"time" For Pattaya

Featured Replies

Well written article S.J. shouldnt you have put it in the "positive things to say about Pattaya" thread though? :o

A good article,"fair and balanced" as Fox news like to say.This bit made me laugh.

" Take a walk down Beach Road, Pattaya's main promenade. Its renovation is comically never-ending and so unsightly that you must remind yourself it was Phuket, not Pattaya, that was hit by the Dec. 26 tsunami. Every 50 meters or so, bewildered Thai laborers peer into newly excavated holes like bad performance artists, while plants wilt in unfinished flower beds. (The city is plagued by water shortages.)"

I also like the even-handed manner in which the article is written. It seems rare that anything written tries to cover the multiple faces of the city. Usually it seems all bad or white-washed good. He seems to have captured well the odd mixture of visitors there with:

Can Pattaya have its cake and eat it? Can it really be a child-friendly red-light area? The Thai, British and Russian families at my four-star hotel shared their breakfast buffet with fiftysomething Western men and their teenage Thai companions.
