I take it, then, that you prefer false information to be posted here unchallenged rather than accurate information?

Most of the time I concur with your posts. Though I prefer to make my own mind up on what is accurate info.

Yesterday morning, a violent clash between foreign tourists erupted in Jomtien, near Dong Tan Beach. This marks yet another incident contributing to rising concerns about unruly behaviour tarnishing Pattaya’s reputation as a tourist destination. The brawl involved two groups of foreigners and quickly escalated before local officials intervened to break up the fight.

 

The police detained the two primary individuals involved, taking them to Dong Tan Police Station for further legal action. Eye-witnesses reported seeing a man and a woman attempting to flee the scene on an Xmax scooter, successfully evading capture by local officers.

 

Residents are growing increasingly frustrated with the frequent altercations amongst visitors. "Every day, Pattaya sees tourists fighting,” one bystander remarked, questioning why travellers would come to fight instead of enjoying their visit.

 

 

The uptick in such incidents has sparked deep concern among locals, who fear that Pattaya’s vibrant tourist image is being overshadowed by the violence. Social media is abuzz with discussions, with many locals voicing their frustrations about the city’s chaotic narrative, which they believe threatens Pattaya's status as a premier holiday destination.

 

Authorities are reassuring the public of enhanced safety measures to prevent further disturbances. Nonetheless, as these incidents continue to capture headlines, there is growing apprehension that a disruptive minority could negatively impact the city’s allure. Officials urge tourists to respect local laws and maintain civility, focusing on ensuring Pattaya remains a welcoming and enjoyable place for all visitors, reported The Thaiger.

Really?  Which African nationals that typically are engaged in drug dealing do you claim get VE entry to Thailand?

 

Which ones aren't?

Most of them.
