Brawl Involving 20 Men in Pattaya Leaves One Person Seriously Injured

[webfact]

Pattaya —A group of nearly 20 teenagers brutally assaulted a man during Wanlai celebrations in Pattaya, leaving him with serious head injuries.

The incident occurred in the early hours of April 19th, 2024, in Soi Nern Plab Wan, Pattaya. The violence was captured on video by a bystander and went viral on social media for its brutality.

 

In the video clip, more than 20 men appear to be assaulting a man wearing a purple shirt until he fell unconscious on the ground. In their hands, they held objects resembling garbage scoops and brooms to attack the lone victim.

 

Initially, the attackers retreated when the victim lost consciousness. However, when the victim attempted to stand up and walk away, he was struck again by the same group until he collapsed unconscious for the second time.

Sounds like a gang hit. I'm sure this isn't a total stranger to the murderous gang. Certainly reflects negatively on Pattaya. YMMV

The family friendly jewel in the crown Pattaya strikes again.

It's usually 5 against 1. This time it's 20 against 1, and they still need weapons.

It's the culture. No different really to a pack of wild dogs. And such violence is always there bubbling just under the surface, waiting like a volcano to explode.

500 metres from my house.  I take it there were no police about at that time and on a day with a 'y' in its name.

Yes the culture.....

A culture where kids are forced to show respect to elders, rather than simply showed how to be friendly.

A culture where people teach their children that adults are more worthy than them, you have to 'wai' to adults.

 

Seems to me that when these kids grow up, they want to show that now, they are 'grown-ups', but ill equipped to do so based on their upbringing.

And they do not want to fail in showing that they are now strong. Even if it takes 5 of them to show their newly-acquired manhood...

There is something real nasty that has been embedded in the mind of these people....

 

Not seen in my culture. Anyone has another cause to effect reasoning for this behavior that we see here....

I see nothing wrong with brats being taught to respect their elders, The protocols regarding the "wai" are a little too complicated for  most foreigners to fully understand.  None of that is relevant to this story

 Perhaps if Thailand had a more established football league young males might find a more appropriate medium in which to vent their natural aggressions just like in the "civilised" countries in western europe

What nonsense! Thais are on the whole coward's and bullies. They lasted meer minutes when Japan invaded, their hands up and white flags flaping in the wind. It is ingrained so they will only fight when they think they are on the winning side. Why so close to China? Because they wrongly think China is stronger the same mistake they made with Japan. Thai history is full of examples.
