Popular Post checkered flag Posted July 29, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 29, 2020 The restaurant was upfront and let everyone know (in clear English), for that they should be commended. I'd much rather know than go into the place that I'm unwanted. It's really up to them and they appeared very polite in asking the guy to leave. They don't need covid, or other reasons to refuse service, it's 100% up to them. They didn't employ a bouncer to manhandle unwanted guests at the door either. If you come to my house, I have the right to invite you in or not. I also have a German Shepard that can quickly sense friend or foe so no one tries. Don't go where you are not welcome! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not scared. Worry. How I know? Maybe it Logosone, Dr Tuner, ionsone, etc. 1 in 6 not full baht. Refusing service to a customer because of their race is illegal in my country, but my country is not a banana republic like Thailand. A foreigner is not more likely to have COVID-19 than a Thai. There are way more Thai people entering Thailand from overseas (repatriated) who could be infected with the virus and who could break their quarantine. Did you ever think of that? Given the closure of the border to most foreigners it is actually less likely that a random foreigner would be infected than a random Thai. By the way, despite my "banana republic" comment, I love Thailand. It is a pity, however, that there are so many ignorant Thais with this kind of banana republic mentality. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for a non-childish common sense approach. The restaurant is miles from anywhere and has little to zero farang traffic but some still have to cry about it. Thanks. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went there before and if they had said my custom was not wanted I would been very annoyed. If you think it's right that an establishment can refuse custom based on colour of skin, well...

Remember TIT. I know what it is, my local Thai bar and it's owners helped me last year when I had a problem and I needed to go to Suttisan police station. They are good friends of mine and it's a shame I can't spend my money in their bar, one day maybe I can return. I don't find this attitude very helpful from these bars being like this, but as you say it ain't my country. I've always been respectful in Thailand and this bar complex is one of the best in BKK for a chilled atmosphere, hardly any foreigners and just locals.

EVENKEEL Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 For folks who get upset over this should stay away from Japan where it's common practice to deny service to foreigners. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That mentality applies to god who runs Thailand, he was worried about the comments of Boss's not guilty being approved, he was worried because the people that decided to do this were above him and Boss has more power than him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keystonecoppers2 Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Well, I can spend my money at the restaurant across the street. I hope your business soon will go bust. What goes around, comes around. Don`t complain when that happens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

varun Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 (edited) Bangkok has a perpetual oversupply of restaurants. With the current under-supply of potential customers, there's no need to get worked up so much about one establishment - they won't last long with that kind of attitude anyways.

What a non surprise. Still it is just one ugly wart amongst thousands of cute dimples. Most Thai people are far superior than its current government.
