jaywalker Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Pattaya Mail says they'll ban booze near Bali Hai for New Years. "City hall is considering banning alcohol sales at its three-day Pattaya Countdown concert and fireworks festival at Bali Hai Pier" - See more at: http://www.pattayamail.com/#sthash.2erS6afX.dpuf Won't affect me, as I always avoid crowds that size, as well as any event with the word 'concert' in it in Thailand, but the powers that be really are clueless sometimes.

brewsterbudgen Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Why are they clueless? Alcohol is banned at many similar types of NY events all over the world. As long it is only at the event itself it makes nothing but sense. That said, it is still only a proposal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaywalker Posted December 26, 2015 Author Share Posted December 26, 2015 Clueless because it is within spitting distance of Walking Street. It's akin to banning sand from blowing across the road in a desert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's akin to banning sand from blowing across the road in a desert. The ban would only be at the concert/fireworks site which is well away from the main part of Walking Street and just means there won't be the usual beer stalls selling beer and other alcohol and people won't be able to carry alcohol in with them. Everywhere else will be business as usual - if the ban goes ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaaSaparot Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Always been an alcohol ban inside the concert area anyway ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
