"Pattaya’s police are cracking down on pharmacies selling sedatives in order to curb the number of prostitutes drugging and robbing tourists."

Is there prostitution in Thailand and do they do this to tourists?

why not have a proper crack down on the people doing the druging instead of fining them a mere 100 baht. usual crap bunch of people sat around few pictures and nothing changes. Xanax can be easily replaced with other drugs equally effective.

As a side issue is the lady looking at her I pad, very attentive! but also looks like a copy Lois Vuitton design

So it will immediately be available on the streets from non qualified vendors.

Nice to see Pattaya,s finest engaged in their relentless fight against crime, though from my observation the main buyers were farangs just trying to get a good night,s sleep in this cacophany of sound that even permeates most residential areas of the city.

i cannot see Xanax being a problem. It is hardly a knockout drug- more like a mild sedative. Also it tastes bitter as hell. Any coke (....acola) with that in it will definitely taste strange. And you would need several pills to drop a normal adult.

No fakes in Pattaya since the crackdown. Definitely an original Louis Vuitton case with an original Hermes badge.

I can't imagine how many Xanax it would take to use as a knock-out drug. Is this really what they use in their crimes? Hardly seems powerful enough from what I have read. What ever they use seems to knock-out people faster than they can call for help. Just doesn't sound like Xanax.
