Thai people continue to bonk and drink? Think twice:

2016Summae – following the official announcement of the death of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej there is now an official period of mourning of one year from 14 October 2016; you should respect the feelings and sensitivities of the Thai people at this time; access to entertainment, including restaurants, bars, and shopping areas may be restricted and you should behave respectfully when in public areas; if possible, wear sombre and respectful clothing when in public; check local media regularly and follow the advice of the local authorities

Think twice? I think u really dun understand Thai people. As much as many are mourning for the king , the majority of the Thai people are much more bothered about their own lives. People will still bonk and drink. Drugs will still be abused , alcohol shall be consumed privately. Public holiday today , some cinemas are closed as well as tv has nothing to show. Of course more will be bonking away at home/hotels.
