webfact Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 "Pretty Caddies" - they are not there for the 19th hole, says Thai Media Picture: Daily News Daily News reported that the Department of Employment and the Department of Skill Development went to four Bangkok golf courses to investigate claims that foreign women were taking Thai jobs as caddies. They found none - but what they did locate was a section of the caddie workforce known as "Pretty Caddies". These were all young, tall, charming, good conversationalists even university educated - definitely not a bit of "rough". They would know their pars from their bogeys and advise on club selection and grip. "Eagle-eyed" golfers are prepared to pay 2,000-5000 baht for a round with these babes. But it certainly ended at the 18th - they were not there for 19th hole action, golfers told Daily News. President of the Department of Skill Development said that suchThais brought skills to the golf course that foreigners couldn't match. He was happy that no foreigners were taking Thai jobs - but 200 other golf courses would need to be checked too after complaints came in to the government. Golfers privately told the media that there were foreigners working at the courses and they were often very good and could speak Thai well. They were from Vietnam, Cambodia, Burma and Laos. But all the "Pretty Caddies" were definitely Thai. Source: Daily News -- © Copyright Thai Visa News 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post colinneil Posted May 17, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted May 17, 2018 What is golf? Golf is a game were men bash a little ball around for 18 holes, then they hope to get a pretty young thing play with their balls at the 19th hole. 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bkk6060 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 They usually make 300 to 350 b from the course plus the "normal" tip is 300 b. That is for about 4 to 5 hours work. But I know some of these girls will wait for the young Koreans or Japanese golfers. Some have told me these guys tip 1000 b no problem. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 19th is the bar, always has been and always will be. I played golf for years in Australia, but now living in Thailand, Ive found it more enjoyable to have a caddie. We pay for some lovely pretty caddies, I can assure you, they certainly know their stuff. There is never any inclination that their services go beyond the golf course. For Thai Media to suggest that the 19th is anything but what it is, cheapens and defames these talented women and their choice of profession. 3 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oziex1 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 A country with such a nationalistc culture, unfortunately doesnt apply to the job market. They whine and howel about illegals working in their country but still they come and are no doubt welomed by those ready to pay low wages. Oh well i suppose this will take immigration officers a while to check all the golf courses. Playing a few rounds just to be sure all is in order. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played there a few times myself - very 'refreshing' to look at they are too. All over Thailand they have lovely caddies on all golf courses. It didnt matter how bad a shot I played, they always had a lovely smile as they took my club and cleaned it and put it back in the bag. One of the great benefits of playing golf in Thailand. You get a lovely looking caddy for about $20 and no matter how you play, the day has been very enjoyable. No funny business - ever - not once in nearly 4 years at many courses. With the wife also playing most days it is not on anyway. But even when alone it was always very clear - look and enjoy - but no touch. Some were prety useless as caddies, but they were all lovely . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Centrum Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 And I've heard that the caddies at some courses are happy to join you in the showers after your round. Never know who to believe in Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
