Crickey, such a peaceful location. I was there recently, sitting in a bar on the Sukhumvit with a few mates, Saturday afternoon drinking beers watching the traffic, commuters and listening to the rain falling. The video is worth watching, police protecting citizens, ladyboys climbing over people to attack, clumps of hair ripped out heads, I saw a passport ripped to shreds.

Popular Post Yagoda Posted March 5 Popular Post Share Posted March 5 I couldn't believe the cops got right into the middle of that brawl as opposed to whipping out the sticks and tasers and going to work. Oh I'm so depressed I missed that action. Those ladyboy fights are so interesting, sort of a combination of men throwing punches and women hair pulling and screeching. I remember about 9 or 10 years ago I watched two lady boys fighting in front of the Thermae, and then some dumb British guy got between the ladies to separate them and they beat the <deleted> out of him. It was wonderful. 2 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Iron Tongue Posted March 6 Popular Post Share Posted March 6 1 hour ago, scubascuba3 said: Are the Filipinos encroaching on the Thais turf? Lot's of ladyboys/trannies from regional countries go to Thailand for plastic surgery and medical treatments because of the cheapness & quality compared to their own countries Many of these have to work the sex trade in order to pay for their operations and hormones. This is why there are not just Philppinos, but ladyboys from Laos, Cambodia, China, even Japan working in the LoS. I assume the local ladyboys do not appreciate this competition. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The article suggests that Thai authorities (Immigration/RTP) think that there is an organized Human Trafficking effort here. Not sure if they think Influential Thais are behind this ring, or if it is organized in the Philippines. 4 hours ago, webfact said: Senior police suspect that this may be part of an organised racket linked with the sex industry.

Chongalulu Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 They're missing a trick here. With a more entrepreneurial approach they would be selling tickets to this conflagration.

It appears Bangladeshis are being shipped in to work in the restaurants, and maybe the Nepalese manning the Viagra and "marital aids" stalls.
