![]() ![]() As a result of the outbreak of Covid-19 disease in Samut Sakhon and Rayong, Chonburi Governor Pakarathorn Thienchai announced today that both Banglamung and Pattaya must enter heavily controlled status. This means the closure of all non-essential shops, bars, dancings, nightclubs, karaoke clubs, malls, etc.
Restaurants are restricted to takeout and delivery only.
On December 31st, the obviously overburdened governor from Chonburi suddenly decided that restaurants could serve guests and resume serving alcoholic beverages with immediate effect.
On January 4th, 2021, Chonburi's governor published "improved" regulations:
Now restaurants can serve customers with food, but without alcoholic drinks, from 06:00 to 21:00. After 21:00, venues can only sell takeaway food (but including alcoholic beverages).
Under the new rules, department stores can remain open, including all retail outlets (except cloth shops).
It shows again that the country's leaders speak before they use their brains.

Change of mind?
![]() On June 2nd, Pattaya City Mayor Sonthaya Khunpluem welcomed prominent business leaders and officials at Pattaya City Hall to discuss the proposal of a new look and feel of the world's (in)famous Walking Street.
Mayor Sonthaya said that the redesign needs to be smart and modern as well as aesthetically pleasing but not cause negative effects to people lives and the overall fascination and atmosphere of the neon lights and vibe of the street.
The new design should make Walking Street become alive not only during the night but also during daytime, he added.
Mayor Sonthaya assured the audience, that City Hall's leaders are committed to keeping nightlife and entertainment venues a core attraction of the city.
This is a 180 degree U-turn, as Sonthaya's younger brother Itthiphol Khunpluem, the former Mayor of Pattaya, always claimed to ban the red light districts from Pattaya and turn the city into a kindergarden (read Family Resort).
Obviously the Family Clan has realized that there is no money to be made with children and only prohibited* activities can fill the pockets of the greedy officials.
*Prostitution and related activities are still prohibited in this Kingdom
