You wanna bet! They don't happen in the islands, they don't happen in Chiang Rai and Chiang Mai, they don't happen in Nakon Nowhere but they do happen almost daily in Pattaya.

Ahh, yes, The Holy City of Pattaya, fun, sun and fights by the sea!? Phuket is far better, one street of vice (Banglar rd) rather than many.

I've been blessed traveling to and staying at "world class resorts."  I have to chuckle, every time a Thai official refers to Pattaya as a "World Class Restore Destination."  One year staying in Jomtien Beach 10 years ago  ...was enough to see what was coming.  The cream rises to the top in Pattaya, no pun intended.

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.

 

I know what you are saying - but there are a lot of places suitable for families. My friends in UK are mostly the same - they think Pattaya is Thailand. Those who have stayed with us here in the far north have gone home with a different opinion.....

Listen up all foreigners. Lesson #1 - this is not your country. You are a guest. You can be gone in a few days. You can be in prison for many days. You have to be extra polite, extra good, extra positive behavior...this is not your country!!!! BTW, I am a foreigner in Thailand!

I hope the Thai government gets this message across to visitors. Next, I hope to see more presents of uniform police in the nightlife area. All they need to do is walk and be visible. This reminds all the people they are real and they are watching. It also gives the peaceful people assurance of a trouble free environment. It does not scare the good people to see police officers. Each bar needs a special emergency number that will get them immediate help...within minutes! Lastly, I would have a few non uniform police walking the area. Have them talking, listening, watching.

This cost money but every business in the area should be willing to pay a little something for this protection. Even 100b per business per night would go a long way for protection. In fact, maybe the business association should collect this fee and 'pay' for protection. they can pay the police or hire outside help...best to have some police.   

Why should the 'businesses' have to pay extra for protection? presumably the businesses are paying tax which partially employ the RTP. So why do the businesses have to cough up more for the RTP to do their work?

A new bunch of dorks in Pattaya made the headlines. Utterly stupid to travel to another country to fight with other tourists.
Some people just ain´t equipped with the gene "shame".

I have a next activity proposition for them to try before they go home. Why not try the all so popoular balcony jump.
Then we never have to see theese mindless monkeys nomore.

Not with the same frequency they don't, which I think you understood was the intent of my remarks!

 

There is a difference between frequency of reporting and frequency of incidents.

 

The "popular" news media is generally far more interested in sensations than it is in statistics.

 

They know what the "people" like.

You'd think guys could leave their negative "baggage" at home, and enjoy the cornucopia of Thai "offerings" (especially in Pat).   Did someone miss out on the last bargirl or pint available on walking street.... :shock1:

I was born and brought up in a seaside town in the UK in the summer the place was just like Pattaya (without the sex) nothing but trouble and fights between all the drunken tourists  who descend on the place ,nothing changes ,the locals very rarely are involved as they keep away from the nightlife  and live out their lives like always .

 

Blackpool or Southend?

Haven't been there for a while but that looks too narrow to be Walking Street.

Yes that is what i thought too. But it seems the police have ignored all the stalls that have been set up thus making the street appear narrow. But you can just see the Farenheite Gogo sign.

Pattaya it's quite the opposite of the rest of the country. No respectable Thai would want to live there other than those who want to make a bit of money. Its tourist attraction is people flocking there, particularly Chinese to see for themselves the most decadent sordid sex supermarket in the world.

 

According to another Thai news outlet 4.79 million Thai and 2.54 million Chinese tourists visited Pattaya in 2016.

 

What do you suppose the Thais go there for?

I worked on the railways back in UK, the lads at our depot in Blackpool, said it was full of Candyfloss & W an kers! lol

 

It is how I describe Pattaya to English people.......Blackpool with sex.

Pattaya has never been, isn't and never will be a world class resort.

 

Which is a shame, because it has all the ingredients.  Close to the capital with its huge airport, potentially beautiful beaches, beautiful weather, great islands nearby, pretty girls...

Things are getting out of control in the family resort, maybe time to limit the number of families entering the resort.

I used to see far worse in other countries, my own included. I never feel under threat walking around Pattaya late at night and I've lived here for 11 years.
