Ive noticed these street kids singing for money most mornings bali high side of walking street , in sight of police it makes me wonder how they get away with it ?

Is it illegal to sing?

Mornings?

On Walking Street?

Is that a thing?

OP, don't be a grumpy so and so.

It's only kids trying to make a few pennies.

They should be the last of your worries in Thailand.

Better than being out at midnight doing it if it is indeed a necessity for them to survive - rather than be part of a gang that exploits them

IMHO, posting pictures of street kids, especially of kids who might be in the country illegally is not the smartest and the most ethical thing to do.

Police did not stop them because they get a percentage.....thats why they were hanging around.

just one cornetto ??

This was a week morning , seeing these children actively begging made me wonder why they were not attending school like the rest of the children their age.

One of the comments makes me think that they aren't Thai kids, and that made me realize that I rarely see any Thai buskers, only beggars. The only one even close to being called a busker that I can remember seeing is blind guy who would walk around some of the markets in Pattaya playing a musical instrument and being guided by his wife, I assume. Are there laws against busking in Thailand, or is the concept just not known to Thais?
