These replys make me laugh. Why is it when someone moves to los they instantly become anti tourist calling them sex pests and the like remember you where once tourist and branded in the same category. Its tourism keeping your costs down. Think before speak

High Season?????

High Season?????

It may not be a record high season this year, but it is for sure much busier now than it was 2 months ago!

Another good laugh with thai politicians.

Mr Ittipon Khunpluem (son a of powerful family in the area) won the elections in Pattaya. He’s the new mayor.

This young and brillant top gun has some very bold ideas…

Mr. Ittipon intends to put his vision for a new improved Pattaya into practice by carrying out the following policies: (Pattaya Daily News)

-environmental improvement

-the implementation of an effective water supply for the city and Kho Larn (Coral Island)

-a 12-year free education system

-low-cost housing for low income groups

-a new, improved traffic system

-a tramline transportation system

-flood prevention

-job opportunities to decrease poverty

-the eradication of Pattaya’s red-light venue – Walking Street

-the establishment of a drug-observation and prevention centre

-the encouragement of ecotourism

-the construction of a sports centre

-the establishment of a tourism festival

-the encouragement of world-class entertainment
