webfact Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Nightclub in Khon Kaen raided, closed down KHON KAEN, 5 September 2016 (NNT) - Officers have raided an entertainment venue in Phon district, Khon Kaen, and found that there were more than 100 underage club-goers on the premises. The place was later declared closed indefinitely. The joint forces officers, led by Col.Phithakphon Chusi, raided the nightclub on Sunday after receiving complaints that it stayed open until morning and a lot of its patrons were minors. There were more than 200 male and female clubbers in the venue when the officers arrived. Urine tests showed that nine of the clubbers had used drugs. 87 of them were younger than 20 years old and 37 others younger than 18. The youngest club-goer present was 13 years old. There were also four temporary bedroom-like rooms at the club. The officers detained its owner as well as all underage clubbers and referred them to investigators who will take legal action against them. -- nnt 2016-09-05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z42 Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Piss testing minors for drugs, and Thailand has the audacity to claim that it is planning new approaches to drug use and addiction. I'm sorry but I can't see the correlation between helping people and criminalizing people by forcing them to take urine samples. A total farce, again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A total farce, again Easy there Tonto, they are only talking about decriminalizing certain drug usage and as far as I know, the current laws and methods of enforcement still apply.

The Legal Age in Thailand is 21! Only Joking! Here is how it works to the best of my knowledge. The Legal Drinking Age in Thailand used to be 18 years old, but about 8 years ago they changed this law and increased it to 20 years old. However they never changed the Legal Age in which one can work in a Bar or Go-Go Place at that time, so it remains at 18 years old. So in theory, you could meet a Bar Girl and being 20 years old or older you could order an alcoholic drink for yourself, but not for her. So because you can work in a Bar at age 18, then I assume there is no law saying you can't go to the Bar either. You are just not allowed to drink alcohol when you do. So I gather they single out this age group of 18 to 20, because this is the group who can legally go to the Bar but not legally drink their. Under 18 shouldn't be there at all, and 20 and over they can drink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would not be released the world over until they were formally charged which the phrasing of the above infers they have not yet been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it be better if we went back to having the criminals run the country and the BIB concentrating on collecting bribes? I really can't see the problem with shutting a club operating outside legal hours and admitting under-age patrons. Even if the patrons don't like it.

Perhaps you should read the Samui forum and educate yourself about the enforcement activities around here. I can only suppose you ignore the club closures in BKK reported in general news because they don't fit your paranoia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think she would need a stiff drink after taking all those "stiff ones." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so very different to the USA, where you can be old enough to join the military and kill, but not buy a beer until you are 21. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
