Yes unfortunately the PAttaya beach is becomming month after month a permanent residence for a bunch of junkies, homeless, drunkards and others skanks. It's a disgusting show every day and night and of course all these nice people urinate and poo on the beach. And now come the time of the insecurity, which is a very big issue for the destination because the relative absence of deliquency is one of the last advantage of the country for a tourist, I hope the authorities will finally take a serious look at this problem rather than harassing the poors girls who try to do few bahts working here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there would be only one robber, but an armed one, you would complain too, that it´s unfair. But that´s how a robbery works: be more, stronger or better armed as your victim.

sirineou Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 No value judgment, just personal observation and opinion Was in Pattaya once about 15 years ago, was not very impressed. never went there again and never will. The beach was dirty and unimpressive, there were a lot of bars , some street performers. , on walking street. I remember shops for tourists with Indians trying to sell me a suit and rolex watches. Not my scene Don't know what it is like now I can see how something like that could happen there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scot123 Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 (edited) Well this is what happens when you beat up tourists you only get a 500baht fine and a wai. The further the economy suffers through the lack of spending tourists the more this will occur. I was shocked not to read "more to this story" or "he must have done something wrong" or the one I really like "I've lived here for 20 years and never happened to me" yep where are use?

bizboi Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Surely no Kuwaiti would go to Pattaya I MEAN….what would he be there for? Drinking and whoring are illegal in kuwait and there are no casinos like the ones Kuwaitis like frequent when they go the West to buy houses!!!

There are certain nearby countries where it is the norm to do your toilet requirements anywhere handy, even in the middle of the street, and guess what, people from these countries are swarming to Pattaya right now, where amazingly, they believe themselves to be the superior race !!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
