luke000 Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I think they're going to request being treated equal to other citizens of the same Country. The ruleas are the same for everyone, Thai and felang owned bars . The discrepancy depends on the area , Bangkok . Phucket CM etc . As with everything in Thailand , it depends on which rules are enforced by the law enforcers. So, you will be asking the Police chief not to enforce laws because other Police chiefs do not enforce those laws ? You are asking the Police chief not to enforce laws which is a BIG ask and also illegal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave2 Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 re A lot of Thais are short at the end of the month baht wise but for these two ladies to knock off early is a first and they can see this becoming a regular practice for them. They are not making more money, just clutching at straws to keep themselves and stalls afloat in the hope of some improvement in tourist numbers good luck with that ! i booked a lion air flight to bangkok this morning and i could get a a seat on any plane at any time on thursday or friday coming back a week later was the same pick a day or time on any flight you want tourists have heard about 12 am lock down city chiang mai high season here ... yeah right dave2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kanook Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Heres a new trick I saw happening recently which was confirmed by someone I know who was tempted by it who I then met up with the next day. Just as Lucky Bar was being closed down around midnight, we were approached by a quite attractive young lady who said, come with me, I know a bar where you can drink as late as you like....Me being the suspicious type and past my bedtime anyway went home. My friend, always up for a challenge, took off in a tuktuk with the young lady. She simply took him to a Changklan karaoke with the lights off on the outside but a backroom bar open inside and charging 300 baht for a small beer! My friend made his apologies and left immediately, no harm done to him or his pocket....be warned !! Aii Karaoke on Changklan is operating late so that may be where she took him.

LivinLOS Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 I stopped a place serving 'beer jelly' the other night (I mean how could a grown manchild like myself pass such a sign ?!?!)..

He's right...most places serve beer that is sort of "luke-cool". I too prefer ice cold beer and that's difficult to find here. Coupla places I know actually chill the beer in ice chests but most have stand-up glass door coolers that aren't set to particularly cold temps. Perhaps because Thais put ice in their beer - ugh.

At first, I almost agreed with you. On second thought, i find a different argument. It's not the bar closing times that affect the likelihood of rape and accidents as much as it is the lack of police presence on the streets at those times. ... and here this poor bloke was heading off-shift to his 2nd job!

WaiLai Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 http://www.chiangmaicitylife.com/news/bar-owners-ask-authorities-to-extend-closing-hours-to-2am/ There are many subtle nuances being expressed here but beyond that there are obvious truths to the matter i.e.; 1. the number of farang bar/club owners were extremely under-represented (reasons?- hehe you know what they are!) 2. greng jai is still the modus operandi in Thailand 3. "it's our way- or the highway" - you don't like then bye bye to you Mr. "No Noisey" off Loi Kroh has many friends that you mistook for being of a different intellect and colour! ... and they have started to call the shots!

bangmai Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 (edited) Remember that campaign on Chiang Moi about not letting it become another LK? That was going on several years ago...may have coincided with Spicy's brief tenure there. People pissing everywhere is a common complaint. But back to LK...it seems like they could'nt care less about being empty from 5-8, which most of them are, more often than not. Another reason for my lack of support...no promos, no HH. Any decent bar is going to do a good business with the after-work crowd (or after naptime in CNX)...even if they have to give away some food or do big promos...some will stay until closing.

Sadly Chicog there are 2 very distinguishable bars on LK soil l - perhaps 3 if you count in Number 1 bar r u a troll or do you actually live in CM? or r u just a fly-bi-night ? a question asking for clarification followed by - "git"? come on man, you sound pretty lame!

Noise? are you joking?there are tuktuks and songtaews and "pros" who live across from Mr Noisey (6-8 to a room) in the co-financed condominium that make more noise.

Well since they closed No.1 and left the opposite side open, I haven't bothered going down there. But it was hardly what I would call noisy and I don't see anything near that banner. Which is why if I asked if it is simply a git, or to put it another way, a moralistic curtain twitcher who would press his head against a speaker before declaring it to be too loud.
