Meaowma57 Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Miami, Singapore and Dubai all have a lively sex scene, lots of drinking holes and people partying till early hours - there is no way Pattaya should be allowed to sink that low. NEVER. Whatever is the Mayor thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madeline Thompson Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 I've heard this before - it's the last thing Thailand needs. There's absolutely no money available for that kind of dream-making. Is anybody building a new 'Dubai' at sea level anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timwin Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 If they setup special offshore ownership and taxation laws then it could be doable. If you go to any offshore company formation site, Thailand is not there. Belize, Singapore, Cyprus, Hong Kong are there. But Thai officials probably are too proud to implement those needed changes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterphuket Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 7 hours ago, wasabi said: Yes they should improve it and I do enjoy visiting Pattaya, but wanting it to become a world class city will not make it so. Firstly taking Miami for example -- it has a rich history and natural resources you can't just will Pattaya to have. In addition to this favorable tax laws in Florida attract a number of businesses. Same is true in their own ways for Dubai and Singapore. They each offer qualities built over time that can't be injected into Pattaya's economy because they want it to be so. They want to get rid of the Red Light districts, be my guest I hope they can improve it, but I can see very little to replace it that will ever make it a hot destination. But I'm sure the hordes of flag waving Chinese tour buses will come back ready to spend 200 THB a day. The general trend be it bringing back tourists or improving the economy seems to be who can cook up the most outlandish projection with no accountability or possibility those projections will be reached. In the end these wishful thinking projections hurt more than help. It's great to dream but setting realistic goals would be better. You'll try to explain him????? ????????

Caldera Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Miami, Singapore and Dubai are quite different from one another (I've visited all three). Which one is it gonna be? Pattaya is a different kettle of fish altogether. Personally, I have my doubts as far as any rebranding strategies are concerned - this has been tried and has FAILED before! To me, announcements such as this one look more like desperation than anything else. I'm even sympathetic, I'd be desperate at this point myself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dogmatix Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Pattaya is also known as a hub of criminal activities with both Thai and foreign mafia well represented. The mayor's distinguished father, who was mayor before him, was in fact convicted of murder and fraud. Although this was not mentioned, it is something that anyone seeking to set up non-tourism related business there would do well to bear in mind. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truth Will Set You Free Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 The only way Pattaya will become like any of the mention places, you would have to bulldoze the entire coastline and start from scratch. Then you would have to teach and train everyone about upkeep and cleanliness. So you must be planning a water down version....???????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
