Popular Post webfact Posted December 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 9, 2021 Picture: Snook The former "Lord of Soapy Massage" Chuwit Kamolwisit has said that the days of such prostitution in Thailand are over. He said that now anyone can "get a woman on the Line (application) if "they fancy a bit of fun". Chuwit - former politician, convicted felon, TV presenter - is always good value for his views. Sanook called him the "chao phor ang" - a kind of 'godfather of the bath'. So it was no wonder that Channel 3 turned to him for comments after it was revealed online yesterday that a soapy massage or "ab ob nuat" in the Pin Klao area of Bangkok was up for sale for 470 million baht. The five story, three building complex has 104 rooms and a coffee shop with 50 tables. It has all the permits and was being sold by an old man with no heirs. There has reportedly been some interest from one buyer back in August. Chuwit told Channel 3's morning show that it really wasn't about the massage business but about the value of the land - he called the 3 rai property as a "golden piece of real estate" on the Arun Amarin Road. He said the selling price was based on the square wah value of land there being 400,000 baht. He said that the future of massage parlors like this is highly doubtful, they are all closed right now. He doubted they would be profitable and banks would not lend money on them being so in the future. He said that the heyday of soapy massage in Thailand was over, the old days and the old timers like him were history. Nowadays it was all about real estate and building condos.

Popular Post HappyExpat57 Posted December 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 9, 2021 Yes, they're all shut down. Once Covid is a distant memory (and some day it will), they'll be right back. Soapies in one form or another been around a lot longer than any of us and will continue as long as there are pretty girls and horny guys with money. 16 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post petedk Posted December 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 9, 2021 I think he is right. The very wealthy Thais rent houses foe a night or a few hours and the girls are delivered to them. That is far more discreet. We see that almost daily here, The amount of money they earn must be tremendous as we see they come back from shopping with 4 or 5 clothes brand name shopping bags. Almost like a scene in "Pretty Woman". One of the regular girls often arrives in her Mercedes sports car. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Inala Posted December 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 9, 2021 (edited) Online is not the same as close physical contact for a bit of fun. Even when you bring a girl home from online, most won't give you a good soapie. I like to compartmentalise my fun. A soapy today, a <deleted> tomorrow, a foot massage the day after and so on. Sometimes I reverse the order just to mix it up. My mates feel the same as me. So he's wrong, fortunately.

JCauto Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 Coming on the heels of the news of the 470 million baht soapy palace for sale, I can deduce that he's looking to get back into the business rather than leaving it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the man say's plenty of online girls to come and scrub your back. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
