The thai story just say a bar was open for foreign tourist in Pattaya the tourist drink beer, and the “attack” in the story is about the two woman break the law AND police take them. Talk about why necessary for follow the law to help with virus. NO foreigner arrest, no problem. Only the TVF “translation” headline/story make the “attack” about drunk foreigner. False narrative. Again. Make some people, (who not read link) think xenophobia. Just imagine. is not real news. Just the Facebook news. Calm down. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are two separate logical arguments/issues. I agree that there appears to be no one 'getting drunk' and even a guy using the his laptop. The guy in the foreground seems to sitting quietly and none of the tables are full and how many bottles of booze can you see? No, the headline 'getting drunk' is simply another 'dig' at foreigners. The issue of breaking the law is that of the owner who it seems has been charged. Foreigners entering that establishment knowing it to be wrong does show disregard and I hope that all were cautioned. You hope that they were all cautioned?! Oooh, that´s great! If one of the foreigners that sat there was infected, and transmitted that to others. Then you happened to meet that person and got infected. Yeah, I am sure you would be happy that they were cautioned. You know, I actually like your expression and your way of thinking, if this was normal circumstances in ordinary life and no risk of a dangerous virus infection was included. I times like this, people don´t care at all about being cautioned. Too many are stupid enough, so the only thing is to scream to reality in their face or giveém a good beating to understand. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the foreground, the couple do not appear to be drinking. They have distanced themselves by two metres. The guy at the computer notebook also doesn't appear to be drinking - just using his notebook. He too is distanced about two metres from the couple and the guy on the right who is enjoying one bottle of beer. It is the grey/fair haired foreigner who is not distanced from the others. He might be drinking - but the picture is not that clear. Five others have their backs to the camera and they appear to be Thai. It doesn't say who took the picture. The headline is totally misleading and inflammatory. There are not 'dozens' of foreigners and they do not appear to be drunk or getting drunk. If that was just a restaurant - nobody would be commenting on this picture, apart from the fact that the four foreigners aren't wearing masks! personally, I wouldn't even want to do that. Yes, they are irresponsible and should know better in view of the current crisis. But thousands of Thai are doing much worse than this. The article doesn't warrant the moralistic high-ground, holier than thou attitude of one or two posters! If you read the thai link you not be upset. You upset the TVF special translation. The thai link story about 2 thai women broken the law, police take them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howiehotspur Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Mmmm firstly the reason for this is large grouping of people , so the bar owners are solely to blame for this , not the people going in there to drink , they are on holiday probably, and say there’s 2-3 of them , and being told it’s ok obviously by the bar.. and only yesterday there was a queue of Thai people all standing next to each other right around the villa market queuing for free face masks about 300 all grouped together .. why was that allowed , and I don’t blame them either .. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's purposely mistranslated and exaggerated all out of proportion for the very purpose of being misleading and inflammatory. Just marketing. The idea is stir up the peanut gallery and get page views. Just the usual play on TVF posters' paranoia, bigotry, and love of victimism. Worked brilliantly again, too. It's so good that posters are going to ignore the fact that it's fake even when informed that it's fake! Needs to be some kind of regulation on fake news applied here specifically. However, don't you dare alter the TVF alteration of headlines & text from other sources! Edited March 20, 2020 by BigStar 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post FigaroLucowski Posted March 20, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 20, 2020 Of course the revellers are dumb to be flouting the rules at this time, it's serious...but to be honest, farangs who are back in bars drinking @ 10 AM after drinking all night, are alcoholics who don't give a sh#t if they get Covit--19 or die of cirrhosis of the liver. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doctorbailey Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Busy popular venue on Soi Bua Khao that was somewhat recently renovated. It is a restaurant serving breakfast, lunch, dinner, coffee, and of course beer. Is it a restaurant serving alcohol or a bar serving food? In the evening it has a pub atmosphere with a live band. No band 18th or 19th and their gear was covered. I think they have honored the government wish as no entertainment was provided and they were operating as a restaurant. Don't know their alcohol to non-alcohol sales ratio. Obviously a grey area. This will settle out in court more fairly but with expense. This is a case of jealousy and opportunity. People in Pattaya live in hotels or small apartments and many have no kitchens or no real means to prepare meals. Many will not catch coronavirus, be asymptomatic, or die of many other ailments afflicting them. People still need to go to restaurants to EAT. Many European descended people consume alcohol with meals, during leisure time, or during times of stress or celebration. Most of the "foreign customers" are meters away from others and in an outside environment. Probably as ideal as possible given the situation. The beach also had a renaissance of sorts as a venue of second choice and a pleasant place to relax without the Indian and Chinese Koh Larn bulk tour speedboat tourists clamoring all over the place. Should that have been closed as well? Why not Big Cs, the malls, gas stations, 7-11s, and so forth? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does it matter if they are drunk or not? Do you believe that people get immune against the virus if they are not drunk? Seriously! What a stupid comment. When I see fellow foreigners behaving this way, I feel the shame they put over all of us. That places would try to keep open anyway was expected, but that fellow foreigners can´t get of grip of the severity is totally unfathomable. Shame on all of you that are doing this, showing disregard and disrespect to your fellow human beings. Have you self isolated? Have you been to a restaurant? To a shopping Center? Tesco? 7-11? How exactly were they behaving? Is the Thai government still sitting? Is that showing disrespect? Are the Thai markets still open? Is that showing disrespect? Thai banks refusing to change cash from abroad, but still allowing Thai money to be in circulation, is that respectful? Is it only our money taht can get infected?

Actually no, just kidding, it doesn't do any of those things...but alcoholics need some fairy tales; reality's just too harsh for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
