Chao Lao Beach Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Is it true that a Mayor or high ranking politician said that a couple of years ago and was serous? “There Is No Prostitution In Pattaya” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noob7 Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Obviously, there is no prostitution at all, in Thailand. Because it is banned by law. And as we all know, Thai'a are very close to the books. In special the BiB's. So the answer to your question must be: yes, he was serious. btw: Escort is no prostitution. And as long you pay for time, but not for sex,....!

They really do think that I am a handsome man, but appreciate a token of my appreciation in the form of cash. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 (edited) Has he also said: We have taxi meters in Pattaya? The prostitution dodge is obvious. "Offs" are sold, not sex. Edited January 7, 2013 by Jingthing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fakename Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 No prostitution, everyone wearing helmets, no running red lights, jet ski scammes are over, pedestrian lights all working, and everyone knows there is no corruption, things are really looking good now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteeleJoe Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 I don't know that a mayor ever said that. A LONG time ago (20 years?) a government minister went on an inspection tour and said she saw no signs of prostitution in Pattaya. Are you people saying you've seen some?! By the way, saying "prostitution is illegal in Thailand" is correct in precise terms but a bit of an oversimplification.

JSixpack Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 (edited) There might be some along Beach Road. However, there are regular roundups by the police for that. I suspect OP and most other posters except SteeleJoe have no idea how "prostitution" is actually defined in Thailand. What goes on is mostly, according to law, not prostitution.

Sent from my iPad using ThaiVisa ap The lady is a self publicist and has never been a Government Minister. She came to see for herself, giving BIB fair warning first of course, about 6 or 7 years ago. One of the tricks she pulled to gather some attention was to 'accidentally' fall into the Chao Phrya and one of her close aides drowned trying to 'rescue' her. I think she is now a sitting politician where she will be surrounded by prostitutes, all of whom have been bought and paid for, who have sold the country down the river. As a sideline I think she also saves wicked women. Give her a call. She might save one for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But from your description it was Paveena Hongsakul (which now sounds right but I was thinking it was someone else for some reason) and she was not a minister but an MP. Sent from my iPad using ThaiVisa ap EDIT: On the timing, the more I think about it the more I think I might be conflating two different things -- in other words, my memory is s**t and I'm confused. But I could have sworn it was longer than 6 or 7 years ago. Edited January 7, 2013 by SteeleJoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swissie Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Since the Thai-Language does not have a direct and clear word for prostitution it offers something like "soahht-penny" instead. This understanding can range from " pleasing someone for a return favor" all the way to "searching for money", to the other extreme.The different stages in between are too numerous to mention. Due to the lack of a precise description af this activity or line of work, of course, there is no prostitution in Thailand as the rest of the world understans it. I for one, I am not going to loose sleep over it. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SparklingCascades Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 (edited) There are guys who never pay for lots of "that" in Thailand/Pattaya or Asia.

brewsterbudgen Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 (edited) Prostitution is only illegal in Thailand if carried out in a promiscuous manner. The barfine system is an idea of genius and keeps prostitution away from the bars and gogos and other places of "entertainment". And nobody could possibly call those nice ladies who stand around on Beach Road promiscuous could they? Quite how Soi 6 gets away with it, is another matter!

talahtnut Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Quite correct, but there is a considerable amount of "Compensated Dating" taking place. I love the term 'Compensated dating'...Mine led to 'Compensated marriage' 14 years ago with one son..Best woman Ive ever had the pleasure to be with...Worth every baht...Call it prostitution if you like..but we all pay for our pleasure one way or another...and how much would any western woman cost!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
