March, 23 March for advance election and 30 March for Senate election.

The Thai laws states NO selling of alcohol from 6 PM Saturday to 12 midnight Sunday. 7-11 have signs posted and fridge padlocked. The only exception to this is if you have a hotel licenses, btw RR does.

So technically we have 2 dry weekends coming up. This is a nation wide election.

For you as the partaker no but for the owner of an institution for the distribution of said liquid refreshment they can be and mostly are fined 10,000 baht for bragging rights of furnishing coffee cups and brown paper bags.Yes I know of those that have been caught. Roll the dice and take your chance..//flag
 
Im sure they pay their dues to the BIB mate. They do it openly in Sangka, within walking distance of the cop shop. No brown paper bags or coffee cups, just regular plastic bags and away you go. Its only, the supermarkets and chain convenience stores that are really affected by this.

Oh dreary me. Worse comes to worse I'll just not wear a helmet on my scooter and refuse to pay the THB 200 or show a proper license to obtain the violation ticket.
I'll just request they haul my 'ol American ass to the cop shoppe.

The duty officer will shake his head as he can not believe I refuse to pay the THB 200 fine whereas I'll tell him my tale of woe - basically plead, "As I'm not a privileged Thai citizen who is allowed to vote , why can I not imbibe an alcoholic beverage ?"

At that point he'll offer me whiskey and we'll drink for a few hours while he peruses confiscated pornographic rags thoroughly smiling and displaying several said center-fold pics with the phrase, "How about this one, you like ?"
I'll smile as I jokingly say, "I have her phone number somewhere" or "Not that one. Those aren't real." 10of10Score

In the end I'll have to pay for the two bottles for the off-duty officers and request a ride home as I'll probably be soused :tongue:

If it's close to midnight I'll request they take me straight-away to the disco Jump_Drool

You gotta love this country Chokdee5
