On the other hand, Mr. Phiphat Ratchakitprakarn, Minister of Tourism and Sports, said that he will continue to propose to the BOE meeting in September to consider extending the opening hours of entertainment venues in controlled areas (zones) in major tourist cities to At 4.00 am from now open until 02.00, despite the current criticism of the idea.
Let me emphasize that this is not an extension of the opening hours of entertainment venues in all areas.
Zones must be clearly defined.
Management is good enough.
The proposed opening of entertainment venues until 4:00 will be in line with the behavior of foreign tourists, such as Europe and the Middle East, who start dinner at around 10 p.m. before they finish eating and start drinking at midnight.
When the fun starts, it's time to close the entertainment venues even though you still want to eat and drink.
In foreign countries, there will be entertainment venues open more than 02.00. For example, Thai people themselves, when going abroad, want to travel to the fullest as well.
So I don't want to worry about this idea.

There may be a crime.
But if zones are set to extend the opening hours of entertainment venues, it is believed that 70-80% of crime can be guaranteed. It is important to accelerate action.
Because when it's beyond the legal closing time, some operators are secretly open anyway.
But if allowed to open until 04.00, everything is transparent.
Operators do not have to worry that the officers will enter and search.
Zoning is important.

Therefore, this should be done correctly.

Operators in the area form a team to discuss with the provincial governor that they want to organize a zoning area.
Then the Ministry of Tourism will help push another layer.
