And a graveyard for millions of US Dollars pre-paid by buyers who lost it all. Thanks to Israeli construction mafia (Kobi and friends) and Pattaya City Hall Mafia.

You must know these cockroaches well since you mention of one by his first name

Who issused the planning permission in the first place and why are they not being prosecuted ?

 

 

the mayor of Pattaya then, gave the green light to this mess, who happens to be the brother of the mayor of Pattaya now, both happen to be the sons of the biggest mafia  of Chonburi, who died a while ago. in short, the untouchables!

You know how China does things, they don't fool around.

agree!

everybody should stay put in their country and stop wanting to travel like bunch of maniacs until this virus, a direct result of this traveling craze, is in control or eradicated.

I wonder if all those so keen on lockdowns will be so enthusiastic when their taxes go up to pay for it.

I don't think there is a soul anywhere happy about the lockdowns. as far as taxes..of course they will be raised and people have to pay..but with what? crime will definitely be out of control soon if not already happening

Keep dreaming they will never be back to the same levels as before Thailand as become to expensive people are heading elsewhere . Tourists are not interested in the land of smiles anymore .

every emporium has its rise and fall. thai sex tourism had its heydays in 80s to 2000s and it just ended. this may or may not have much to do with attitudes towards the foreigners but cheap sex has become a thing of the past in almost any country now, not just in Pats. Maybe the whole industry is changing..who knows! beginning of the year, relatively attractive ones(not "dogs")on filipina dating sites  were asking $200 for a "st" or even per hour ..the unavoidable and dreaded question comes to mind.. "what's the world coming to!?"

Just hope that Pattaya uses that time to upgrade its flooding and sewerage problems yet alone solve the annual shortage of water.

Gives them plenty of time to fix all the problems there , to many to mention .

I also had the same dream last night...strange!

tourists themselves tossing rubbish, tourist vehicles spewing pollution into the air and filthy water from tourist operators discharging sewage out into the sea. 

 

This is now over at least for now and the beach vendors are getting happier. 

beach vendors wouldn't give a flying #uck about cleanliness if there are no farangs.. They rather walk through raw sewage as long as they make money

They said that Thai families were gleefully playing in the pristine waters.

Pattaya: Brazen daytime murder of motorcycle taxi rider - shot in the head after dropping off passenger

life seems to be getting back to normal in post-covid Pattaya!

Covid has sure given governments some identity issues now has it not. Then they play spin the personal views and skew what they can so the people believe it all and regurgitate it.  Just my sarcastic opinion.

totalitarianism will be the norm of the future governments

The foreigners they see are the noticeable foreigners. The ones wearing singlets, with prostitutes, tattoos, drunk in the mid-afternoon, body odor riding on the skytrain, talking loudly, arguing in the bank or the 7/11 because they are lost and confused, in a country they don't understand or care about.

you talking about me..

Over 90% of Thai people want a total ban on foreign arrivals

everybody should go back to their countries and stay in their countries. traveling should be banned too. otherwise certain viruses less tolerant than the covid-19 will wipe out the humankind in the near future..mark my words

He's an idiot dreamer if he thinks Pattaya is beautiful. It might be cleaner ( but never clean ) and quiet, but it's still the same badly designed, badly constructed and badly run <deleted> it's always been.

It was fun when it had decent night life but even that has gone.

so what's left?

there were some Thai tourists and foreign residents at the weekend but during the week it was lovely and quiet.

 

In the last 15-20 years of visits this was the most beautiful he had ever seen it.

 

Thon said that everything was shut down by 9pm. The lovely spacious sands were lapped by water that was "clear enough" and there was no plastic waste to be seen. 

 

There were clearly defined smoking areas and a swimming area cordoned off was being utilised by children mostly. 

 

The beach road footpath was wide and shady and well maintained. Most boats in the bay were moored. The views were sensational.

 

Bars, tour businesses and markets were shuttered and there were just a few hawkers - the Thai tourists had little to buy.

 

In the city itself there were noticeably fewer song thaews (baht buses) and motorcycle taxis, less noise from horns

then he woke up!

Foreign tourists that represented the backbone of the business were just not coming

that's a very pessimistic statement..Of course they will start to come as soon as it starts snowing in Pattaya!
