CrisRMenumate Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 we have had racial profiling, religious profiling and now... sexual gender profiling.... or is it non-gender profiling.. or is it 3rd gender profiling... I am so confused I need to check my profile.... but BIB will fix it by giving them all 100 baht fine... for loitering... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lancelot Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 I do love to read about these "Clean Up" campaigns. Once again Beach Road is safe for families! But I do catch myself shedding a few tears for some of the working "girls." A whopping 100 baht fine is a financial penality that many will never recover from... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petercool Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 (edited) Since there is no other way but to harass these ladyboys often and fine within the one law of loitering, the police do just that. Photos and ID's get recorded which are then on file should any one of the ladyboys be involved in something more serious than hanging around for customers. If police do nothing people here will complain and when they do something people make bad jokes. Edited June 28, 2013 by petercool 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilipCook Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 The renovation work along the beach road to include the walking area is tremendous, the pace and quality of work included. One can only imagine how it will look a few months after completion with the loitering back in place. I get the point that Pattaya is a haven for loitering but can't they confine the loitering to a specific area and leave the beach alone? Put all the power lines along the beach underground, prevent motorcycles from riding along the walking area and ban the sale of alcoholic beverages from the bicycle ladies. If you want the beach area to be the showcase of the city, then remove the things tarnish the showcase. Severely restrict the vehicles that can park temporarily along the beach road, prevent buses from even entering the beach road. In short, its not just the loitering ladyboys, its about compliance with a clear strategy which makes the beach a respectable showcase for everyone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emdog Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 " the standard of people there it looked like a zoo." And zoos are tourist attractions! I should cease to be amazed, but I guess I am a slow learner... re: police bust. Are no other crimes more urgent, such as jet ski ripoffs? They are so brave taking on the ladyboys! like their fearless crackdown on smoking a month or so ago. I could ask how they can have any self respect, but I assume they check to make sure you don't have that before becoming a BIB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slipperylobster Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Does this mean that the Pattaya Police are able to immediately identify if these people are ladyboys and not just ladies? I must applaud their proficiency in this area. Perhaps the Police Academy has "hands-on"" training for this area of expertise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm enjoying the real Thailand. Thank you very much... Good for you,I also enjoy the real Thailand and it's the Real Thailand I call home.

It would appear you seem to be on an English Language campaign, I was wondering who you are referring to as "nothing people" ? Not so cool now, Peter!!
