Popular Post Kerryd Posted June 26, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted June 26, 2014 Hmmm, 70 "alleged" prostitutes ? So they what, cleaned up the first 7 meters of Walking Street ? And 7 minutes after they left, those 7 meters were probably filled by 70 other "alleged" prostitutes. If they are "allegedly" prostitutes, do they have to pay "alleged" fines for "alleged" offenses they may (or may not) have "allegedly" committed ? And were those 7 Madagascan women really Madagascan (and women) or is it only "alleged" that they were one, the other, or both ? (Note: Neither the number 7 no the word "alleged" were harmed (irreparably) in the typing of this post.) 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confuscious Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 It still makes me chuckle that prostitution is illegal in Thailand... Just make it legal already and make them start paying tax... Imagine the revenue!... ££££££££ Making prostitution legal and make them pay taxes only benefit the tax department. Asking tea money to keep them out of jail makes more benefit to the people who are actually arresting them and need a day of paperwork. 70 x 1,000 = 70,000 Baht in one day. And release them as soon as possible so that the they can arrest them again the next day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai at Heart Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Hookers from Madagascar. All here without being trafficked and of their free will I hope. If they keep doing these types of busts and finding hundreds of different nationalities in a few weeks the stats will be that all the hookrs will be Thai. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember being deceived and robbed by a prossie once, when I was 16. She deceived me into thinking her silicon knockers were real and she robbed me of my virginity. Rotten cow. Keep up the good work, BiB. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porkster Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 It still makes me chuckle that prostitution is as illegal in Thailand... Just make it legal already and make them start paying tax... Imagine the revenue!... ££££££££ Making prostitution legal and make them pay taxes only benefit the tax department.

And release them as soon as possible so that the they can arrest them again the next day. I agree with that system also, but IMO at least the tax money would somehow eventually find it's way to improve Thailand as a whole... In an ideal Thailand of course, but it's feasible all the time the military are in control. LoL Tea money only gets the copper him him his BMW/Merc more quickly and gets his wife one too.... In a realistic Thailand of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, if they can so readily round up ilegals in prostituiton maybe only 100 yards from a police box, I guess getting off tier 3 is going to take quite a while.

Given that there was one man and 10 Thai women out of 70 then logically the other 59 must be foreign women so they would also need to change the employment laws to give them work permits as well.

Basil B Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 (edited) Wow... Worrying, 70% of Pattaya's prostitutes are lady boys, or was it just a cull of undesirables? What next, mass arrests of "Cheap Charlie's" & "Balloon Chasers" for vagrancy? Edited June 26, 2014 by Basil B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EyesWideOpen Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 (edited) The oldest story in Pattaya..... Whenever there is a crackdown to try and stop crime, the first thing the police do is head to Beach Road and start rounding up ladyboys. Gee why do you think the police do that ???? But simply fining them and releasing them seems a bit silly, and would do little to stop crime . They will be out pick pocketing tourist ten minutes after they are let out of the police station. Well I guess this catch and release program is good for funding the next police karaoke night... Edited June 26, 2014 by EyesWideOpen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
