To enjoy Pattaya you really need transportation and to head further south. If you remove the hotels/restaurants/nightlife the main areas of Pattaya really have nothing to offer.

Is that what you think I ment ? :D Okay, I see I have a long way to go explaining things.

Efforts by police and politicians to clean up Pattaya's streets have faltered against the sheer number of gogo bars, massage parlours, brothels, and sex clubs that thrive in the city. Incredibly, these establishments offer services at prices as low as £12. In Pattaya, sex workers can be hired for a “short time” or transform into “rentable girlfriends” who accompany clients throughout their visit.

Hasn't been 12 pounds since 2015. These days it's 50 pounds and up.

So a friend tells me.

In the 27,000 sex workers figure, are the wives and girlfriends included?

My Thai wife costs me 500 pounds a month.

Cheaper than the UK where my Brit wife demanded 1,000 pounds a month and 600,000 pounds in severance pay.

You was paying your wife 10 000 Baht last year , 250 Pounds .

What did she do to get a pay rise ?

The 10k doesn't include sex.

Same as the 1,000 pounds for my Brit wife!

So, you pay your wife 10 000 Baht a month as a basic salary and you also pay her every time you bang her ?

So why are you going to Pattaya? Chiang Mai or Khon Kaen is where you should be going.

I think you'll find there's more to Pattaya than your sexual voyeurism allows you to see, - yet you haven't noticed it in Chiang Mai or Khon Kaen???

It's a bit sad , that you think I go for "paid services" just as a work colleague

It's sad to see people brainwashed by woke Western media hiding the reason they go to Pattaya.

This video does a good job of exposing the hypocritical western media labeling people who go to pattaya with the derogatory term "Sexpat" while the EU generates billions in revenues with this industry, legalized in many places.

And as a previous poster pointed out, it's not just for farangs. It has been catering to locals long before farangs arrived.

12 pound doesn't even cover the bar fine these days.

Where are the $15 places? Thats two drinks at Billboard. Even the African girls ask for more.

The numbers quoted in this article originated in a couple of stories in the UK tabloids in February 2017 and have been trotted out on a fairly regular basis since then.

Yes, the expats are just pedos; where it's legal in the world, you get mature women – in the foreigner sex trade, they cater for men who want young girls or lookalikes, and without proper regulation, there's nothing to stop them.

What a complete waste of money! I'd rather have a good meal and go home with some baby oil and a rubber glove..... Cheaper and probably more satisfying...

Read up about what a green lantern outside a Thai house meant, and what green lantern women were. You might be enightened by what you find out.

Stick to wrestling with boys. So more of a wholesome activity.

Why not finally play it straight ? Stop calling it a "quality-family-high class resort". Plainly admit it's the world's largent open air brothel and that's it.

As for cleaning up the area, with all those big brown enveloppes moving around the boys in Brown uniforms...well, well...okay, why not...

While tourist-facing areas are often the focus of international media, the prostitution industry in Thailand is primarily supported by domestic demand.

And the domestic market is responsible for around 70% of prostitution here, So if tourism was stopped tomorrow the prostitution would reduce by only 30%

Actually £12 is more than it costs for a "nosh" off an east european in Liverpool where I come from. Probably even cheaper off an illegal immigrant ( assuming one could actually find a female one )

I would imagine those who use rent boys are spoilt for choice , as long as they don't mind muslim "meat" I have no idea what the price would be , but with the laws of supply vs demand , probably about £5

Sounds like a variation of a MacDonald's "happy meal" have you found many restaurants that offer such a promotion.

It's lasted over 60 years.

But prostitution is much older and more established in Thailand than the tourist sex trade. It is a pillar of Thai culture.

Rubbish. Prostitutes are in every culture.
