Interesting article in the Bangkok Post from the new acting police chief that he wants all prostitution completely gone in Pattaya.
I think he is referring to street walkers.
The article seems to focus on cleaning up the beach chair/vendor issues and the disproportionate number of ladyboy prostitutes working on the streets rather than a bar environment.

Why do 90% of the responses assume this report is even true? Has it appeared in reasonably reputable news source - either national or local? I don't see anything about this in The Nation, BKK Post, Khaosod, any other local news outlet, etc. The only place I see this information repeated is on discussion forums regurgitating the Chiang Mai City News article.
This would be pretty big news if true, yet nothing about it anywhere else? Just the no alcohol after midnight bit would effect thousands of establishments throughout the entire Kingdom, which one would think would be worthy of at least a blurb in one of the national papers.
So why the assumption by so many that this is actually true? Is there any "immediate" enforcement of this? Has any bar owner been told this is now going into effect? Do we have ANY other evidence other than this article in the Chiang Mai City News that these news policies/laws are going to happen?

It's not. It's not even in effect in Chiang Mai.
