shops, such as 7-11 or Tops. It is common knowledge that the law is not always enforced at smaller, family-run shops.

The Election Commission of Thailand also bans alcohol on Election Days for the offices of Prime Minister and Senator, including advanced voting days. In addition, the Government of Thailand has also been known to ban alcohol during religious holidays.

Last time I was in Khorat on an election day, a lot of expats at the hotel were complaining that they could not buy a beer in a restaurant or bar.

Some of these guys looked and acted like they really NEEDED that beer.

I didn't care much, but said it would be nice to get a cold beer on a hot day.

Walking down the street about an hour later, the door of a small shop opened and one of the expats from earlier signaled for me to come inside.

I went in.

He lead me to the back room where he shop keeper had set up a table where a half dozen expats sat enjoying their cold beer.

My favorite Thai quote: " when you have an erection in Thailand, you can't drink beer! "

I guess it applies to some birthdays too!
