South is not really a tourists location. Exactly, someone obviously has upset a general or top cop, not enough brown envelopes, if they were serious, target Bangkok, Pattaya, Phuket etc etc, and Thailand would be dead, no tourists, lets face it, most are here for the sleaze and sex, Thailand is not really a tropical paradise as its made out to be, families come and are so disappointed, yeh a few fun parks, zoos and temples, then what, bars and whores, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lacessit Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 It's fairly well known in Chiang Mai one of the biggest karaoke bars here ( with options ) is owned by a very senior local policeman. Of course, Chiang Mai is of no account to the Bangkok elite ( smog crisis, anyone? ) so out of sight, out of mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natway09 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 I agree John,,,, underage prostitution should be their first priority but the Thais guys like em so going to be difficult. The brown envelopes remain untraceable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brewsterbudgen Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 But if they crackdown too much there wont be any hookers for the sexpats and tourists .There will be plenty of Thai girls. Foreign sexworkers can be found but tend to service locals and not tourists.Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brewsterbudgen Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Why should anyone want to stop prostitution? What people do with their own bodies is their own business, as long as no one is being forced to do anything against their will, and of course no under age sex. They don't want to stop prostitution. They are trying to stop trafficking and underage providers.Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilsonandson Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 If by bone tests they mean MRI tests, these only tell you bone growth and not chronological age. There does not appear to be a test to reveal age that is accurate.Are you sure? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Grumpy Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 16 hours ago, webfact said: The investigation found that the bar allowed customers to take the Lao sex workers out for sex services at a rate of Bt1,500 per hour or Bt3,000 per night. Bt750-Bt800 of this went to the bar’s coffers while the women had to wait until the end of the month to get their share. The latest arrests followed a March 21 raid on a karaoke shop in Nong Khai’s Chiang Khan district that stemmed from a tip-off by the same NGO. That raid rescued 10 Laos women, one of whom told Thai authorities they used to work at the karaoke shop in Sungai Kolok, triggering an investigation that led to Monday’s raid. Officials said the investigation has turned to identifying the gang behind the trafficking of Laos women into prostitution in the two bars. So they were all willing prostitutes? It sounds like cleaning out the foreigners for taking business off the locals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The foreigners that visit are from Malaysia as Narathiwat province’s Sungai Kolok district sits right on the Thai-Malaysia border. As for western tourists very few visit this province although I did back in 1999 while riding my bicycle through the deep south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just knew my posts on other threads would provoke you into an over-the-top response. Sweaty yes. That can't be helped in this climate without aircon. Stinky? I deny this indignantly. I use deodorant. Drunken? Only on weekends, mildly. Obese? I prefer slightly overweight. Watch out for the Lanna people. My GF is one of them. You really do not want to mess with her, 42 kg of high explosive. And this is coming from a person who prefers the environs of Bangkok? Think of Thailand as a bathtub. Bangkok is the plughole where all the rivers drain to the sea waiting 1 metre below you. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kohkah Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Isn't it interesting, while Thailand is on war against sex trafficking. A quite large number of Thai woman travel to South Korea, Japan, Singapore and other places for working in the sex business. Sending back money for the family, and the men of the family spending the money in karaoke bars with Laotian woman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
