June 29, 201411 yr Popular Post What is sickening is that it took a military coup to help these kids.
June 29, 201411 yr Is it a violation of current TV rules to debunk the police? I've tended to be a bit reserved in my posts as of late.
June 29, 201411 yr The police just noticed them after 25 years+ They will be finding them on Walking Street Pattaya soon I think they are already there, another cesspit, this time, at pattaya
June 29, 201411 yr Hey TAT... A warning to soft hearted tourists about this situation should be handed to every tourist that lands here, Ignore the little beggars... and they will go away and so will those who try to profit from them.

June 29, 201411 yr Popular Post The police just noticed them after 25 years+ They will be finding them on Walking Street Pattaya soon I think they are already there, another cesspit, this time, at pattaya The only cesspit is in your mind. Both areas are major tourist attractions and host millions of families each year. Millions of families. Cesspit? Only in your mind.

When are they going to hit NANA and PATPONG? The same happens there nightly with kids. Sent from my GT-S5310 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app

How were we supposed to find it? With all due respect, perhaps the same way I did. Use a bit of investigation, Google etc. Start with the name. Maung is a common Burmese name. Cheers. edit to add: As for Nana and Patpong and Soi Cowboy and Pattaya and Patong and dozens of other entertainment venues catering to tourists, perhaps general Prayuth has set up a contact system with phone numbers or message centres. He is probably delegating authority to someone in uniform to deal with these serious issues and yes, they are very serious.

Well, yes actually I do, knowing the general quality of reporting and the veracity of the stories, I often check to find out a more accurate story.. In this case the reporter had misspelt his name and you ended up with a Lao dinner as opposed to a lousy Burmese. And I didn't quote Bangkok Post.

I'm saying the story should have been more accurate because we can't use the source as a quote.

Hope that helps.

June 29, 201411 yr Hey TAT... A warning to soft hearted tourists about this situation should be handed to every tourist that lands here, Ignore the little beggars... and they will go away and so will those who try to profit from them. But what would you prefer? They don't meet a daily quota and get beaten, or live without a beating until they are found, if found, hopefully? Hobson's choice?
June 29, 201411 yr And where's the pictures of the child slaves? Ratcatcher says we should google because the newspaper reporters can't be bothered. Hope that helps. tc1.jpgtc2.jpgtc3.jpgtc4.jpgtc5.jpg No comment necessary other than this. One. Did you, in your first years buy a rose, or a bag of nuts from the sad face? I bet you did on at least one occasion, until you learnt more.
June 29, 201411 yr With the current form of paper currency payment for work and the rate of inflation, I fear that anybody with a job is also a slave to a shitty system.
June 29, 201411 yr That location is a cespit, and an embarrasment to BangkokThat's a flimsy reason to throw rotten tomatoes at Kao San road. I've stayed at several locations within Bkk over the decades, and Kao San area is the least crappy, in my opinion.
