Most tourists and Thais going to Pattaya know exactly what goes on there. They go because they want to and so be it .... Live and let live !

So let live scum going there to look for kids? and don't fool yourself that does not still go on. It's all illegal of course, so let live that as well? Let live the parade on beach road where pensioners can be seen slobbering over tattooed hags and girls of dubious age, really stomach turning, still live at let live whistling.gif

Be sure that this part of the sex- industry is really the smallest part of what goes on in Thailand.

Biggest number of praying on underaged girls are still the Thais themselves!

Wake up from your cozy dream and small the coffee!

Small the coffee is it? you have no idea at all what goes on in Thailand and just because Thais do something wrong does not make it right for westerners to do the same, or is it a case of when in lome do as the lomans do? cheesy.gif

Nope, but since you exclusively go off on the "scum going there to look for kids", I assume you are just outraged by sex- tourists...who are part of the problem...only the way, way smaller part!

If pattaya is such a bad tourist spot then why are there so many westerners?

At least you can eat nice farang food in Pattaya.

You go there for the food ? Edited by swampdonkey

just live people like you dont

So people have to go to one of Asia's biggest brothels and employ tarts to 'live' do they? Pattaya and prostitution seem of have a lot of fans on here.

Why are there so many people worrying about alleged pensioners taking up with local girls. If some of you feel so disgusted why don't you start up a fund and contribute to their welfare. Otherwise- I would suggest you mind your own business. When I first visited Pattaya in the 1960s there was only one hotel and the place was pristine. It is now overbuilt and contains certain elements that I do not want my family to have to contend with. However, live and let live. Many other people like it the way it is and that's all right. For us that do not care for it- it's simple- go somewhere else.

We had some paperwork at the embassy to do last week. After we finished we headed to Pattaya. This is high season and even though some say business is off by 52% it was a mad house of motorcycles, cars, and people going every which way. I play golf and even most of the golf clubs which take you to play each day were booked up and full. We stayed for 3 days and I played enough golf to take me a week to get over my soreness.

I like Pattaya and had thought about moving there a couple of years ago just for the golf but with the price of hotels it just makes sense for us to go stay for a month or two when we get the urge. I don't really drink nor look for someone to dink... But Pattaya has the best, most reasonably priced golf in the country; even during high season IMO.. Whatever makes one's boat float, no?

Sigh.......If you are worried about kids being preyed upon, you will generally

not find them in bars catering to farangs. Instead you will find thousands of

karaoke bars scattered all over Thailand with endless Thai men preying upon

underage Laos girls. Whatever happens in Pattaya is a drop in the ocean.

So rather than your weak argument of two wrongs do not make one them right,

Thai men abusing young girls sort of wins out by sheer numbers.... But it is

always amusing to see points of view by farangs shaped by misinformation

from their village wife, rather than actual news.

Pattaya is a filthy hellhole of neon and sex.

so being in a city full of beautiful women is a filthy hellhole?

just booked my trip to Vang Vieng. i will check the filth for myself.

normally its the men who are more beautiful in Pattaya so be careful.

I really miss the Thailand of yesteryear when I first went there all those years ago so much has changed for the worse. Happy to say I spent all my holiday money in my own country and loved it this year.

So true - that is what attracted me to it whistling.gif

Well anywhere might seem preferable to Leicester. As a seedy open air brothel it's neck and neck with Angeles city for top of the dump

pattaya is far more than a seedy open air brothel. it has world class botanical gardens, beautiful islands, waterparks, pattaya park tower and other nice viewpoints, dozens of golf courses, fitness studios, shoppingmalls, cinemas, all kinds of sports (bowling, shooting, gocart, kite-surfing, horseriding, everything), thousands of good restaurants, many 5 star hotels. tenthousands of thais working in bangkok have a second home here in pattaya. it is the holiday destination nr 1 for most thais. angeles city is absolute no comparison, except beeing also a partytown for tourists.

ummmm lets see neon and sex available ? i suppose London, New York, Berlin etc must be the same as sex via prostitution, brothels, internet escorts, massage parlours gang bang clubs, swinger sites, contact magazines and even street hookers is widely and easily available all be it at a bit more expensive price,

mind you you can go to see the National gallery in London as well, nice !!

One thing you will not see in Pattaya is one of those booths they feel the need for in New York.... gigglem.gif

facepalm.gif Sober up. The 'beautiful women' are actually men. Beware of 'beautiful women' in cocktail dresses..., That is, if you actually want a female.cheesy.gif

i don't drink, but thanks for the warning. none of the beautiful women i am with are men. :)

Thank you, Thank you ......they are helping to keep the numbers of tourists from going to theses places.

I was hoping for some good news.

Better they do not come anyhow.

Cheers

True....if you are not interested in sex and debauchery then there are plenty of other things to do.

Pattaya City is sort of like Disney Land ...but Disney Land does not offer all the other things that Pattaya offers.

There is going to be a need for those Manhattan booths due to poor tourists from countries with economic downturn... to reduce potential sexual assaults.

"Pattaya is a filthy hellhole of neon and sex.

Complete overstatement. Obviously never got out of Walking Street. Probably having to much fun there.

I am not sure this guy has even been to vang vieng... a simple google search would have given more accurate info on the current vang vieng which is very different from the wild van vieng...

If you're going to trash a place it might be a good idea to actually go take a look first....not write some slam article based on hearsay or a visit years ago.

Funny that Bang Seang just down the road from dump city has very few falang visitors in comparison, yet it has a much nicer beach, far cleaner sea and some nice hotels plus is nice and laid back like the Pattaya of yesterday that many yearn for. Now what is it missing I wonder whistling.gif ah if only they built a go karting center or maybe yet another gold course laugh.png

Guess Greater Pattaya has many more attractions than the neon & sex scene on Pattaya Beach. Medical and dental tourism, eg. And it's certainly a good place to retire.

....if you don't mind having men dressed as women walking up and grabbing your crotch as you stroll down the sidewalk. Or if you don't mind a farang man's body falling down from a condo balcony once in awhile. Caution: look up for safety when walking near a condo.
