Very draconian way of giving an example to others to follow the law, but if 2 months incarceration is handed out for drinking after 10pm then what kind of action was taken against the Thonglor nightclubs  that blatantly violated protocol and were directly responsible for spreading covid19 when most of the nation took precautions.

Even the Japanese Ambassador contracted it by visiting these upper class whore houses. Not a peep as to what happened to those responsible. 

Yet girls dancing in the makeshift hospitals and people having a beer after 10pm is enough to issue punishment. ... Makes you think.

Gee, another wind up clickbait fake news story.

They have already been sentenced and the 2 month prison sentence was wholly suspended.

Why wasn't that included in the TT "story"? 

Click, click, click.

Garbage

Not necessarily. Depends on crime, visa status, and I am sure a little cash under the table 

Would help sort things out.

The message is clear.

Prayut doesnt like alcohol. He doesnt like bars.

He doesnt want farangs here who drink 14hrs a day. No one does. 

When he uses the term 'high quality tourist'....it starts with flushing out the barflys. Thats when theyll start coming. 

Just watch...in 3 years Pattaya will be full of hi-so foreigners who buy gems and designer brands and completely devoid of sleazy bars and the zero shower farang that frequent them.

This recent authoritarian invented temperance movement has become quite bizarre....even chilling.

Good comment. Is Prayut teetotal, maybe. Yeah, that could explain things . . . if he doesn't like alcohol, then no one else must like alcohol. It could be something as selfish and bizarre as that.

You beat me to it. Again. Appaling "wind-up" reporting yet again, but sadly from a different reporter.  The fines are a standard 12,500 baht, and the two month sentences suspended - again standard.
