Twenty years ago there was a Thai guy at the Beach Road end of WS who used to sell cigarettes with a wrap of yabaa without telling the purchaser the yabaa was in there. Twenty yards further on the police would pick the purchaser up. This begs two questions; 

 

1. Why buy cigarettes off some guy on the street?

2. Why are human beings stupid?

....and the moral of the story is.....have a copy of your passport and visa page to hand?

 

And don't voluntarily let the cops search your apartment. 105 grams of weed for 2500 baht. Yeah right...

Acting suspiciously ???? I wonder what attracted the attention of the RTP ???

My guess it was the tip-off from the Thai dude he bought the dope from.....

The amount found would not raise an eyebrow in his home country. Perhaps he was unaware of the law in Thailand ?

Walked beach road many times, never got offered any drugs?... Maybe because I look respectable? 

Or boring:)

Yes I find that surprising. I walk down the Beach Rd a bit and one gets offered all manner of things. Personally I hardly have the backpacker look!

There was a story Exactly like this, a year or so ago, is this the same story, or just a coincidence?

Boring, fair enough. But I can reiterate: I am 66 and I remember only one instance where I have been offered drugs; it was in 1980, weed, Miami while staying in a dodgy hotel, en route to a long backpacking tour to Latin America. Illegal drugs have never been part of my world, maybe that makes a "visible" difference.

But this thread is from 1 year ago.   Pattaya has now been completely cleaned up and is now a 5 star family resort so must be squeaky clean of drug sellors now surely ?
