Beach vendors complain about beggars

PATTAYA:--Pattaya beach vendors are complaining that beggars are causing public annoyance.

 

Jomtien Beach vendors called the media July 16 to vent their frustrations, with one showing a video getting aggressive with a tourist who refused to donate money. The beggar was chased away by others on the beach.

 

One vendor claimed the beggars come in groups of men, women and small children who trawl the beach for victims, often getting into confrontations with tourists.

I think those beggars brigades are not Thai, they tend to be from

neighboring countries.. and from what i have heard, they belong to a mafia

type that put out there to generate income...

Worse thing you can do is make eye contact and say ANYTHING. That's just an opening for them to engage further

Get a pair of those V R goggles same as the bird is wearing so you don't have to do the eye contact thing and if they still insist on striking up a conversation just reply with loads of cockney rhyming slang  .. It confuses the hell out of them and they usually move on fairly rapido looking for another billy .. And it works equally as well with irritating bar-girls , freelancers , waitress's etc .. knowhatimsaying

Q: Mr farang, can you help give me money ?

 

A: What you offer for me 555

Agreed.....

There is nothing so pleasant on Jomtien beach as relaxing in a deck chair under an umbrella and having a food vendor cook some really tasty lunch for you. I might also add that the masseuse are the best in Thailand, But I only do all that a few times each year. Should do it more..............Beggars can beg off.

Stones , glasshouses , throwing and don't are forming a picture in my mind .. How does it go again  .. ?

The word is "shouldn't" not "don't", but your point is valid. People who bother you complaining about other people bothering you, is, to put it mildly, hilarious.

I've been here 12 years but have spent ten trying to sell my house and move to Vietnam. I'm looking for a country with a police force.

What about the beggars by the dolphin roundabout, I get stopped there regularly and asked for money, if I try to refuse it gets a little intimidating some times

I have noticed an increase in Cambodians staying near the beach, maybe families of construction workers , maybe no more jobs here so they start begging instead.

exactly! just like the Romani clans  all over Europe generating millions of dollars a year, sending it back to a Romanian town called Buzescu 100 Kms South of Bucharest, full of multi-million dollar villas built by the "donations"
