BANGKOK has 20 public parks and some of them are quite spectacular.
However, drinking in public isn’t going to be tolerated anymore.
The City of Bangkok has enacted a ban on the sale and consumption of all alcoholic beverages in its parks.
The penalties for violators will be stiff; those caught selling or drinking alcohol in the parks could get 6 months in jail and/or get hit with a 10 thousand baht fine.
Doing the math; a 10 thousand Baht fine converts to about 320 U.S. dollars, 160 Pounds, or 204 Euros.
I wrote about jail and prisons in Thailand in my eBook;
Bangkok: Secrets of a Seductive City
They’re not a place you want to go.
The Government will use the Alcohol Control Act to enforce the alcohol ban.
You can learn a lot more about Bangkok and decide for yourself if it’s a place to just visit or retire to.
