Stunning coastline sorry did I miss something 

as for yobbish behavior yes but let’s not forget the nightlife along beach road where ladies of the night openly flouted their trade with the odd lady body sticking there stilletoes into an unsuspecting tourist or the odd vendor getting killed 

cheap booze will attract cheap quality customers see what you reap as they say 

 

".....cheap quality customers....."

 

Is that not a contradiction in terms?

A lot of tourists/foreigners related incidents there.

But still,  looks a lot better than UK today though.

My English friend said almost 99% of the burglary there now remains unsolved; police doesn't eve action At All(not responding to 911 call, unless thugs were injured/killed by the residents).

Crimes like that, are Nearly Decimalized out there...

I Hate to say this but I've noticed a significant rise in "Chavs" from the UK in Thailand in all the major tourist areas,Phuket,Pattaya etc. and just from my own observation I think the abundant availability of Cannabis is a big draw..it's brought in a whole new group of tourists..not for the better if you ask Me..just My opinion

💯 mate, the man bags are everywhere. I flew back into Thailand from Heathrow on Monday …hardly any backpacker types boarding ,just the usual old skool boys but lots of young skinny track suit wearing ,man bag carrying youngsters. They are flocking here for the weed and many stay as long as they can posting the weed back to the UK. The California market can only compete on cannabis quality for now but the Thai imports to the UK are far cheaper.

Seemingly a Fist Fight between 2 men.

Just another ordinary day in Pattaya...

When did this concern for reputation begin?

After the Pandemic lock-down ended, and the floodgates opened?

 

Let's kick them out.

And go back to pandemic-day tourist immigration controls.

 

Everyone needs to have a test before boarding aircraft bound for Thailand.

 

Not a COVID test, this time....

Just an IQ test.

 

 

An IQ test by who?? Oh! You mean by officials on passengers flying to Thailand? Good idea as long as the test is not carried out by officials already in Thailand.

Thailand will continue to have issues with disturbances until they crack down on the offenders. People with overstay are the only ones who seem to get banned. How about getting serious with violent and trouble making tourist. Rarely hear about them getting more than a fine and forced public apology. 

I love Thailand and I want it to prosper. But until the politicians in Thailand worry less about 'losing face' , and send a clear message ( through actions ) that violent and threatening behavior will absolutely not be tolerated it will continue.  

 

 

Yes, they need to get their priorities in order. The few overstayers are usually not of the trouble making kind, the "real" criminals probably don't report every 90 days anyway.

 

Violent and threatening behaviour seem to go hand in hand with alcohol/yabba type drugs, and it does seem to be that it is a certain type of individual that acts this way. I (and many of my friends)  have been hardened drinkers for many years (I am approaching 80 years old) and apart from one incident in my teenage years (that involved cannabis, washing up liquid, dye, and a fountain in our City Centre) have never been involved in any kind of trouble - violent or otherwise. 

 

So, yes, the RTP/Law Enforcement agencies should concentrate more on the real threats to society. Give them a decent wage and they will be less inclined to ask for backhanders to let troublemakers walk free, and troublemakers should be made accountable for their actions - a slap on the wrist and a wai is obviously not a sufficient deterrent for some of these "head cases".

Which kind of Reputation they are worrying about losing on earth?

Altercations, robbery, murder, rip-off... all getting part of the daily scenery there.

Red Light District  embedded with booze and sex trade can hardly go without 

incidents(some exceptions depending on the country though).

Especially, after the government extended  Open Door Policy to 93 nationalities.

The only thing over stretched is the uniform of that portly traffic cop that stands just before Pattaya Tai on Second road nailing all the foreigners with no helmets and licenses. I highly doubt he is ever without cash to keep his weight up......

My first big laugh of the day!

 

Electrifying nightlife? It is shocking!

[spidermike007]

After while you begin to ask yourself why is Pattaya always in the news, and I think the answer is that it is still the capital of the sex industry in Thailand, and it tends to attract a lot of low life types.

Boys with tiny d*cks who can't hold their alcohol should really stay home with mummy.

Getting hit over the head by a taxi driver.....slapped in the head by a passing motorcyclist......punched in the head by a drunken tourist.....I certainly is stunning.😋

The reason they dont respond to 911 calls is because the UK emergency call line is 999. 😋
