a1falang Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 (edited) I've noticed recently the Africans who hang around Sukhumvit soi 13 selling drugs or whatever they "offer" are increasingly aggressive. The other day, one actually called me a n****r (this is hilarious since I'm paler than Snow White) when I ignored his greeting while walking along Sukhumvit Road minding my own business. The next day, another one started following me yelling "HELLO, MY FRIEND, HOW ARE YOU? HELLO? HELLO?!" for about 20 metres until I glared at him and said "Don't talk to me." They are big and congregate in packs at narrower parts of the footpath, so I doubt I'm the only one who finds them intimidating and irritating. African prostitutes also often block your passage or grab your arm and walk with you when you have not shown the slightest interest. (At least the Thai ones stay off to the side.) What I don't get is how this is allowed mere metres from the police checkpoint in front of the Hyatt Hotel under construction? Presumably, they're paying the police off, so If I complained to the one of the police officers there about being hassled every time I go out, I'd be the one arrested for causing a public nuisance? Would one of the hotels like Sofitel have to make an official compliant that their guests complained about being harassed before something was done to get rid of them? (I'm amazed what the police will allow to tarnish Thailand's image as a tourist destination when Thailand is supposedly a face-conscious culture.)

MrPatrickThai Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Must be the way you dress, or look. They never hassle me. The dealers have police protection for a few months, then they arrest one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senechal Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 They've done a few sweeps to get rid of them, but they keep re-appearing. https://www.stickboybkk.com/news/80-africans-rounded-sukhumvit-swoop-21-arrested/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swissie Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Just quality tourists, trying to make an honest living in Thailand without work permit. The TAT is getting what they have asked for. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Weird Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 You're absolutely right, the entire lot of them are pain in the arse, including the disgusting, arm-grabbing, black prostitutes. What you're mistaken about, though, is it that there is not a police checkpoint there, it is a resting place for the BMA inspectors to play in their phones. They are not police and have no responsibility for, nor any interest in, doing the police's work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean the drug dealers or their whores never hassle you? Perhaps you should start dressing up a bit then the whores might have more interest in you, or dressing down if you'd prefer attention from the dealers!

If only they'd keep the pavement clear of drug dealers and prostitutes. The vendors were a soft target and added a nice street vibe, at least.

Thian Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Last week i was in the skytrain to Asok and there was a farang with an african hooker (very short pants with very fat legs). They started with the foreplay in the middle of the train while talking dirty very loud. My wife just looked the other way and so did most thai but it was right next to me and i found it disgusting. Deep kissing, touching/grabbing everywhere and so on... Disgusting people, both of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InMyShadow Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 They are there because it's dimly lit due to the construction of the Hyatt regency on the corner however when that 5 star hotel opens at the end of the year apparently. .. those Nigerians will be forced out to dimmer pastures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we can go see the doctor together afterwards and share the bill. After dark all the farang punters come in the bts with their catch of the day. It's funny to hear their conversations though, many are drunk and only want one thing while they're home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
