Gaybutton Posted August 1, 2007 Posted August 1, 2007 I love the term "soft opening." A few people I know could give a whole new meaning to that . . . The following appears in the PATTAYA CITY NEWS: _____ Bali Hai Plaza Soft Opening There is a new shopping center which is currently in the process of opening located in the grounds of the Bali Hai Port at the South End of Pattaya Beach. It is called the Bali Hai Plaza and features 4 floors of high quality shops including Clothes Shops and restaurants. The man behind the Plaza is a well known figure in the South Pattaya area, Khun Suntorn who is also the chairman of the Walking Street Committee. At this soft opening of the Plaza was Khun Niran, the Mayor of Pattaya along with the former Superintendent of Pattaya Police Station, Police Colonel Somnook along with a host of other local dignitaries. Not much is known about this new Plaza as yet, however it will surely become a popular shopping option for those that visit the Port and who reside in the South Pattaya area. Quote
Bob Posted August 2, 2007 Posted August 2, 2007 I love the term "soft opening." Yep, a wonderful term. I presume it means they've been around the block a few times (or, as otherwise sometimes said, this surely ain't the maiden voyage on the gopher)? Quote
