webfact Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 More trouble in Pattaya: Violent Walking Street brawl caught on camera video screenshot A video which shows a group of foreign men fighting on Pattaya’s Walking Street has been shared on Facebook. The shocking incident is believed to have taken place during the early hours of Sunday 11 February. During the 45 second clip, which will not do anything to help the image of the popular resort, as many as ten men can be seen punching and kicking one another as shocked onlookers watch on. A man in a yellow shirt can be seen punching and being punching by at least two other men. It is not known the reason the fight broke out or if anyone was charged for their involvement in the incident. The footage appears to have been recorded the same weekend another violent incident involving foreigners took place in Pattaya. On Friday, an Australian man died after being violently assaulted in a bar on Soi 6. Benjamin Matthew Robb, 43, suffered catastrophic injuries after being punched and kicked following a confrontation with American Jose Manuel Polanco. Witnesses said Polanco stomped on Robb’s head “10-15 times”. The Australian was taken to Pattaya Memorial Hospital where later died. Polanco, who is in custody after handing himself into police, has been charged with physical assault leading to death. Polanco said he acted in self defence after intervening when Robb was being aggressive towards a waitress, picking her up by his neck until her feet were in the air. -- © Copyright Thai Visa News 2018-02-13 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think incidents like this, and the poor Aussie guy will do just that. Add the in-your-face sex, in-the-open porn and sex toys for sale and you have a natural family repellent. I know lots of people back home that won't bring their families to Thailand. It's a shame really, because a family with kids probably outspends the guys in these incidents by a wide margin. Better hotels, days on the town shopping instead of shacked up nursing a hangover, more and better meals, souvenirs for the kids- all of them unsold because of Thailand's reputation. True, they may sell more beer and bar fines... But that's not how you maintain a popular resort, much less a world class resort. 8 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But TAT does. They're propping it up as a family holiday destination. But they have a looooong way to go. Even longer today than 2 days ago. Which means it's going in the wrong direction.

Popular Post glasswort Posted February 13, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted February 13, 2018 Typical poor reporting. The live action does not live up to the headline.
