Nonsense I'm bukaho right now and baht buses running freely.
The solid wall to wall of tourists on walking street every night is a good indicator of overall numbers.
I moved here from jomtien because of waiting 30 mins to get a seat on a baht bus to Pattaya dozens of maxed out buses not even bothering to stop

No you can't.  There are the usual restrictions.  Have you ever been to Pattaya? 

Huh? I'm in Pattaya now and have been for 2 months while I wait for my tenants lease to expire in bangkok. If you are here now about we meet up in an hour or so!

@ the manic

Restrictions in Pattaya mean nothing. I'm surrounded here by 7/11 and buy whenever I feel like it, including 4am!

Bangkok on the other hand is strict.

I'm guessing you never attempted to buy outside of advertised hours so how would you know?

Jomtien Is the same as Pattaya. Around the clock service. Get off your lazy ass and go buy a beer after 2pm and report back.

Or come meet me and I will walk you into any 7/11. I'm in soi Buakhao now

Totally true! What these brain-dead idiots fail to understand is that they are killing the tourist industry on which Thailand so heavily relies. I know heaps of Brits and Aussies that used to head to Thailand for their annual holiday every year for decades. Thailand may have nice beaches, cheap beer (well, at least in 7-11, lol), and a few girls with hot bods, but so does Vietnam, and that is where most of them now go every year. The problem with 'shooting yourself in the foot' is that there's a real danger of 'blowing your toes off'. Then, of course, there's the incredible 'suicide rate'. Thailand must have the most creative 'suicides' in the world. I mean, diving to the bottom of the sea, tying yourself up, and then slitting your own throat must rate as one of the most creative 'suicides' ever! Tourists are simply not welcome, but their wallets are. The government will soon issue a new rule stating that all planes carrying tourists into Thai airspace must instruct their passengers to throw their purses and wallets out of the plane, then just keep on flying. Thailand doesn't deserve a tourist industry.

Outstanding. Even if the dude was a drunken bum it's not OK to smash him in the face

That's an unfair and sweeping statement. I started the thread by stating about a friend who had returned from there and gave his assessment on the place and he is well travelled around Asia.
We have heard from guys who have lived there for substantial amounts of time and some who have Filipina wives. You cannot say they are all wrong just because their experiences and knowledge differs from yours.

has to be more to this.  i am guessing the bin was padded and thats were the problem started.

Is no one going to ask how the 14 year old girl came to be working there?

Voluntary, Slave Trade, Indebted Family, lots of possibilities not being addressed.

I would think there are thousands of underage girls in the sex trade and not trafficked. I remember when when I was 14, I was intimidated by sexual aggression of 14 year old girls in the West. They most definitely mature a lot faster than guys

Justin Bieber ....gets my vote...............

Just heard they are all up and down Buakhao.  LOL

I just caught several today however to be fair they do cause traffic chaos, why? Because tourists and hookers flag them down every 20 meters. On.. Off.. On.. Off.. Some designated stops would fix that problem, perhaps every 500 meters or so.

Whereas in other parts of the country, where crime is also growing, the Thais I speak to (not drug addicts, or people with loans on houses, cars, MCs, wide screen TVs or home karaokes) tell me it's because:
 
 "Everyone no have money now"

There is good reason why the check bin is always turned away from you.

Do the airports run 24/7 in Thailand ? I know they don't in the UK.

So; it takes eight brave men of the Crime Suppression Squad to detain this evil woman and 3,500 soldiers to search a Temple.   Busy day yesterday for 'Law Enforcers' eh !

They hope to contact his relatives. Very respectful in allowing the media to publicly reveal his name before any relatives have been notified. Classy move!

What about all the farang that married hookers. These are counterfeit wives, will they be seized?

Like her or not her government was more accepting of foreigners than the junta. As a foreigner my interests come first. since the junta took power the anti-foreigner sentiment has only gone up. Truth is the thaksin party is more accepting of foreigners than other yellow shirts for example

This regulatory nonsense is causing me a great deal of trouble.  Irritable bowel syndrome, arthritic knees and two disintegrating discs in my back make my life hell without painkillers like Tramadol.  I find it hard to believe that keeping a few teenagers from getting high  is any excuse for interfering with the supply of medication to people like us.  What was a 5 minute trip to the chemist every couple of months has turned into hours of waiting to see a doctor and repeat my symptoms every week to live a normal life. 
 
GGGGRRRRRR

Bangkok next and make the fines appropriate,!
