Well, this should be interesting.

PATTAYA. 8 July 2017.
- The newly appointed head of the Chonburi Immigration Office said anyone applying for long-term visas would be thoroughly investigated.
Pol. Col. Songprode Siri­sukha was introduced as the new Pattaya area immigration chief June 27. Pol. Maj. Satawat Srirattanapong was named deputy in the annual reshuffle.

Songprode told his new staff he intends to dedicate his work and commitments toward the security of visitors to Pattaya and the surrounding areas.
Part of that will be ensuring that those on long-term visas are safe to have in the country. Therefore, people who are requesting a long-stay permit will be thoroughly investigated for the safety of the community and the nation, he said.

He added that illegal immigrants and international criminals will also be a priority.

Songprode is said to be a laid-back person with a friendly personality. His policy will be to provide services and welcome visitors with open arms as if they were family, staffers said.

Pattaya is a family destination innit?

Pattaya was born out of US shore-leave marine stays during the Vietnam war.

Only a kiddy-fiddler or sexpat incestuous threesome-seeker would think it was family destination.

that is what the Thai junta says it is. a family friendly destination.

Richard, can you post any reliable sources for that claim?

I'd appreciate it.

I believe vladimir lived in pattaya before he moved to Cambodia. I'm sure he knows what types live and visit there.

I was asking Richard for a reliable source for his claims. Perhaps you didn't understand that?

I also lived in the old Phnom Penh, where bogans and kiddy-fiddlers made a living out of running brothels.

But let's try and stay on topic, shall we?
