They could have been any bar.
They are all taking a “ realistic” approach.

I gather theses “realistic” approaches has lead to the closure of Boystown and will push the authorities to have no choice but to close these so called bar restaurants and will possibly curtail the ability to sell alcohol once again in restaurants, already as of today restaurants are ordered to close at PM. As Covid infections appear to be doubling almost daily the “realistic approaches” are destine to close any and all venues selling alcohol.

The evidence that restrictions “work” for Omicron can be inferred from the following:

I do not understand that comment. Nothing is mandated as of today. What do you mean by “to close at PM”??
Bars (restaurants!) in Pattaya are permitted to sell booze without restriction until Sunday 9 January . Normal closing times apply.
Then they are to stop selling booze after 9 pm. I assume you can drink up, finish your meal, etc until later.
Boyztown bars have been totally closed “for your safety” since 6 January...see goji’s pic below.
I hope someone in the know can explain why they were totally closed 4 days prior to the ‘early closing’ date.

Frankly, I think as long as bars/restaurants that actually use testing results taken within the prescribed 72 hours should be allow to remain open as long as they want.
Done at home yesterday…..

Yes, while the actual places where people are catching the virus remain open. It's like being at Disneyland.
They were setting up those huge bleachers for spectators again on Jomtien Beach last week to host another mega sporting event. No antigen tests going on there...but the bars and restaurants where all these spectators go after the event have to test people and are being forced to close as a result. Even Disney would be blown away be this level of creativity. It's similar to Fantasia!

According to CCSA - Self-tests at home or “photos” of a negative test are no longer allowed.

I don't think it ever was allowed, as the originally announced requirement was for testing either on the restaurant premises or at an official centre.
MFAS being allowed in with his photo of a claimed self-test was no more legal than bars allowing me in with no test. Just a different way of turning a blind eye.

I don’t deem this a problem as I have purchased a large supply of tests and if I am going somewhere that hopefully requires a test I can produce a new unused kit.
BTW one also should use common sense and avoid crowded places such as malls, supermarkets and bars/restaurants that flagrantly disregard testing.
