Yes the conviction has changed for the benefit of Trump https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ckvvlv3lewxo

After conviction the race is mixed but Trump still ahead in swing states and well ahead in 3 party RFK jr race.https://www.forbes.com/sites/saradorn/2024/06/03/biden-vs-trump-2024-election-polls-biden-takes-slight-lead-in-some-polls-after-trumps-conviction/

Trump could be in trouble. If in prison. If they have gone this far...https://www.yahoo.com/news/democrats-look-strip-secret-protection-134439473.html

No you or they about have that backwards : 2019 , 2 trillion baht/40 million foreigners=50,000 baht/foreigner. 2023, 1.3 trillion/28 million foreigners=46,428 * Best to do two searches for each year : 1) total foreign revenue. 2) total foreign visitors

And they get the less discerning tourists from the "improvements". For example this endless sh*tshow along the beach. Instead of a nice promenade that would attract quality visitors, this glorified road/"promenade" and beach side parking has driven them off and all they can get now are mostly Thais and these low class cigarette smoking foreigners. With the downhill change in foreign tourism from demographics from quality to quantity. The tourist in 2023 spends much less than the 2019 tourist.

Something like that. And am assuming you are not located here, and have little if any contact with the local males here. As evidenced by your naive comments: It's bad enough just being around and putting up with these local males in every day situations. But to be aggressive and waving arms in their face ?????. Let me give you a clue Lou. Don't look at them , don't talk to them and don't listen to them

You need to have a look at the video I referenced: Again, the bills were paid up and he was standing out in front of the bar alone. Again (see video ) at this point he could have walked away. Instead he walked up into the bar continuing his aggression and challenges the security guard.This then resulted in all piling out into the street fighting. No- security is not expected to "wave him away" As I said before... The brit asked for a fight. And as I also said before the kick was criminal act

Yes indeed pay as you go.Understood. And my post states Another way ( the fight) could have been avoided

Very well said. And your nephews point of view would apply to most quality Western visitors. They ain't coming back. This is why the city is going after the "Stans" Central Asians who they figure might be oblivious/ put up with the infrastructure from Hell.

Another way all this could have avoided , the fight out front that is From the video, after the pushing in the bar and bills paid up. White shirt who was acting very aggressive In the bar is standing out front alone. At this point he could have walked away, end of story. But instead he returned to inside bar continuing his aggression. So he asked for the fight with security for sure. Of course no excuse for the kick. But he asked for the fight. A jerk for sure.

Indeed: And the following numbers support this drastic quantity over quality in Thai foreign tourism. Comparing 2019 and 2023. I double checked the math from the search numbers. On average each foreign visitor in 2019 spent 10 times more than the visitor in 2023: 2019, 2 trillion baht/40 million tourists. And in 2023, 140 billion baht/28 million tourists

What's wrong with this picture

Yes my problem is I don't like jerks. And I dont have anything to say to naive thai apologists who don't see a problem with "these" so called security jerks. Adios

Here is context. Actually I have problems with all the jerks In Pattaya, foreign and locals . About 80% of locals and 40% of foreigners

Never go in place where you have to walk a gauntlet by a sh*tload of these jerks.

Yes the number of tourists has increased but total revenue is about 3/4 of pre covid revenue

You won't see quality tourism in Pattaya at large for many good reasons. They staycation in upscale enclaves/5 stars in areas like wongamat. Not sure if that's going to be enough to float the boat here or not for all the development?

This video shows them leaving the bar after altercation intact

What's going to be problematic for the democrats are the the minorities who identify with being persecuted by the justice system when they vote for Trump. The backfire is just another reason Trump is gaining the minority vote

This the plan. "These people" are just running rough shod on what was a quaint seaside town. Massive drain pipes left over from the Colorado River aquaduct, concrete and palms, parking lot, contract/kickbacks sh*tshow.

Yes , amazing how some can be so oblivious to this fact. Some kind of denial maybe.

Somebody has to do it. Link from 2011 !! https://www.newageislam.com/islam-west/soeren-kern/growth-islamistan-europe-means-no-go-zones-non-muslims/d/5320

It's already wrong Hoss . So all these no go Muslim neighborhoods in Europe. You dont have a problem with??? And don't have a problem with the invasion at the US Southern border?? Strange attitude. The Far Right now has the chore of straighting this sh*tshow out. More power to them: Round them up, Put them on a boat back to bum f*** Egypt.

About F****** Time

Not so safe at 0200. Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. And just what did city hall expect: Beach Rd parking, All these happy sh*t events along that glorified Rd/promenade. They wanted more Thais in Pattaya to make up for losing quality high spending tourism. Well they are going to lose more and more . Be careful what you ask for- you might get it
