Some nice hotels down on the beach front where you can dine outside with great views. . Central, I don't think so... Pattaya is a very big place it's not just Walking Street. Try crossing Sukhumvit sometime. Pattaya proper is a small place. I don't regard the other side of Suk to be part of Pattaya, nor Jomtiem, nor Naklua. It is a deep embarrassment that a young couple cannot sit and enjoy each other's company on holiday without being attacked. If the Pattaya Police volunteers know the area to be unsafe, I suggest they patrol more frequently and maybe even have a permanent presence. Shame on Pattaya. "Shame on Pattaya"....What are you banging on about? Its a Helicopter pad . Its reserved for helicopters, why would you want police to be permanently present there? Using that logic you would want a BIB in every poorly lit patch of land surrounding Pattaya searching for Stoopid Russians .

Whether cops are around or not these scumbags should have enough sense to leave tourists alone and go rob a Thai if they need money so bad.

Buakaw Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Romantic setting must have a different meaning for Russians. Their so called table is an overturned tub used for mixing cement. Their wine looks like Chinese made champagne (200 thb at Tesco/Lotus). But the rose and glasses taken from their hotel room is a nice touch.

sojourner007 Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Russian tourists in Thailand feel physically superior to the local 'midget' populace and therefore are not concerned about possible assaults even at night. Ruskies are also known for their arrogance and valiant disregard for safety. I can imagine that instead of just peacefully giving their money and valuables to the assailants and avoiding any physical harm they instead started fighting them. Will they ever learn?

timmyp Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Certainly tragic, but I wonder how much sympathy the couple would have if that same happened to two Thai tourists were drinking in a dimly lit area and continued to do so after being warned? A certain degree of street-smarts (common sense?) seems to escape people when they travel. Have their stuff stolen sucks, but it's good to know that they weren't injured more seriously.

Popular Post lucifer666 Posted January 9, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 9, 2015 (edited) There's no wonder that half of the posters on TVF have problems, it's their attitude. Who cares that the table is an upturned cement bucket, who cares that the champagne is low quality, Having lived in mud huts in an African Jungle, and in Siberia, sometimes these (moments) have to be taken, in the moment, and just because i have a broken old cycle ( instead of my Mercedes) and my whisky is Muhammad Ali( yes really, and comes in small plastic bags) instead of Glennfiddick and my food doesn't come from Asda's Farm Produce department, you just accept it. GET A LIFE,, Coupla Russkies, doing it their way, That's their decision. The article was about them being attacked , and all you TVF members can do is belittle their romantic evening. Hope you are proud of yourselves Rant over Edited January 9, 2015 by petercool edited obscenity 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joepattaya1961 Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Pretty sad when a couple not bothering anyone is attacked for no reason and robbed. LOSO Thais strike again and even if these brain dead zombies are caught they will be fined 500 baht or so and let go. This country is going to the dogs due to the corrupt Police and retarded locals You're so right.......as if it is important WHERE those people want to be romantic, WHAT the table looks like, HOW the Chinese wine tastes..........people should try to respect themselves and respect others accordingly.

balo Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 From my experience, if you do stupid things in Pattaya you will get punished. Drinking in the middle of the night in an unprotected, dark area is stupid. Pay the prize! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YeaBiGgiEs Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Why do they have different names if they are a "couple" and referred to as the "wife"? Sucks for them for thinking they can choose a remote location for a romantic night (scoring) especially being warned by local authorities... How juvenile is that. A helipad heh?

whitemouse Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Nothing smacks of true romance like an upturned cement mixing bin, a plastic rose in a cheap vase ,I mean 'bouquet'; and a rooftop bevvy on the roof of a dirty building in stinking god awful Pattaya. Surely there's a movie in this 'love for the ages' story? Maybe they were a young couple, and in love? This kind of stuff was romantic for me at 21, still is actually, minus the violence.

I want the police to be anywhere crime is very likely to occur, and in this case that is exactly where it happened. Sitting in their office or in a hotel lobby watching TV is not it. And we are taking about IN IN IN Pattaya, rather tediously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiu-Jitsu Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 I have taken many a Russian date up there over the years. In fact it is a relatively romantic spot. We've taken even cheaper drinks up there..as that is what the girl wanted. Not many young people actually like Champagne. That's just for show. Better to enjoy something that you like. I might have just a carton of juice. One can go to the Viewpoint, but there may be someone sleeping on a bench and varied bottles and rubbish on the ground. Not at all romantic. So I can understand them and am disappointed that such a thing occurred to them. The same idiots would be slagging them off if they took expensive Champagne with them. Idiots are just that. The whole of Pattaya is just downmarket. No matter how they try to dress it up....it's just a hole. So going on about cheap tourists is just a joke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
