Thread: Alcohol Advertising Rules Remain Unchanged as Senate Reviews New Bill

Thai national media provided updates on the Alcohol Control Bill, which the Senate accepted in principle during its first reading on March 31st, following approval by the House of Representatives in the second and third readings on March 19th. The bill includes provisions related to alcohol advertising.


The Senate has appointed a 27-member special committee to review amendments within seven days. Senator Tewarit Maneechai stated briefly that the bill would return for Senate debate after July 3rd, with amendment discussions scheduled for July 17th.


Meanwhile, Dr. Suthat Chottanapund, Deputy Director-General of the Department of Disease Control, clarified that the current 2008 Alcohol Control Act remains in force. He addressed public confusion circulating online, emphasizing that 24-hour alcohol sales and unrestricted advertising are still prohibited.

Violations of advertising rules can result in up to one year in jail, fines up to 500,000 baht, and additional daily fines. Alcohol sales must still comply with designated hours—11:00 AM to 2:00 PM and 5:00 PM to midnight—with violations carrying penalties of up to six months’ imprisonment or a 10,000-baht fine.

Yeah. The grown up world stopped the scams like "Chang Water" and "Singha Water" a long time ago though.

I wonder why they don't ever mention this in Thailand? *

Yeah, the 'grown up world' has Guinness 0.0 and the like instead.

At least 'grown ups' actually drink Leo soda water. In fact it's probably their best product.

I can see the merit of allowing adverts for zero alcohol beer.

What I can't see is the fucking pricing being sane.

My point was that this 'grown up world' you were posting about is about a decade behind what is well established in Thailand.

Leo and Chang et al just started bottling water and advertising it.

Western booze companies spent a fortune creating drinks nobody fkin wants.

Fvck but you're thick.

2 of the forums drunks arguing pointlessly about alcohol.

The UK just made tax changes to make low alcohol beer cheaper.

It seems, as usual, you're just missing the fucking point.
