Nation weeps over His Majesty's departure

Recommended Posts

Guest rappa999

You make so many ridiculous statements, it is hard to keep up with them.  I certainly come here for the cute available cheap sex but over 15 years I have come to realize just how important  the King was to the Thai people. Far too many reasons that I don't understand fully but I recognize the love and the feeling of loss that all Thai people feel.

 

As far as cheap available Sex not being  comparable anywhere else in the world, you probably better travel more.

 

Brazil, Cuba, Mexico, Colombia and many other Asian countries where it is just as available and if not quite as cheap that the distances to travel are much shorter and cheaper. Now if you wanted to preface your argument regarding those that like Rice Queens make a slight bit truer. But then Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, Vietnam , Bali and more all fit the bill.

 

So basically your argument is ridiculous!

ok sorry for being ridiculous

 

I must have imagined reading numerous posts about you guys putting your cock up young thai guy's arses

bragging about your conquests and discussing how little you pay these young guys for this.

 

I'm not being ridiculous, the sanctimonious guys on here are being ridiculous, this is a forum for gay sex

and prostitution in Thailand, it's not about Thailand, it's people or it's culture, you'll get that on other forums,

stop pretending your such nice considerate guys, it's all about sex, stop pretending otherwise.

 

to criticise posters for posting comments on "topics" about the very reason this forum exists is ridiculous

 

firecat69 I've enjoyed reading your posts and adventures, you're a sex maniac!, you've had so much

fun exploiting thailand and it's young male population, good for you, no one's getting hurt, keep having

your fun which in the west would have people crossing the street to avoid you, of course I'm sure you

do no harm and the young thai guys you use as prostitutes have fun too?

 

I will post no more on this but to the guys on here who think you should not be concerned about the sad events impact on their holiday and/or regular Thailand activities can have a reality check, we're all sex

tourists and that is why we come on to this site, just because the nation we visit for our sex tourism has

just had their saddest day in 80 years doesn't change that fact, maybe the sad events will make you have

a re-think about your lurid activities? if so I'm sure you'll find many travel forums with all the Thai culture you wish to read about?..........I think not!

How to get boys there? Only via the apps, or like Thailand they have venues for this too, think of go go bars.

Or in a country like Colombia you must rely on the gay dating apps to spot a twink escort?

BANGKOK — In the wake of His Majesty King Bhumibol’s death Thursday, the authorities have called for 30 days without entertainment.

Most events this weekend have been canceled, and some venues announced they would close temporarily, either for the day, through the weekend or until further notice. Some will remain open as usual, only canceling special events.

What does this mean for people living in the capital? What will be open and what will be closed? We put together what we know to expect so far. Check back for updates, and as a general rule: Call ahead first.

Restaurants and Cafes

Most restaurants and cafes will open as usual, but patrons should check with any planned venue as some have announced they will close.

Movies

Movie theaters will remain open, but some chains were closed Friday. Check their websites.

SF Cinema: All branches are closed Friday

Major Cineplex: Open as usual

House RCA: Closed on Friday, open Saturday onward

Lido and Scala: Open as usual

Nightlife

Soi Cowboy, popular among tourists, has announced it will be closed indefinitely.

Alcohol Sales

Alcohol will be sold during the usual hours of 11am-2pm, from 5pm-midnight, according to Samarn Futrakul, of the alcohol control board. Alcohol sales will be banned on Saturday, which is Wan Ok Phansa, or the last day of Buddhist Lent.

Clubs

Some nightlife venues will go dark, some not. Again, best to check ahead. Beam and Demo in Thonglor, Levels and Sugar in Nana and Silom’s Whiteline announced they were closed until further notice.

Bars

While bars will be allowed to operate, they must close at 1am and no types of parties will be tolerated within them, Thanakorn Kuptajit of the Thai Alcohol Beverage Business Association said.

However some bars will be closed this weekend, so again — check ahead.

TV

Although the junta is returning broadcasting authority to the stations at midnight, there will be limitations on what can be shown, with no entertainment programs allowed. Channel 3 posted on Facebook that all soap operas and series won’t be allowed. Announcement of when they will resume will be made later.

Concerts

The sold-out Morrissey concert has been cancelled. Refunds are available at places of purchase, according to organizer Viji Corp.

Nineties rockers Modern Dog postponed their 22nd-anniversary concert until further notice, according BEC-Tero Entertainment.

Special Events

The Oct. 17 Full Moon Party on Koh Phangan is canceled.

Saturday’s Kolour Warehouse Party is also canceled, with refund information to be announced.

The Color Run event this weekend at Airport Rail Link Makkasan is canceled with the condolences from organizers. Information on full refunds will be posted on its Facebook page.

The book expo at Queen Sirikit National Convention Center which began on Oct. 13, will run according to plan until Oct. 24. While discussion panels on Atrium stage and meeting rooms can be arranged as normal, all broadcast and entertainment activities in every booth are forbidden.

Theatre

Rachadalai Theatre has canceled all October performances of “Lordlai Mangkorn The Musical,” which was to open tonight. More shows and ticket refunds are to be announced.

“Firefly’s Tales The Musical” at Siam Pic-Ganesha Theatre also cancel 13 forthcoming shows. Tickets can be refunded at Thai Ticket Major.

Thanks.  Really good to get such practical information.

I am sure the original author and publisher thought so too that's why they put in the research effort rather than just copy/paste from someone else - obviously Moses has a different interpretation of Khaosod's claim to copyright than I do

I/We need to salute the Thais for their outpouring of emotions over the loss of their beloved KING.

Over here in Singapore, the Thai embassy remains open for those who want to pay their last respects for this very MAN.

May his soul rest in peace forever and may the Thais recover from this imminent death swiftly.

 

One question:

I've heard that there is a 30 day blanket ban on entertainment..how true is it?

Colombia has Massage places doubt if they have GoGo but they certainly have gay bars. Been 2 years since I visited who knows what else has popped up.

As this is mainly reporting closues of "straight" entertainment, I guess I'll find out monday, which bars etc. in Silom are open oder closed. I'm scheduled to arrive in BKK on monday and was planning to visit Soi 4 with my boyfriend.

I am surprised how little attention the death of the King has had in the US. 

Maybe we are all embroiled in the Donald Trump phenomenon,

but I read about the King yesterday in the paper... on page eight!

Also I saw nothing of him on the main page of news websites.

 

I feel of course sadness for the King and sympathy with the Thai people,

but I see nothing wrong in being concerned mainly about the Thai sex industry.

If it comes down to sympathy,  I think the people in Syria deserve some more,

but we don't need to tell this to the Thai.

News of the King's passing was on the front page of the New York Times but not quite as a headline.

CNN had a "live" reporter at the hospital during the vigil and his death conducting interviews. This was a big news story here in Asia.

but you do know the source you got it from even if you don't know the original source so mention that rather than try to pass off as your own

Saturday's NY Times had lengthy article on The King's passing, and another article on the Crown Prince that would probably not be printed in Thailand.

How sad, your source must be a gay man living in the Russian Federation.  Try using Unknown when it is obvious that something is a repost,  I agree with emailbroken this is a tempest in a teapot in that I, unlike BKK, do not in anyway think you posted this to take personal credit for it.  Just a mistake.  Please keep posting things you think we might like to read.
