The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) will set up a panel to work with the Royal Thai Police to review zoning for restaurants, bars and entertainment venues in response to people's current lifestyle in terms of dining.
Bangkok governor Chadchart Sittipunt said on Tuesday the Interior Ministry had classified dining zones in three areas including Patpong Road, Makkasan Road around RCA, and Ratchadaphisek Road near Huai Khwang and the Sutthisan area since 2002 so as to regulate tourists and prevent them from causing a disturbance to local residents.
