It is NOT the new UK super strain, it is a variant ( Mutation ) that has been found in numerous countries & with people that have no recent or any travel history, stop with the exaggeration.

Save your breath. The anti-Brit brigade would have it that it all started there, nothing to do with the Chinese, never, always the Brits, they are the enemy remember.

Fourteen people present - Thai bar staff and foreign patrons - were having a noisy drinks party at 12:30am this morning.

Some people just don't learn, go home and continue in private... not hard to grasp!

Some live in small condos/rooms and are happy to be out in the open.

Yes, I often feel those in close proximity to say Jomtien Beach are fortunate, can get out a bit and get exercise.... then a few cans at home and off to bed. Behaviour like this is how the booze bans come about. 

[Ventenio]

1 million baht fine

quarantine at 200,000 baht

blacklisted 10-years

1-year jail sentence.

 

big headlines....all foreigners talking about it...

 

then one-week later.....the real penalty is only  30,000 baht fine, and covid test.

This Tree Town area was always very special. Extreme noise, not caring about closing times, selling of Shisha at many bars - a lawless place? Obviously.

Almost constant coverage on Thai news TV currently about covid, which naturally includes coverage of the worst affected countries and the new UK super strain spreading across the globe.

As a foreigner sitting at home, I can honestly say I don't care.

My misses, as a Thai sitting at home, says she doesn't care either.

 

Surprised at all the 'righteous hate' posts.

I think the Puritans like to gather around these issues... It gets their righteous anger juices flowing. I can hear them sputtering green bile as the mouth the words they type... 

 

It makes me laugh, 555!

Strange i was in treetown last night at 10.30pm,never heard a thing.All the food stalls at the front were closing on time...........party must of been more towards second road.

 

On another note Jomtien night market is no longer serving beer as from two days ago, you can still purchase a smoothie though................i dare say a few people will take a vodka/gin filled water bottle in to add to said smoothie

 

Abhorrent behaviour .....

This is not argument on if dangerous or not, but what rules were broken exactly?  I'm just playing devil's advocate.

As I understand,
there is no curfew
alcohol is not banned

(but is banned from a bar/restaurant selling it to you. takeaway is ok),
and if you are consuming something no mask is ok.

Is there a gathering limit again?  (which doesn't apply in restaurants or mall lol)

I'm not up to speed on this as it changes daily...and I'm in home by 7 and in bed by 10 daily so have no idea what fun people do .

What were Pattaya Plod doing working at this time?  The smell of money must have been  very strong.

Alcohol has been banned from places that are not restaurants.  This place was clearly not a restaurant.  And, if you take away, you can not go somewhere and sit in a large group and drink.

Ignorant cretins, lock em up for a while to teach them a lesson.

Always the few who screw it up for everyone else.

Not hard to find a massage on offer in that area ,I guess if not a registered shop it is tolerated?

Correct, but they are also still restricted to the selling of alcohol as it was prior.... 11-14.00, and 17:00 -(midnight). They lost the last couple of hours of alcohol sales. I fear the actions of these boozers will call this into question.

Nothing is wrong with Thailand.

If you do not understand why the restriction is needed, then you  are the one who is wrong.

Have a look at the crisis in USA, and UK. Today on news I see Canada have hospitals in state of collapse because no more ICU capacity. In Los Angeles, UK and Canada it seems, people will be denied medical care and allowed to die. Thailand has no resources like these countries and would be quickly drowned with sick if strict measures not taken.

Just watched UK News where a children's ICU ward has been taken over for use for Covid patients in London. Anyone still claiming this is 'just the flu' needs their head bashing.

It serves them right. These idiots have got sxxt for brains. The  Farangs should be deported and the Thais put in the big house for a while. That will teach them a lesson.

Due to there being few flights the falangs would have to be detained for a spell too.
