Pattaya A-Go-Go Staff Beat Up Foreign And Hi-So Customers

[jackcorbett]

jackcorbett has nothing to worry about, he wouldn't get beat up in a bar here as he would of already bored them all to death.

I'll be sure to use my word count feature in WP to put more pizazz into future comments. We can call such future posts "Jack Corbett Lite" in the same spirit as "U.S.A. Today" or "Readers Digest" for those who either don't have the time for more in depth analysis or are a bit lite themselves.

For my part I apologise, didn't mean to come across as nasty, and it was in response to your first post in the thread which did seem to be a touch verbose. However in your following posts you do seem to talk sensibly and factually. Best wishes to you, and I look forward to more of your posts in the future.

No problem. But some will be lengthy.

I agree. I love Koh larn and I just stayed there and had a great time. My Thai girlfriend and I of

3 years also walked the red light district in Pattaya but we did not go into any actual go-go bars.

We had no problems at all. I have never had a problem in Thailand because I make smart choices.

I have a good girlfriend and I don't need to go into a mafia run go-go bar. Everyone should simply know the risks of drinking

and going into places like that. Hopefully they will have fun and be safe.

How about just staying OUT of the go-go bars? I was just there and walked the red light district in the street for fun with my Thail lady of 3 years but had no desire to actually go into a slutty mafia run go go bar! Trouble is always bound to happen if you put yourself in the situation - duh.

Instead we paid 1000 baht for a room over the water on Koh larn island and got a motorbike for the day for free with the room. If you have a smart and real Thail lady the other thai's will give you good deals and respect you. Nice time.....play smart and have fun.

PS: If you want to know the wonderful couple who has the beautiful quiet rooms on Koh larn Island message me privately. They do not have a website or email.

How about staying OUT of Koh Larn? Because one day there might be trouble there too! I am not a fan of go go bars but still go there many times accompanying friends who are on holiday in Pattaya.

I have never seen any problems and assume and hope that these issues that we hear about are infrequent. But as it is your right to visit places that interest you and your lovely girl I would feel sure that you would also feel that others can make their own minds up!

It is actually called freedom of choice and many people really love this concept. As for people making bad choices it sure does happen and if so you wear the consequences of your choice don't you?

Just ask the people of Egypt and Tunisia if they would like to have freedom of choice. We all know that they and other people do not like being dictated to by others who believe they know better and are of the belief that they are superior. Sound familiar to you?

Just like choosing to ride a motorbike when approximately 10,000 people die each year in Thailand on motorbikes! As they say "up to you"

Koh Larn is in my opinion the hidden jewel of Pattaya and for me in many ways better than Koh Samet. It doesn't have the hotels, the bars or the talcum powder sand that Koh Samet has, not that Koh Samet is renowned for its night life or the underwater visibility that Phi Phi and many other places here in Thailand have for scuba but it does have clean water and most of the beaches have buoys anchored out 150 to 200 meters from the shoreline so the swimming is actually better than Koh Samet's. Best bet is to rent a motorbike right off the main pier and drive all over the island. One will find stunning views and little traffic. But what does this have to do with getting beat up in a go-go bar? Oh well. Go Koh Larn.

The whole mafia scene in Thailand now is getting out of control. The police are taking kickbacks from them but they still need to control them to a degree, they are so lazy they are not even bothering anymore. As long as they get their money they don't really give a shit about anyone.

This is actually down to this government. Crime has been spiralling out of control since they took over.

The Police are particularly not bothered because their man is in exile.

"she took her friends out for a drink at the entertainment venue “super girls a-go-go” on Walking Street Moo 10 Nongphrue Banglamung Chonbrui ."

And this is what I love about Thai law. No mention of the club out of fear they will sue.

One more reason this crap happens over and over. Not only are there no consequences, but you can't even name the place.

their man?

Any follow up on this yet? Anyone charged? Some of these stories just seem to go away.
