April 4, 200818 yr According to the PATTAYA MAIL, the Pattaya City Council has passed a resolution that would permit entertainment venues to remain open until 4:00 AM. Don't start jumping for joy just yet. What they passed is merely a resolution. The City Council doesn't get to make the final decision. That decision can come only from the Ministry of the Interior. However, the council has passed the resolution and those of you who prefer a return to wee hour closing times just might end up getting your wish. Of course, many entertainment venues have been flouting the law for years and have been closing whenever they feel like it, with apparent impunity (other than paying certain gentlemen in brown for the privilege, law or no law).

April 4, 200818 yr I love the 1AM closing time. It gets me to bed early and also the boys are not as tired the next day. I guess the night owls in the city will love it. For me, I much prefer the early closing time and I am most likely in the minority on this.
April 4, 200818 yr The boys will love the 4am closing. They can probably do 3 offs per nite in that time frame.
April 4, 200818 yr Author The boys will love the 4am closing. They can probably do 3 offs per nite in that time frame. I suppose that is technically possible, but have you been to the bars lately? Based on the number of customers I'm seeing in the bars, these boys would be lucky to get three offs per month.
April 11, 200818 yr I suppose that is technically possible, but have you been to the bars lately? Based on the number of customers I'm seeing in the bars, these boys would be lucky to get three offs per month. Are things still quiet? Any word on extending the hours or is this a long process?
April 11, 200818 yr Author Are things still quiet? Any word on extending the hours or is this a long process? Things are still quiet and there has been no further word.
April 12, 200818 yr What I have seen since I have been in Pattaya is that although the closing time is 1 a.m., the bars remain open until the last farang (as long as he is buying drinks and not sleeping) has gone. This is in Jomtein Complex and Soi Sunnee (sp); I am not sure of Boy's Town. The lights and music will be lowered and the majority of the boys will be released, but I have seen places open until 2 a.m.
