Ban on alcohol sales and consumption for Visakha Bucha Day
The Royal Thai police remind us that today is a sacred Buddhist holiday and there will be no alcohol sales throughout the country. The ban for Visakha Bucha Day is in place for 24 hours from midnight last night (Friday) to midnight tonight (Saturday).
People caught selling alcohol are liable to a 10,000 baht fine and six months in jail. The holiday marks the birth, enlightenment and death of the Lord Buddha.
