Thailand Lifts Afternoon Alcohol Ban for Six Months

Imagine Thailand had a rule that you couldn't buy drinks like juice or soda between 2 and 5 in the afternoon.

This made it hard for tourists and people who owned shops because it stopped them from serving people during normal hours.

Many people told the government this wasn't a good rule.

So, the government has decided to try taking away that rule for six months.

Starting in December, you can buy drinks again during those afternoon hours.

They will see if this works well for everyone.

Some places, like big hotels and airports, could always sell drinks, and they still can.

This is a test to see if letting people buy drinks in the afternoon is okay.
