Bar’s not closed due to labour department- more to do with shortening the sign.
Not sure how instant these things are but what happens with labour department will be interesting. If there’s no cash - maybe the staff are given the lease?
Thailand actually has some pretty strong labour laws, it’s not just a few months back pay due. A lot of redundancy is due for people with contracts and long term service.
My prediction will be Paul will give the landlady back the keys and fold company in debt. So all lights off completely very suddenly as no 1 left to pay the bills. Hotel at 100% occupancy won’t cover the bills.
Its been on lifesupport for years now- in the current pattaya scene you would need deep pockets, huge optimism and a miracle.
World moves on - 10years survival seems to be a miracle in Pattaya anyway.
