Throw in a bunch of hookers crawling over dozens of different men all night. A covid cocktail.

If one of them is carrying COVID19.

 

Which none currently are.

How can you have social distancing with massage places and those types of places?

 

Put a plastic sheet between your body and theirs?

What will the decision be on bars in Hotels?  Thai government are anxious to stimulate that market with their 50% incentive, but will customers return if they can’t enjoy a drink ( alcohol ) by the pool or with their meal ?

 

If they can serve then the hotel bars will be packed with non-residents that want a social drink, or will the hotel only be allowed to serve guests?

Await some outstanding solution  to this conundrum.

Which, sadly, you just don't know!   That's the whole dilemma with Covid - anyone MIGHT be carrying and spreading it without showing any symptoms - that includes you and me!

No point really since there aren't any tourists arriving.

 

You don't think expats and Thai people drink or visit massage parlours?

I ceded the point above that some venues do cater to locals.

It's like Christmas For Nazis.

 

All over the world, fascists and megalomaniacs are taking control, and ordinary people are allowing them to do so.  Remember, you heard it elsewhere first!

I actually wasn't thinking when I asked why open with no tourists.  Some venues actually cater to locals.  My friend owns a music bar that has a regular clientele that is all local.  Not a lot of them but they DRINK like a lot. ????

Very shortly, I think that Pattaya will be filled with Chinese tourists, and as far as I know, the Chinese do not frequent Bars, Go Gos or whatever else they are called. So what are they going to do for custom apart from the expats who live there?

Chinese males could look for sex or brides in other countries. Because of their one child policy there are much more males than females in China. The question is what all the lonely males will do - at least those with enough money to travel.

The death receipe exists also in Thailand: Starvation due to unemplyment and no assistance it's called

I sympathise with the out of work people in Thailand - that's a tragedy that could have been remedied with government intervention - but to compare death rates from starvation and those death rates infected by the global virus outside Thailand is ridiculous.

Are the really fun places going to be closed for a really long time?

Yep! If they are funny or not, might be debatable, though. I guess everyone have their own preferences of what fun is.

Being a non drinker I never go into bars, though I did go to Pattaya sometimes, and I have heard and read so many times that the Chinese men do not visit the bars, in fact they are not supposed to spend much either, I suppose it could be the case that they pick up free lancers.

But I suppose I could be wrong.

i heard that Chinese men were going to gogos in walking street, pointing to a girl and barfining her with zero interaction with the girl first, the girls don't like it but money talks. A freelancer girl i know unfortunately was picked up by a Chinese guy, who only wanted to pay 130 baht or something, she managed to escape after lots of tears. So....it sounds not widespread yet but they aren't following normal protocols

Why is it good?  People have lost everything they worked for and owned.  They have lost jobs.  An entire city economy is crashing to the ground that may not recover to anything like it was in the past.  How in any conceivable universe is this good?    I don't understand reveling in others suffering.

No it’s not.  No-one is counting the deaths from poverty, through starvation, malnutrition, suicide, workplace accidents in impoverished jobs, lack of medical care.

Other people’s suffering is great if you’re a Puritan.  Revelling in it is the only pleasure they are allowed - perhaps with the exception of enjoying regular bowel movements from healthy consumption of fibre.  Personally, I wish they’d just concentrate on getting the most out of their movements, and stop interfering in our lives
