A law enforcement officer courteously notifies a traveler about the short-lived suspension of alcohol sales in bars and dining establishments, in accordance with the spiritual observance of Makha Bucha Day.

PATTAYA, Thailand— On February 24, regional authorities in Banglamung district carried out an extensive examination of night life facilities to implement the restriction on alcohol sales, accompanying Makha Bucha Day, a considerable Buddhist spiritual observance throughout which the sale of alcohols is strictly restricted by law.

In a precise operation, officers focused their examination on the dynamic Strolling Street location in South Pattaya. Especially, all company operators voluntarily adhered to the legal restriction, without delay shutting down their services to honour the spiritual day.

While a substantial variety of travelers were observed going back to their lodgings, authorities extended their assessments to other home entertainment zones, making sure stringent adherence to the restriction on alcohol sales throughout this spiritual celebration.
Organizations discovered flouting the alcohol restriction dealt with serious legal repercussions, consisting of jail time for as much as 6 months and fines not surpassing 10,000 Baht.
Preliminary reports show that company operators reacted cooperatively, acknowledging the significance of sticking to the law on spiritual days. Since February 25, alcohol sales have actually resumed throughout Thailand.

Travelers walk on the poorly lit Strolling Street in Pattaya, where most nightlife places were shuttered in observance of Makha Bucha Day, without any alcohol being served, producing an uncommon environment of peaceful reflection in the middle of the generally lively scene.
