Crime Pattaya Authorities Launch “Operation Coconut Ghosts” to Crack Down on Foreign Prostitution
Picture courtesy of SiamChon. A joint operation involving over 50 officers from multiple agencies was carried out along Pattaya Beach last night in a targeted crackdown on foreign nationals allegedly soliciting tourists for prostitution. Dubbed “Operation Coconut Ghosts”. Led by Pol. Lt. Col. Torlap Tinamat, Superintendent of Tourist Police Sub-Division 4, Division 2, and supported by officers from Pattaya Tourist Police, Pattaya Police Station, Chonburi Immigration Bureau, the Chonburi Office of Social Development and Human Security, and Pattaya City officials, the operation focused on foreign individuals suspected of approaching tourists under the pretext of offering sexual services. According to authorities, suspects were observed loitering beneath coconut trees along the beachfront, a common area for such activities. Undercover officers monitored their behaviour, documenting incidents where they initiated conversations, attempted to befriend tourists, and offered services in exchange for money. Thirteen individuals were detained in the operation, seven from Uzbekistan and six from Uganda. Some were found to be on expired student visas or had overstayed their legal permission to remain in Thailand. Initial charges include violations of Section 5 of Thai law, which prohibits soliciting, recommending, following, or harassing others in public for the purpose of prostitution. Two individuals were also charged with remaining in the Kingdom without valid permission. All suspects were taken to Pattaya Police Station for further investigation and legal proceedings. Authorities plan to revoke their permission to stay and initiate deportation. Pol. Lt. Col. Tinamat stated that the crackdown was part of a national directive from Police Commissioner-General Pol. Gen. Kittirat Phanpet, aimed at bolstering safety in tourist areas and curbing crimes. The operation also followed instructions from Pol. Lt. Gen. Saksira Phuak-arm, Commissioner of the Tourist Police Bureau, who has urged all units to adopt proactive enforcement measures across key tourist destinations. Tinamat said. “Maintaining safety and a positive image is a top priority. We will continue proactive operations in collaboration with all relevant agencies to ensure Pattaya remains clean, safe, and welcoming to everyone.” Adapted by Asean Now from SiamChon 2025-05-09. -

Angina men's.
Try any pharmacy. Show them a photo or written names if needed. I know Imported brands like Amlodac are available and cheaper generic strips from GPO (government pharmaceutical organisation) Show the pharmacist the name of your 2nd med. Theyll know what it is. Ubon has at least one huge wholesale medical supply warehouse not open to the public stocking everything from kids vitamin c jellies to hospital beds. The wholesaler also has a normal pharmacy next to Warin Chamrap market. Sorry, cant help with prices as i get mine for wholesale. -

I am feeling a bit ..... anxious......
So what’s the good word GG? Have you left the building? Gone on to greener pastures? Abandoned ship? Been 86ed? Pulled a Houdini? Done a runner? Took off? Legged it? Checked out? Packed up and left? Got the hell out of Dodge? Turned into gamma dust? Slipped out the back door? Disappeared off the face of the earth? Or? -
