Pattaya has the basic elements to become the Neo Pattaya, being dreamt of, and all it needs is serious efforts to change many things in Pattya and then its image will change. Why on hearth do you want to put a lot of efforts (And money) to change what Pattaya was the best in the world for (An adult entertainment playground) ? There are not already enough boring family oriented sea side resorts ? They have a well better environment and they are very far from being saturated with people yet (Hua Hin, Koh Samui...) Why all this war to make disapear one of the last places on earth for adult fun and entertainment ? You guys, with your greedy real estate mates. religions masters and other hypocrits excuses you are very anonying to say the least 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HiSoLowSoNoSo Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 If they want to change the reputation the city got worldwide, something more than neo is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this time I always went to Koh Samui. And when I came back some might have thought that I now have AIDS (but I was so scared that I never used an entertainer). To say that you go to Pattaya might even by still a problem these days. When people ask me where I live in Thailand I always say Chonburi. One day I could not avoid that an old friend visited me here in Pattaya. It was his first visit to Thailand. He said - my goodness you live in a brothel. I have to admit that I was ashamed at that moment. After this I never allowed old friends to visit me here again. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heng Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 They could just keep doing what they are already doing but improving the quality if they want locals to vacation here. Perhaps a separate entertainment district not completely staffed by folks from Isan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It astonishes me that expats living here should give a toss about what their friends in their home country think about their lifestyle here. I never have, and I am quite sure most of them are envious. I've never understood people who need to accumulate possessions to impress their friends and neighbors, or who need their approval.

sandyf Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 1 hour ago, Spellforce said: "Neo" is only for marketing. That's not really "new" that seedy bars are disappearing near beach road for instance. First area was soi 2 and now that's the turn for soi 7 & 8. Nowadays seedy bars have already moved near soi Bukao and with the years they will move even further to the East... With the years the bright side of Pattaya will be emptied of this kind of bars. The first major move was when they bulldozed from the showbar Tokyo 21 through to Beach Road and built Central. My mate had a bar other side of the wall on Soi 9 next to the police Station, he moved to a new complex on 2nd road and then that got flattened, moved to Chok Chai and washed cars. Wind of change has been blowing for a long time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wind of change has been blowing for a long time. Yes it's been going that way for years. I used to visit Pattaya before central or third road was built up.You could walk beach road early morning and only Thai vendors setting up for the day and a very few farangs would be about.Jomtien was very pleasant.It didn't seem to wake up until lunchtime.Last time I visited it was a rolling traffic jam more expensive than ever and heaving with people.But that's progress. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong......I love Pattaya (and a lot of the people who work there)..... my comment is meant to illustrate the absurdity of it being somewhere that aspires to attract high end tourists.........as a long term (very long term) aim fine.....but if that is the objective you have to have all the plans in place to achieve it....not jump the gun and just stick Neo in front of its name. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DogNo1 Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Neo Massage Price. As I was walking through Gaysorn the other day, I noticed that a salon there was charging 1,500 for their neck, shoulder and body massage. Does anybody really pay these prices?
