Popular Post webfact Posted May 1 Popular Post Share Posted May 1 In response to noise and fireworks disturbances at Jomtien Beach, officials from Banglamung and Pattaya police carried out surprise inspections on May 1st. The checks were also spurred by a gunfire incident on April 25th, 2024, where a drunk 29-year-old Thai man had fired shots into the sea at Jomtien Beach. The inspections, conducted past midnight and involving Pattaya City Hall officials, targeted beachgoers, mainly teenagers. Officials checked for illegal substances and unauthorized items, and issued warnings to vendors selling forbidden goods such as Kratom water, firecrackers, and fireworks on sidewalks. The team told reporters that these nuisance-induced items disturbed hotel guests and local residents. Many had complained about loud music, consumption of alcohol, and late-night fireworks on the beach, which hindered their relaxation and sleep. Aimed at deterring such activities, this joint operation seeks to ensure a safe and pleasant experience for all at Jomtien Beach. Visitors are advised to work with officials and report any unlawful activities to help maintain a peaceful beach atmosphere.

Emdog Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 "...Pattaya police carried out surprise inspections on May 1st." Surprise everyone and station a couple of cops down there every night. "You may say I'm a dreamer...." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickcage49 Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Gee, maybe they should get up early some morning and see what goes on at Jomtien Beach in the early morning (likely all night), with loud music and partying. These people double park in the street, as do the food vendors, causing a safety hazard. But 5:30 - 6 am is a bit too early for Pattaya's finest, so I understand.

There's CCTV cameras all over; some of them work; nobody watches them unless the complainant publicises police inactivity on social media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
