swissie Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Goes to prove that Pattaya (still) is fuelled by "Wine Woman and Song". The 3 pillars that Pattaya is built on. Take away 1 of those "pillars" and the 2 others will crumble simultainiously. No, it's not the Temples, nor the shopping, nor the clean beaches. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live out on the Darkside of Pattaya, for the past 2 or 3 weeks we've had the pickups with ear shattering loudspeakers from 9.00 am till late afternoon giving it the full Monty to vote for their choice of candidate, the local mom n pop shop said we could buy beer but not drink out front, that blows a big hole in your statement.

The powers that be also don't ban drink when any sort of election is on (including local ones). That'd be bordering on totalitarianism wouldn't it? Never mind, ronnie round brain.

You're going to the wrong places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are 1000's of towns all over the world that are having the same problem without tourists. The big difference is that most of the other places are worth visiting, not so Pattaya !! I don't know, but maybe the fact it's Thai "press" not Spanish or British or American might give you a hint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did not have an election for Mayor. They still vote for Chonburi provincial chief(pattaya) and provincial council members. Not saying it isn't a stupid ban though.
