Hooliganzone Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Police turned up at one bar demanding to see their “dartboard license”. When asked how to apply for such license, bar staff were told that the license doesn’t actually exist but will be a requirement imminently. Smoking on the beach and playing darts could could get you life imprisonment What a load of Bullocks, this place is turning into a bigger dirt hole than it already is. I don't play darts or smoke by the way but that doesn't my feelings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddie61 Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 The stupidity and venality of the RTP is monumental. I don't think any police force in the world can compare. Another number 1 for Thailand! So now Thailand is a world leader in Thai Food, Thai language, road accidents, commercial sex, and police ineptitude and corruption.. That takes some doing..

mikosan Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 You just have to laugh at the stupidity of it. For a moment I thought it was 1st April, then I remembered that in Thailand most days are April fools day. This is surely a wind-up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo in Thailand Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 18 hours ago, Samui Bodoh said: C'mon, be reasonable! Darts are clearly weapons of war that could be used to overthrow the government. Of course they are banned... Exactly! The same "weapons of war" as my imported toy drone and my imported hobby/consumer grade 3D printer, according to the respective Thai government agencies I've had to deal with last year to get my "weapons" released from Suvarnabhumi Customs jail. If you've had to deal with the Thai government, like I have, you also painfully know that rampant paranoia has swept throughout the kingdom's government agencies post-2014. The government employees are still very nice, but they're terrified of making a mistake and having to face the consequences. In fact, one of them actually told me to my face that's the reason for inaction and delaying tactics within the agencies. It's obvious this paranoia is extending to include a ban on the game of darts. F. F. S. what's next?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rally123 Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 It's plainly obvious Thais do not like foreigners. It's in their National Anthem 'Thailand is for Thais'. They really couldn't give 2 ****s about us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any of you guys playing darts, please check your local pub to see what they have heard. Maybe the Soi 6 brigade can poll their hangouts, so to speak.

spidermike007 Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 The numskulls who dreamed up this newest crackdown, should be exiled, their passports confiscated, and they should never be allowed to return to Thailand. They are not deserving of the oxygen they consume. Just more nonsense, from one of the most comical, incompetent and do nothing administrations in the countries history. Darts. A game so dangerous, so threatening, so devoid of social meaning, and purpose, that the benevolent leaders must deny us the ability to play. Nice work guys. Little P. - Moving Thailand backwards at a breath taking, alarming, and astonishing pace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sadinc Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Thailand laws on Licenses: Unfortunately a black hole exists between the enforcement agencies and the policy makers. To check the licenses and renewals is NOT a prerogative of the cops. it is for that depatment that issues these licenses. Entertainment licenses are needed for food sale, alcohol and cigarette sale, massage, dance and go go bars or bands. Unfortunately unlike most other countries shop keepers and Business owners do not work through their association and make representations so its to each his own.. cant really blame the authorities if the law doesn't specify for a particular activity.. eg if in future they start a bridge club or drone racing they will confiscate as per the local operating laws. Suggestion: Make a representation direct to local authority and release a press note for clarification and its affect on tourists. .. someone from the relevant Ministry will take note and issue a directive or a clarification..
