I thought the entertainment industry was replaced by restaurants that close at a reasonable time. Outside of restaurants not much is left.

Root cause is at the airport/government policy on COVID, so later closing time isn't likely to increase the number of customers. 

Fewer cows in the pasture these days.  2 more hours will allow them to be milked for a few extra Baht.

I don't think these places are selling milkshake after 9 PM. They're supposed to be restaurants.

Where I live, we've been drinking a lot of late night coffee from coffee mugs.
