webfact Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 Military Appointed Team of Experts to Take Over Pattaya This Week Story by Albert Jack PATTAYA: -- Pattaya was first granted city status in 1978 and since the beginning the residents have been able to vote for, and elect, their own mayor and councillors. It is the only city in Thailand outside Bangkok that has enjoyed that privilege.Local elections have been held every four years and the City’s one-hundred thousand registered voters have been invited to select their own representation at City Hall.The current mayor, Ittipol Khunpluem, son of Kamnan Poh, the man said to be the ‘godfather’ of Chonburi, was first elected in 2008. His second term comes to an end this week on Thursday June 16, 2016.So, what next for the local Government?Usually there would be another democratic election but as Thailand has been under military rule since May 2014 there are no plans for any more elections until late 2017, at the earliest.Full story: http://pattayaone.net/pattaya-news/225324/military-appointed-team-experts-take-pattaya-week/-- Pattaya One 2016-06-13
shirtless Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 This killed me military and experts in the same line , to take over Pattaya, more like ruin it.
johng Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 No not the end its the beginning of Pattaya becoming the long promised, world class family beach resort .
KhunBENQ Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 Apocalypse now, The end of the world as we know it Can they wait with apocalypse until end of July (for personal reasons)
Basil B Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 This killed me military and experts in the same line , to take over Pattaya, more like ruin it. Do not under estimate the military... IMHO I am convinced of the accusations that the farther of the current mayor is the head of an organised crime syndicate and hopefully the military will now be able to do something about the organised crime like the Jet Ski and Baht Bus mafia.
sungod Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 Use section 44 and speed that ridiculous tunnel construction up
johng Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 They could also use the miraculous article 44 to finish the Waterfront condo,rebuild the Bali Hai marina make all speed boats use said marina thus turning the area into the "Monaco" of Asia,remove all unsightly wiring and advertising signs,fix the roads and pavements,remove all beggers and street hawkers,ensure adequate drinking,flood and sewage water management and return happiness to "all"
Pattaya28 Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 I look at this as real positive news. I wish the military "good luck".
Brer Fox Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 Bridge Clubs and other entertainment locations for the Pattaya elderly (are they allowed Bingo) will now need to have tight security to keep the combat troops out. No doubt residents and tourists can expect to see many more soldiers on the beat wearing full battle gear, bulletproof jackets and carrying automatic weapons. Just as they have been seen to do in places like Soi Cowboy. That should add a bit of excitement to the raunchy tourist character of Pattaya. The last outposts of democracy in Thailand are surely being extinguished.
thesetat2013 Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 Maybe less corruption if military in charge. Heheee Hehe Heheee hehee
sanukjim Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 This killed me military and experts in the same line , to take over Pattaya, more like ruin it. I think that Military and Experts is an Oxymoron.. like Military and Intelligence ,
Chang_paarp Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 Maybe less corruption if military in charge.HeheeeHehe Heheee hehee They said that about Thaksin because he was already rich.
DrTuner Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 Put Samarn in charge and the place will be wasteland within days.
Rayk Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 Maybe less corruption if military in charge.You are funny.
Roomuck Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 My biggest concern is the dress code in the gogos will be changed. I am a huge fan of them wearing high heels, ear rings and make up under the current administration. I prey to the Dear Lord that this stays the same.
Partenavia Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 I seem to recall the definition of an expert was "a drip under pressure"
Eric Loh Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 Did someone say 'take over' the bribes, commission, brown envelopes. Expect more corruption and no one can question. Murkier and darker than the RTP.
balo Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 The first thing they should do is to close Soi 6 for good. And destroy WS. Get rid of all the bar owners. Lets turn Pattaya into a fishing village again. Love and peace.
DrTuner Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 The first thing they should do is to close Soi 6 for good. And destroy WS. Get rid of all the bar owners. Lets turn Pattaya into a fishing village again. Love and peace. I'm actually in favor of demolishing WS, or at least the sea side of it. Overpriced tourist trap, could be turned into open air beer bars with a sea view. Get rid of the Chinese troops, too. And while at it scrap that evil Central as well. Come to think of it, yeah, rip it all open including the roads and let palm trees grow. Good old coconut girls will return.
jippytum Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 Question ....Are the military to rid Pattaya of the Mafia or simply replace it ??
alofthailand Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 My biggest concern is the dress code in the gogos will be changed. I am a huge fan of them wearing high heels, ear rings and make up under the current administration. I prey to the Dear Lord that this stays the same. The army ordered a cover up last night.

Its already too late mate, you better start to get used to the changes....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2i6BXbPTRYY
