Thai Spice Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 1 hour ago, misteregg said: I don’t think that the bloodbath for beer bars on soi 6 etc will be as bad as everyone thinks. I think the chill will be felt on Walking St and LK, where landlords are ruthless and rents are astonishingly high. I know of several big WS gogos that won’t reopen. But, beer bars, massage shops with low rent and salaries will be ok. When I mentioned S6, it was just a hypothetical example. I am speaking about Pattaya globally.

Now, there is a glimmer of hope that June 15 we can open, although nothing official. Tourism probably will return before the high season, with few restrictions. June the 15 is a very realistic prospect. Tourists back before high season. Not a hope on earth, airlines are laying off staff. 14 day quarantines, covid free certificates, covid insurance etc. Not going to happen I'm afraid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BINGO, i could'nt agree more Gally. I'd like to think that when Phil's gaff reopens we can all rally to the cause and have a big party night there with two objectives - * Celebrate getting back to some normality. * Spending all the dosh that we have'nt been able to during lockdown lol 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The world is walking on its head with this... I am probably treading in the middle somewhere in terms of precautions but I see certain suggestions as to the way out of this pandemic as unrealistic and impractical.

Horizondave Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 Have to agree with Tommy. Le Pub is an institution for many including me but the information being posted is relevant to all members (and businesses) and should be posted in the appropriate section. The info about flights could offer up more posts, many of which may lead to less than favourable responses which again should not be associated with Le Pub. This is Pattaya 247 when I last checked and directing posts and threads in the appropriate section is right for all members, airline practices are relevant to all and should not be in this section. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is THAILAND 247, not PATTAYA 247. 🙂 OK, a bit of a slip up there but kind of emphasises my point. It is 247 not Secrets, PL or Le Pub. I love Le Pub and will support Phil by popping in if in town but I am on this forum to be entertained and informed in many areas of what is happening in Thailand and the many topics raised by other members with associations with Thailand. The founders have added all the sections so that topics can be posted in the appropriate area. Tommy should decide the way forward and his, and Lanzalad's, views should not be questioned. Issues should be taken by messaging admin if you disagree. You see, I have just added this post here in response to yours and, really, it is wholly inappropriate for this section, it has nothing to do with the OP and that is the problem.

tommy dee Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 7 hours ago, Jambo said: I cannot say I agree with your comment. Any post in the Le Pub topic keeps the business name in front of potential customers and Phil will need as much as support he can get from expats and board members who are able to visit. Many of recent posts have been about airlines current and future practices and their effect on tourism in Pattaya. Those airline practices are as relevent to Le Pub as any other business in Pattaya. om qa good day you would disagree with yourself in a padded room :) the point is that this a business page in the business section, ( and this isnt shh). so other issues can easily go into the covid thai or no thai pages. its not brain surgery but i guess it gives u a reason to type . cheers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misteregg Posted May 13, 2020 Author Share Posted May 13, 2020 I have had my designer put together a flyer/infographic for when the bar opens.This is a rough first draft, it will be in Thai and German language as well.The “wear a mask” thing is silly as nobody can whilst drinking, but, I put it in there to please the police/authorities, however in reality nobody will.Any thoughts?Today, I Have to tell the staff the future wage/salary/commissions structure of the bar after we open.and I fear it may hit them hard as reality sinks in and they realize that they won’t be working in a tourist rich bar for a while.But I want to be honest with them and tell them the way forward now so they can make future plans as soon as possible. I suspect many staff may bail out, but I have to be realistic with them or the bar won’t make it.I have heard some horror stories from restaurants who have recently opened and are losing money and plan to close again soon. But with good/realistic planning the bar can continue. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
