That's where their bar girls do the walkn. Reminds me of this fat <duck> I saw once. He'd shat himself everywhere poor guy. Brown rain. |

Flowery Thai rhetoric.
Will never be enforced [generally] unless there's a consistent profit to be had.

Thai laws are little more than suggestions. Why anybody would get worked up over officious pronouncements is a chuckle. You can send a six year old down the street to buy your beer and cigarettes.

englishnews.thaipbs.or.th/restriction-liquor-sale-time-takes-effect-todayAlcohol beverages can now only be sold from 11.00 am – 2.00 pm and from 5.00 pm – 12.00 am every day. An announcement was made today by the Prime Minister’s Office on the 2015 law regulating alcohol sales which takes effect today. At all other times, alcohol sales are strictly forbidden with the exception of at international airport terminals and legally registered entertainment venues which have laws that strictly govern the periods they can operate daily. Director-general of the office of the Alcohol Control Committee Mr Samarn Futrakun stated the core substance of the new regulation remains the same in that the permissible duration for daily alcohol sales to be capped at 10 hours. Airports however are given the same allowance as before while entertainment venues which in the past were allowed to sell alcohol from 9.00 pm – 2.00 am can only do so up to midnight. This means that in total, night time entertainment venues can only legally sell alcohol for 5 hours every day which in total is less than regular restaurants. As for the reason for the new regulation governing alcohol sales, he stated that the old law was problematic as it did not cover every aspect. The new law however takes into account every type restaurant and other venues selling alcohol. Also, the old law allows for wholesale purchase of alcohol in excess of 10 liters to be made at any time of the day while any purchase under 10 liters can only be made at the specified times. The new regulation does not allow for this, what matters now are the stated hours for purchase or sale of alcohol irrespective of quantity. Violation of the law is subject six months imprisonment and/or a 10,000 Baht fine.

There is a law in at least one Australian state prohibiting brothels within 300 metres of all schools and churches. Here it is nearly the same.

I rather suspect that if they had a law that schools and temples couldn't be build within 300 metres of a brothel or liquor vendor that there wouldn't be any new schools or temples. |
