Does this mean that some army high-ups are shaking in their boots because their side gig may be in jeopardy?

No because they're Thai

Correct.

Many girls have not paid for the premium access so are limited to one message every 10 mins so will ask to move chat to line or whattsapp.

And my friend tells me it's better for sending locations, photos etc etc.

That's all well and good, but how about clamping down on the Thai criminals as well?

If you bothered to read the links from this thread you'd know that his was was raided because of complaints about the brasses abusing alcohol and drugs and robbing the daft customers.

A quick search of the web shows dozens of Thai escort sites. Why don't they have a purge?

Perhaps they haven't had complaints about customers being robbed!

I guess it's whack a mole. Shut one down, two more pop up. It's all part of the Thai experience for heavens sake. Ask my hero Boss Chuwit. It'd be like Irish coffee with no whiskey in it.

There is no comparison, those places do not categorically offer sexual services to the public.    The girls who work there may do after being taken off the premises...unless you know of any bars in those areas that do specify what sort of sexual experiences are available there?

Expand  

Can only assume you have never been.  Most of the places mentioned have rooms on the premises.

I'd guess that none of the bars in Nana Plaza, Cowboy, Patpong, etc. have rooms for the customers to bang the girls.

[Jiggo]

Obviously the Septic made too much and showed it off, without lining the right pockets as well.

How far might this Potemkin moral fiber extend?

 

Will Nana Plaza, Soi Cowboy, Walking Street and LK Metro be closed down? Will the dozens of Thai-owned Escort Services be shuttered and taken offline? Will "Soapies" be boarded up? Will massage shops begin offering only 'traditional' massage and no happy endings? Will high-ups and government officials be subject to arrest for taking on university students as mia nois?

 

Will the business laws be changed and put "owning a business geared toward prostitution" on the same list as diamond polishers, hairdressers or wood carvers---jobs prohibited to foreigners?

I guess this is a rhetorical question !?

Who is advertising ?

I could put "I like to suck a dogs lipstick" in my profile... does not mean TF is advertising beastiality.

All these small money are published.  But the big money and swindled isn't. Watch a big case on the 25th next week. 6 Thais will face there wrath for stealing over 100 million USD Chiang Mai pieces of <deleted> 

[JackGats]

A "big" online escort service for foreigners worthy of the name has never existed in Thailand that I know of. Just a few websites with a handful of mostly 10 year-old pics. Funny how the police here is regularly reported to crack down on "notorious" outfits that no one has ever heard of.

[Dogmatix]

Meanwhile there are hundreds of similar websites offering hookers in Thai but they don't harm the image of the Kingdom because foreigners can't read them. 

[Sigmund]

In which property were these people in Hua Hin ?

 

in one of those cramped overpriced farang run "pool-villa" deveioppments in Hin Lek Fai, near Black Mountain, Hua hin that seen a bargain for foreigners, look nice but full of construction and electrical flaws in building with  problems that show up hardly few years of use ?

 

Naturally the developpers will say it's not under warranty and make you shell out more money to repair their own construction negligences.

[Middle Aged Grouch]

Maybe somebody in a tight brown suit and dual set of golden wings-medals, did not get the right home delivery service ? Or the brown enveloppe was not send by speed post ?

 

On the whole it just shows that they plainly tolerate farangs in Thailand, nothing more.

 

No matter what some farangs may think, a farang is always nothing but a farang and at the same level like any other non-Thai. No matter how superior some westerners may think they are in Thailand.

 

If you are wandering or mongering all over Thailand, chances are that you obviously did not make it back in the west.  So chill, respect, keep low and enjoy. ????

I heard the master lease for the entire place was rented by a motorcycle club some time back, one of the clubs on the recently published list.

 

However it likely changed hands a long time ago as they moved on for one reason or another.

 

People were complaining about ourlaws mc stickers appearing all over the place at the time.

master lease held by the boiler room squad last I heard

They're happy to leave consenting adults alone, just don't shout about it from the rooftops like foreigners are wont to do. Plus the other 'considerations' that come with the territory.

Police say their website was used to allegedly facilitate in luring foreign victims into compromising situations with alcohol and drugs and the subsequent theft of their possessions.

That's nothing.

 

Just watched a documentary about San Francisco history.  From 1849 for about 65 years a criminal enterprise in the city would "Shanghai" people.  An estimated 100-150,000 people were victims...

 

They put drugs in an alcoholic drink, kidnapped the unconscious victim and put them on a whaling ship and by the time they woke up from the "mickey" they were about 100km out to sea and a "slave" working on a 2-3 year whaling ship trip or thrown overboard as shark food if they refused to work. ????

Phone app.  What makes you think that the brass would be making an international transfer, they'd be here in Thailand, wouldn't they?

[jayjay2001]

"...criminality linked to foreigners in Thailand which was damaging the image of the kingdom and which posed a nuisance to the public."  

 

You can also simply substitute "Thai Police" in place of "foreigners."

transfer to a country where escort agencies are legal and all investigations end there.
