Catch a falang with prostitution, death penalty. just like drugs. fast forward ...... tourist numbers drop from 35 million (99.999% guys) to 8 backpackers. I'm the only one who comes to Thailand for clean air, cool days, healthy food, and safe roads Families do come on holiday with their children to simply enjoy Thailand. Between now and next year I have 5 friends coming with wife and kids, they all stay in Phuket resorts though which annoys me as it is a long drive to visit them for the weekend. I know many expats the same, friends and family coming for holidays. Edited April 6, 2022 by Ralf001 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orinoco Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 No prostitutes over Songkrain. wot !!!!!!!!! Are the cops just going to conduct mass self abuse instead 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natway09 Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 They are just so far out of touch it hurts. The annoying thing is that the emphasis for Songkran that they should have cracked by now is to make the roads safe is way beyond them even or they do not care because there is no Baht in it for them 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post spidermike007 Posted April 6, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 6, 2022 The goofball brigade stays up all night dreaming of ways to keep Thailand safe. Saying this is like saying no somtam, or no Tom yum on Songkran. Each passing day is an exercise in ridiculousness for these guys. It would appear they have no idea whatsoever about how silly they appear to the nation. I have rarely met a Thai who holds them in high regard. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as your friends highlight, families don't really go to Pattaya, if doing any research. Patts is geared toward sexpats & sex tourist which is fine, keeps them away from where I live. Bkk weekenders, simply because it's close and Hua Hin is another hour of driving away. Though many pop into Bang Saen instead of patts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walker88 Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 There is reality, and then there is what officials claim is reality. The latter seems to satisfy many in a population where 'face' is important. Yes, constructed realities exist in most countries and cultures, but in my experience it is taken to another level in lands and cultures where face is so critical. Thailand is known around the world for its bargirls and pay-for-play industry, and for many people, this is likely embarrassing. They can pretend tourists come to visit Wat Arun, but on any given day there's 50 times the number of tourists in Nana Plaza than at Wat Arun. That can be ignored if some authority figure provides an alternative reality. Thus, if cops state matter-of-factly that prostitution does not exist in Thailand, face is saved---despite everyone being fully aware of 'real reality'. And if a little prostitution slips by and must be recognized, well, that's foreigners, even though foreigners partaking in the game are a small percent of overall prostitution in the country. Thais can hold on to a need to feel pure, proper and pious. You know, I know, you know that I know, I know that you know, but if we both pretend all is at odds with reality, face is saved for both of us.

brewsterbudgen Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 19 hours ago, blazes said: If you are a "place of prostitution" you are, by definition, breaking the law, no? None of the places with girls available characterise themselves like that. Place like "soapies" are licensed to provide "bath services", and licensed gogo bars (both for farangs and Thais) are not supposed to allow prostitution on the premises. What happens in ST hotels, is not illegal, unless underage providers are used. What the government don't want is "promiscuous displays of prostitution" and streetwalkers.
