The Pattaya Mayor says the Jet Skis are unregistered and they are independent businessman.

The City has no control over them.

Apparently, they just show up, uninsured, conduct business, don't pay tax, rent or and fees.

Is it possible for others to purchase a few jet skis and show up on Pattaya Beach and do business?

I wonder what would happen?

You should give it a go.

You'd need a work permit of course, either that or you'd need a very very brave Thai to front the operation, best line up a series of replacements for him/her, in the event something untoward should happen!

you would get knifed, they are well armed

Can l recommend an M16, or less noticeable a Derringer up your sleeve.

Could that be another little white lie coming from the local government.

As long as you give a cut to the police and jet ski mafia they might let you.

If your budget allows for it,buy a couple of baht buses and enter the taxi trade as well...

I have seen a European driving a pickup truck pulling a number of jet ski's along Jomtien Beach road, I guess he must have some involvement, maybe a silent partner, who knows..

To the OP, who has many posts of a negative nature, I say go to set one up (please OP, set one up).

Then see what happens.

Also, if you have no intention, as I suspect of setting up a business of this nature, why ask the question?

Are you that bored?

Be prepared to see your own demise. After that maybe you could talk in person to Buddha and have him send some lightning bolts down on the current mafia running the jet skis.

Maybe he has a large family who like to use jet skis? maybe he has many friends who likes to use jet skis? how do you know he's running a business?

, phew, bed time for me.

You want to set up a Jet ski business ??

I'm going to take bets on how long you'll last.

At least one of us should make some money out of it.

The OP should just go for it.

Wait 'til October when we are back I need a good laugh

Yeh, my truck has a lid, make great LOS Hearse. ...........

If you like Vodka, you can have a franchise apparently.

Surely you have to take a 'lack of ethics' course or something!

There are a few foreigners involved in that business and the scams as well. If you are well connected, you can do it. Otherwise prepare to have your skis destroyed and possible bodily harm inflicted.
