brewsterbudgen Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Presumably they were arrested under the Thai equivalent of the Trades Description Act. "Sex show" is a very loose description! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgeCross Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 i'm assuming the thais pimping live sex shows were allowed to continue though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joepattaya1961 Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 "They have been charged with ‘causing nuisance and harassment to tourists." So they haven't been charged for operating as illegal tour guides? Who came up with the classification "tour guide", they're just dead ordinary touts. Usually tour guides guide tourists, touts usually mis-guide tourists......totally different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nakhonandy Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 If they are not being charged with illegally working but "causing a nuisance etc" shouldn't the Thais doing the same also be arrested? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't know what you are talking about. The photos are very explicit and they very aggressively shove the flyers right into one's face. It has long been an outrageous nuisance. There is nothing remotely similar on baht buses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khon Kaen Dave Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Worry not,dear readers.This dastardly carry on will stop after Walking street has been demolished. Of course the question is,where will they go when its gone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul18620 Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 nothing new always happens on Walking Street and it will continue to happen no matter how many tour guides they arrest in one swoop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gk10002000 Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 If they were Russians, check the work permits and visas, then boot them. It really bothers me when walking down walking street and the Russian "ladies" are handing out fliers! The reason it bothers me is because I know many hard working falangs that own businesses over there but can't pick up a broom and sweep their own restaurant floor without being prosecuted!
