I'll be in HH in 4 weeks. Can't wait. Couldn't care less about bars open, or the availability of booze in a restaurant. Once you remove alcohol from the equation it is absolutely fine. 

With some it is not about the availability of Alcohol. It is about the having the choice. Anyone who seriously believes that 'high end" tourists will flock to Thailand needs a reality check. If you have money I can think of a lot more high end destinations around the world than Thailand. Thailand like it or not has built its holiday reputation on wine women and song with nice food and and enough culture for mongers to be able to say they go for the food and culture. The idea of a relatively cheap family destination is slowly disapearing with a strong baht, expensive alcohol and increasing prices. There is a vast chasm between what the government thinks will make Thailand tourism great again and what actually will. Maybe they should ask some of the small operators who relies on foreign tourists about the value of Chinese group tours and the indian tourists looking for a cheap holiday that they seem to be putting their hopes on.

Exactly is absurd and the operatirs now it is crap. They told the people that the high ebd tourists like taliban rules, no maintainance, dirty beach all clubs closed, no champagner and red wine. Exactly the opposite happend as everybdody knew before who not lost his mind. But the clowns, dumb heads, empty heads not stop to open their mouth. Reality is who pay the salary, operating costs and maintainance? Why is everything apart. Nobody in Thailand wanba hear anything from dumb and dumb or dumb clowns. Nobody wants this clowns anymore. Also this dumb heads who even advertise and advocat clowns to destroy Thailand are a embarassment. Nobody needs this clowns here! 

Tourist leave after one night after they realize everything is closed as predicted. Stop the Clowns

Exactly and it is what the operators think, too! But Clowns are Clowns and Clowns advocate Clowns.

Well what do you expect if less than the recommended 70% of the Thai population is “fully vaccinated” with actual vaccines. Nobody wants to visit that place. Not to mention A large portion of fully vaccinated were jabbed with Sinovac. And looked how that turned out for Indonesia and Malaysia.

Yeah, I was just speaking for myself. I know the booze scene is a big draw for some.

If you're double vaxxed with a good vaccine, why would people worry about other people's vaccines. I don't get that.
