StreetCowboy Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 That's a bit of a blow. Dixie wong's was a top establishment. Maybe they're just closed for Ramadan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ezzra Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 In this rate of early closing time, soon they will turn Soi Cowboy to a monastery for young nuns... I'll still go there to join them in their prayers though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brewsterbudgen Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Suzie Wong is likely to be closed a while. Who knows how long the midnight closure will be enforced? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swoods58 Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 (edited) Susie Wongs was closed for underage girls. I guess the rest is blowback for misbehaving. Edited June 24, 2015 by swoods58 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bangkoklawyer24 Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Since CH around the corner is owned by [deleted], it remains open the whole night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dogmatix Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Soi Cowboy is slated for redevelopment as an entertainment complex with casino for Chinese tourists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogmatix Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Since CH around the corner is owned by [deleted], it remains open the whole night. It is also chokker with u/a girls, probably around 30-40%. Many will readily admit to it re themselves or colleagues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogmatix Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 The death knoll for CB was coyote dancers, as it cannot command Wanchai, HK style pricing and service. Also the people who started to strictly enforce the law on all bars except the ones they have a financial interest in. CB had a brief reign for a couple of years when it took over the no. 1 spot from Nana but now it is dying because of this issues. They will kill the golden goose completely as their own place(s) will also be cleared away when it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razer Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Never got a bar girl here. Got that out of my system when I was a kid in the military.... and got burned a few times. Soi Cowboy is a great place to take visiting friends and relatives. It makes them feel like they are in some Hollywood movie .. "Bangkok Dangerous" ... right? Quite harmless. Paris has it's cabarets. Amsterdam and Den Haag have their .... Er ... Uh ... Sex Clubs and of course Amsterdam's famous Red Light District which is a huge tourist attraction. Personally I think Soi Cowboy is a good tourist attraction ... and if one needs to .... Er ... Uh ... buy sex ... they can do that anywhere in the world.

mercman24 Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 reply to post ten, nothing to do with no customers, i drink in country road, it is the police enforcing the early closures, some say it will last for one month, but typical Thai police action, one person in Suzy Wong, breaks the law and now the whole Soi Cowboy community suffers, imagine this happening in your street, trade is bad as it is, yes and one rule for one and one rule for another it would appear.

Batboy Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 I was in Country Road last Saturday night and was told by a friend who works there that the police are targeting Soi Cowboy for 12am shutdown. They said that Nana plaza or bars around there are not being targeted yet. Guess that will come after they stop the crack down on Cowboy in the next few weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chiang mai Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 No no, it's going to be a perfumery called Suzie Pong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaidream Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 I walked through the other day- not one customer even at the places noted for specialties. I do believe it shall cease to exist in the near future. Land prices too expensive to support it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HooHaa Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 the bars may close, but i have it on good authority that legs remain open all night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alwyn Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Yes I heard the same. Closing at midnight to attract more tourists by offering less fun, like they did with the beaches in Phuket (but not Samui obviously). Obligatory readings of 'Mein Kampf' at one minute after midnight to brace the soul before going home too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lust Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 No no, it's going to be a perfumery called Suzie Pong. I overheard it will be demolished to make room for the Suzie Klong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
