This has to be a tongue in cheek article surely? He is either taking the piss, or totally deranged.

This is an advert .… right?

[KittenKong]

I'm afraid that Mr Cheeseman lost me when he mentioned the "well-behaved Chinese and Indian tourists that the Thais like".

[dotpoom]

Is this information useful to people who live in the....."now"?

[Regyai]

Or

 

Ever more empty/unfinished condos

 

On top of ever more empty/ unfinished condos

 

(Ps never trust an expat who cant pronounce the place where he lives?).

They are much better behaved than the trashy farangs living or visiting Pattaya. They are not pedophiles, sexpats, criminals or conmen.

Liked the off camera sounds of condo reconstruction. Added a touch of realism about condo living, Maybe not so good on a promo video.

[Curmudgeon1]

Dan lives up to the realestate agent stereotype. All sizzle no steak?

Only to others selling real estate... after all the salesman mantra. 

     "Something to tell, something to sell. " right beside "a sucker born every minute".

Yeah, like those informercials you see after midnight on tv.

Alas, I think he's serious, judging by the real estate agency mini-ad in the bottom right-hand corner.

Neither am I, yet here I am.

 

In many ways they are all similar. However I rarely see four trashy farang tourists sharing one hotel room, one glass of beer and one hooker. And I also rarely see trashy farang tourists spitting all over the place, and barging past queues.

 

Maybe I just dont get out enough.

Thais hate Indians and just tolerate China

This guy lives in his own world or someone was forcing him to read the cards.

You forgot two more things.

The most disgusting people to be near in a restaurant.

Also taking a shit on beach road.

Posters may be interested to know that Mr Cheeseman is the co-founder and director of Choice Group Asia Media Group, which itself owns various media companies like Pattaya Channel TV, Inspire Digital Media and .... ThaiVisa.

 

It should be fairly obvious to anyone who looks at any local media in Pattaya that the property industry is a major advertiser across the board, so it's not surprising that he should be interested in property-related events and trends.

Judging by the new law a day policy a nuns retreat springs to mind.

Or the Chinese father letting his kid s**t on the footpath outside a popular mall.......quality indeed.

[Penefattore]

I came here ten years ago for the pussy.

Now I am just staying for the tax exemption on foreign income.

 

This just to show how much the place has gone downhill 

[TechnikaIII]

The sex workers will be available through specially designed vending machines in the corridors of the hotels. They can be had pay-for-play when required or added as an extra through Booking.con ... ( not ".com") 

[phantomfiddler]

I see Pattaya resembling Bombay or Calcutta, with property prices bombing and civilized tourists staying away in droves

[Havrum]

This is one of the most hilarious videos I've ever seen anywhere.

[Golden Triangle]

There are so many replies on this thread that I could respond to as I fully understand what each and every one means, when I first moved here I had no option ( due to to the feed provided by the landlord) but to watch the crap churned out by a particular channel - the one with an hour of infomercials thinly disguised as news.

 

Now after 6 years and an Android box and an ISP & a reasonable cable provider I'm more than happy.

[smudger1951]

I was just thinking yesterday, I first came here ten years ago. It was just before Central Festival Shopping Mall opened. I'm struggling to think of other major changes, so in ten years ? ? the condo building to saturation levels will continue-like the flooding.

Get in now... if the dream is to be achieved they are going to need to knock most of them down , or build a new town somewhere else north of here and call that Pattaya. Knocking the current one down or renaming it. I live here, out of town, and think 90%of the place is a dump in need of bulldozing.

 

Yes a rather unsubtle attempt to get people to buy property here, surely I need a 27sqm rat-hole in the Waterfront!
