Thai Enquirer reports on its X (formerly Twitter) account on November 3rd, 2023:

All types of entertainment venues and restaurants in certain zones of Bangkok, Chonburi, Phuket, and Chiang Mai will be allowed to stay open until 4 a.m., starting on December 15, said Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin. This measure will be temporary, and the Ministry of the Interior will later announce the specific zones eligible to stay open until 4 a.m. The goal of this measure is to support tourism in these provinces, as the government believes that allowing entertainment venues and restaurants in certain zones to operate later will encourage greater spending. Srettha said some foreign tourists don't dine out until 9 or 10 p.m., and extending the opening hours of certain entertainment venues and restaurants would encourage them to spend more. Update: Thai Enquirer reports on its X (formerly Twitter) account on November 4th, 2023: In another bizarre turnaround by the government, Interior Minister Anutin Charnvirakul said allowing pubs, bars, and clubs to remain open until 4 a.m. does not necessarily mean an extension of drinking hours. He explained that extending the opening hours without extending the drinking hours would enable people to sit and socialize for a longer duration. Anutin also said non-alcoholic beverages can still be served, and other services will remain operational for extended periods, potentially leading to the creation of more job opportunities.

Update (November 7th): Bangkok Post Anutin clarifies alcohol sales hours for 4am closing
