Let's face it, in some bars most customers are tourists, there for a one-off experience, so charging them as much as you possibly can makes perfect sense as they won't be coming back anyway.

Which is the same reason for never eating in a restaurant which has “tourist menu” signs outside.
They know you arent coming back and serve any old crap.

Perhaps they could introduce two-tier pricing - a lower price for locals and a higher price for tourists? In the gogo bars you could have a membership card, maybe call it a "Frequent Fucker" card, that would get you lower-priced drinks, bar fines etc.?
My understanding is that only the businesses on the left hand side of the soi are affected by the hotel development. Apparently buildings on right hand side will remain. Whether the the businesses on the right hand side can survive in a one sided soi with a big construction site opposite is a different question.
Maybe the new Hotel will have rooms opening directly on to the Soi!!
They can charge a Premium, like 3 times rate for other rooms...
Capitalism at Work!!!

what a great business plan - it's a wonder the national parks and other tourist attractions haven't thought of it already
the owners on the right haven't sold out YET but they are rumoured to be threatening to put rents up thus making survival even more unlikely!
