If I was flowers I'd rent out a couple of large rooms above the bar. Get it fitted with lighting and audio for live streaming. Then have girls constantly working online, selling snide tequilas to lonely men thousands of miles away. He can do this when the borders reopen, he'd a make a fortune. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modern 'free' online porn has created an insatiable market for livestream. Covid shutdowns have just added fuel to the fire. Popular Thai youtube videos (some with over 1 million 'streams) is also an 'entry' for what your describe... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be too quick to give credit to Byran for thinking outside the box and introducing the concept of livestreaming as another revenue source. I believe FLB was the first to provide a livestream via a webcam in their bar and invite customers to remotely buy LD's. That was back around 2009 or 2010. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far back as the mid-90's I remembered getting both the White and Yellow pages and immediately tossing them into the recycle bin. Even back then the information contained in the dead tree pages was readily available on the internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need tourists to survive. There's just not enough expats to go around. From what im hearing, whilst soi LK metro and parts of buakhao are holding up well, soi lengkee is apparently struggling.
