Oink Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Radio 103FM appears to have disappeared from the airwaves. Does anyone know what has happened. Tried checking their website, but it is about a year out of date! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovethailandelite Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 I am hearing there was 30 hotels raided and closed down yesterday in Pattaya for no licences. No idea where 103 operates from. Not even sure if they are even in Pattaya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guderian Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Their Facebook page isn't much help either, the last update was on June 2, 2014. That's almost ancient history nowadays. https://www.facebook.com/Pattaya103Fm/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LennyW Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 (edited) They are off air for antennae checking, hoping to be back on air by tonight, Thursday. saw it on social media in colour so it must be true. https://www.facebook.com/fabulous103/ Still available on line http://pattaya103.com/fab103/ Edited February 16, 2017 by LennyW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morrobay Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 (edited) Even when 103 is on, reception is bad because the Thai frequencies (that are loud and clear) on both sides of 103 "crowd it out" Edited February 16, 2017 by morrobay add Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

champers Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 A report in BP gave 30 as the number of hotels closed down. 2 were specifically named: Baboona and Beach Front hotels which are next to each other on Beach Road near Soi 4. Both were back up and runnimg yesterday so they must have got their paperwork in order PDQ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johng Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 its been reported by Thai media that the Hotels were inspected for for a raft of things including fire and safety measures some where found to be operating without proper licenses.

It's an ongoing thing as apparently only 239 hotels out of over a 1000 in Pattaya are licensed to be operating. It's now being reported on 103 pattaya radio that 'Several hundred hotels and guest houses' are liable to closure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's timely. With an anticipated +50% retraction in tourist arrivals during the coming hot, low season, the TAT will still be able to claim 100% Pattaya hotel room occupancy rates.
