wans Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 why do they always leave the pimp/drugdealers behind? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
londoedan Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 why do they always leave the pimp/drugdealers behind? I guess it's too much like hard work for our illustrious BIB / TPV / FPV etc.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessi Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 why do they always leave the pimp/drugdealers behind? Perhaps because of that little thing called Tea Money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pormax Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Why is this news? Happens so regularly. 100B fine means nothing to them they will be back on the prowl the next night. Waste of time!! All it was was 500B tea money for the police. If they were really serious and wanted to do something positive about it they would throw them all in a cell for 7 days and only released after payment of a legitimate fine of 5,000B.

JaiLai Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 WOW, 100 baht fine, that'll really put them off repeat offending - not! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tokay Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Congratulations for accomplishing nothing other than getting your daily tea money. Removing 50 hookers from the beach is like removing 50 grains of sand. Here is an idea... just cut down more trees. That will solve the problem.

uptheos Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Yep, Groundhog Day sums it up perfectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGhostWithin Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 How did they establish who are prostitutes and who are toursits? I can tell you that not all sitting on the chairs and sand are prostitutes, especially during the day. And not all of those Russian and Eastern European women walking around looking aling the beach are legitimate tourists. Not all of those thai men seemingly waiting for their friends are what we may think they are, and the noodle sellers are not necessarily only concerned with selling noodles. Maybe removing the bad birds from a group that many visit that city of sodom, sorry, Pattaya specifically for would help improve the sparkling image of the grand city...
