She said, everyone was tired and fed up- they were forced to dance in high heels for 7- 8 hours a day.

Sorry girl nobody forced you to do it, you and the others chose to flash your bodies for money.

Not forced, but apparently promised to be paid...

Looks like there will also be a shortage of tea at the station this month as well.  ????

Employment office won't do much.

Labour dept. might. But they might need an employment contract?

He could not pay the women because he had to pay..........

Dare I suggest that if dancing in high heels is onerous that they take them off then they will be totally naked.....

sounds like he fully intended not to pay them with this type of salary... however most of these salaries are linked to ridiculous drink quotas so with no customers they could never get the 1200 and their salary would revert to below the thai minimum wage this is the game most of these immoral gogo managers play with the girls..

 

sad indeed to see immoral gogo managers do that with such moral girls

The Facebook page for the bar, as well as at the premises on Walking Street itself have signs advertising the business as being for sale, notes Thaivisa.

My guess is that the sale price just hit rock bottom. 

Better to give the man 3 days to pay the girls. If not can do, deport him and let the girls run the business.

[BestB]

Laugh all you want but just shows how tough times are at the moment with no customers.

 

at 1000 per day, these are the so called agency girls and their 1000 depends and tied in with how many drinks they sell per day or bar fines .

The only ones who can investigate it do anything is labor office and it can take 3-12 months with no guaranteed results

For 1,200 baht a day I'll employ a couple of them for a week, and they won't have to dance in high heels ????

1,200 a day.  Something smells fishy.  

Does not sound that fishy.... 17,000ish baht commission / month + 15,000ish base.

[OneMoreFarang]

I check the pictures and this is definitely fake news. They don't have any numbers attached to them so they can't be dancers in a bar. ????

The girls forgot the brown envelope who is needed to get help from Pattaya BIB's. Or maybe the GO-GO owner have delivered one already?

Not sure but I think one of the owners was a Korean and another maybe Chinese.

Gift told the cops and media that staff were paid about 1,200 baht a day and 60-70 people had not been remunerated.

Well as a payment it seems to me very high!
Could be? How much revenue can a gogo bar have?
It would be time for me to start a new job!????

Fake news they never actually dance do they, unless things have changed they shuffle about for 30 mins then sit down with their phones again, it's a hard life ????

You forgot begging ladydrinks and tip from customers who give them big tip if they find the right moron. When it's closing time the thai boyfriend comes to pick her up so she can escape the moron who already spent a month salary on her. Welcome to Walking street.
