Khao San Road is being used as a pilot zone against bribery involving entertainment venues. The PACC has 60 days to decide whether to open a formal inquiry into alleged bribes paid to officials for protection from enforcement. Authorities will also review building and business-establishment laws for loopholes, since officials say businesses may pay bribes when permits or setup rules block them. If you run a venue or any licensed business, check your permits, opening hours and licence paperwork now, because enforcement is tightening.
