Will it be up to each individual province though?

However the final decision in each province rests with the local governor.

"General Somsak Rungsita, Secretary-General of the National Security Council, said that from the issue Liquors and spirits can be bought back from the store. But can not sit and drink in the shop Effective on May 3, which is expected on May 2, B.E., will declare all details again. Which the Ministry of Interior will coordinate with the provincial governor To understand the aforementioned measures And is the power of the provincial governor to consider and approve in each area again."

Imagine the rush there is going to be as panicky drinkers stock up for Armageddon. If there have been no deliveries what supplies that are still out there could soon get snapped up with people fighting to get a look in.

Of course , if it is not just a one day wonder that scenario is not applicable.

Ok All You Whiners from other related posts:

 

Run to the stores and stock up on your favorite adult beverages b4 the rule changes again. 

 

With all the money you've conserved during this "Prohibition", you should be able to deplete 7-11, Big C, Tesco, Foodland, etc., of their alcoholic beverages.  

 

I hope the POS (point of sale) machines don't fail during Your purchase.   ????????
