The Pattaya police were tipped off by Soi Wat Boon Samphan residents that a certain pub in the area was holding regular drinking parties on the premises, which they knew went against the lockdown orders enacted by the Chonburi Disease Control Department.

In other bar news, a video that popped also 2 days ago, shows a well-known Pattaya “Coconut Bar” has relocated to Soi Buakhao. The video depicts seductively-dressed women and older Pattaya expats sitting together without masks as they drank. A motorcycle rider in the area confirmed that the women suspected of being prostitutes are there every night.
