Rimmer Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Pattaya Police clear Pattaya Beach of Prostitutes PATTAYA: -- Following orders from the new Pattaya Police Chief, Police Colonel Nantawoot, a team of Pattaya Police Officers assisted by civil volunteers, known in Thai as “O-Po-Po-Lor”, conducted a late night operation on Wednesday to clear Pattaya Beach of Prostitutes and others suspected of loitering with intent to engage in anti-social or criminal activity. A total of 60 people were rounded-up, including 20 transsexuals and 40 women. All were charged with offenses relating to loitering with intent and prostitution and paid a small fine before being released back onto the Beach where they presumably continued with whatever they were doing prior to their arrest. source 2010-02-25 [newsfooter][/newsfooter] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salty Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 That should sort that problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharecropper Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 That should sort that problem. But hang on. It DOES sort out a few serious problems - namely the end of the month tea money and bumping up commission from fines (and probably a few free knee tremblers into the bargain)!

jonnybgood Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 (edited) they do this 2 or 3 times every week, its nothing new, I just wish they took the yaba dealing pimps instead of the ladies if their intention is to make the beach safer, but obviously its cash they are after Edited February 25, 2010 by jonnybgood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aussiechick Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Silly question - but why do the police wait for late at night - there are lots of "girls" hanging around in the daytime - or are they just relaxing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rainmon Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 "All were charged ... before being released back onto the Beach where they presumably continued with whatever they were doing prior to their arrest".

Meridian007 Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 I was thinking that it's about time someone tried to clean up the beach road and walking street, until I read that last line. All were charged with offenses relating to loitering with intent and prostitution and paid a small fine before being released back onto the Beach where they presumably continued with whatever they were doing prior to their arrest. I assume that the Pattaya One news writers are native English speakers, but the phrasing of this made me laugh! "Here we see the not-so-rare Pattayaus Prostitutinus being released into the wild once more to continue its role in the beautiful the circle of life..."

Theyreallrubbish Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 My impression has always been that the girls that hang down by the beach are infected with HIV or too addicted to drugs to be able to hold a job at any bar. Maybe I'm wrong and its the sweet innocent ones who don't know how to get a job at a bar, but I've always rather thought that punters who take beach girls have a death wish anyway, and to what lengths should we go to protect them from themselves. Kindof harsh I know, but they're obviously willing to engage in very risky behaviour and will come a cropper one way or another anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theyreallrubbish Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 "A total of 60 people were rounded-up, including 20 transsexuals and 40 women." I just noticed this. Is this a typical ratio for Pattaya, one in three "women" with the danglies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomchaiFuhlang Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Shame they concentrate on the Thai ladies and not the Russian Mafia prostitutes. I have nothing against the females, only their scumbag bosses. Of course, this exercise is really only about beer money anyway. I hope Pattaya's finest enjoy their ice cold Beer-Chang tonight, for tomorrow promises to be an interesting day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishhooks Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Was sitting in a Baht Bus when I got the ThaiVisa SMS about the crackdown about 30 minutes ago.

NALAK Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 wow 1113 people viewing this dont worry guys it looked like business as usual today. reference girls cannot get job in bars like some of us they like to be self employed not tied to a bar with strict start finish times, cut for not enough drinks or bar fines or have another day job.

virtualtraveller Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Actually I wish they would do something serious about this lot, have you ever tried walking down that promenade by night, it's near impossible without being forcibly accosted by someone every 10 meters refusing to let you pass (a real turn off if ever there was one), they practically manhandle you in the hope you'll be 'persuaded' to go home and make love with them. And when you get tough trying to escape it they react aggressively as if you're starting a bar fight. Ladyboys are the worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jomtienbob Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 I heard that this afternoon the red shirts were pouring into Pattaya and Sukhumvit was all blocked up. Looks like the Police chief is only just about to learn where his resources might be best applied. I wonder if they'll be makin a mess down here again eh? My guess is its likely because they want the international exposure! They must already think he's going to loose... now what would give them that idea??

Very unfair comment, these girls simply prefer to work for themselves (or so I'm told), . BTW how does one tell a Russian mafia prostitute from an ordinary Thai prostitute?? Serious question, but if you folks want to add punchlines, please feel free....within the rules, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
