The banks will manage to leverage this pandemic somehow, someway. The government can't afford them to fail. 

To "geriatrickid" - very well spoken points. Thanks for sharing an alternative view. 

Thanks for sharing the memory lane video. I was but a baby back then. Pattaya has come along way. Can only imagine what the next 30 years will bring. 

This is a priceless discussion. I'm in tears...........................

Hello Toenail,

You're review of the situation is "spot" on. Change is hard for environments such as Pattaya. Most sex cities don't transition successfully to family fun places (Too much money changing hands).

Hello Jimmyyy,

Could your please share on the board or privately Mr Dream's contact info.

Great Vegas point as that's exactly what happen and the politicians haven't looked talked family values since.

Here is a free tip for Thailand. In Las Vegas , Nevada, the city " leaders" decided they did not want the reputation for the city to be sin and gambling. They then tried to redo all publicity to push for family tourism. Revenues fell WAY off, they came to their senses, and the new promotion became" what goes on in Vegas stays in Vegas". Thailand can certainly do whatever it wants, but if it kills off the sex trade just be sure to have regular jobs for all the girls from Issan...... This kind of government social engineering is made all the more funny by the fact that 80 to 90 percent of the sex trade is for the benefit of and used by Thai men. But I suppose that segment will not be going away.

On a side note, if they really do want family tourism, the government is going to have to do something about the endless scams. Those do not go well with families. Kids watching their dad get beaten up by jet ski thugs could have a detrimental effect on future families visiting......

For all TG's failings, their webpage is a million % better than EVA's...

I have to disagree with the ease of their webpage in comparison with Eva. Eva's page is very user friendly. Thai and China Airlines have very difficult pages to navigate.
