Possible prostitution in Pattaya?

Thailand is Cambodia's neighbor to the West, and this forum is dedicated to Thai news, stories, reviews, blogs, videos, Thai people and anything else related to the country. A lot of expats have both lived and worked in Cambodia and Thailand, and this area is a place to discuss all aspects of life in Thailand and what's going on there. Most topics are about Bangkok and Pattaya because of their larger populations of expatriates and tourists in those cities, but this is for all things Thai.

Possible prostitution in Pattaya?

Post by Soi Dog »

Good work by the local boys in blue (and green?). If such prostitution does exist, it must be eradicated! They can't allow the pristine reputation of Pattaya to be thusly soiled any more that their pristine beaches. We all know the beautiful beaches are the main reason tourists flock to Pattaya.
Pattaya Prostitution and Human Trafficking Bar Crackdowns continue
Posted on February 3, 2015 at 5:03 am

On Monday Night, District Officials, assisted by the Thai Army and local Police, continued to visit Bars and other entertainment venues in the Pattaya area in search of those engaging in Prostitution and venues which engage in Human Trafficking.

Officers began the night at the Heaven Gentleman’s Lounge in Soi Kasetsin 11 off the Pratamnuk Road in South Pattaya following information regarding possible illegal activities which were taking place at the venue.

The raid took place just before 7pm and over 50 officers entered the Lounge, which is a converted 2-storey luxury home with swimming pool. There were more than 100 patrons inside, both Thai and Foreign, who were split-up while officers conducted ID checks.

On the 2nd floor a total of 5 rooms were checked and a bag containing used condoms were found. Khun Panatda aged 36 is the Manager of the venue who revealed that the venue opens between 5pm and midnight and is a venue where women can meet men.

She stressed that the venue does not encourage any forms of prostitution and the rooms on the second floor are occupied by staff members and are not used for any other purpose.

Licensing irregularities were found and patrons under the age of 20 were inside the venue. No evidence of Prostitution or Human Trafficking was found but the venue is expected to receive a 30 day closure order according to officials who conducted the raid.

Later in the night the same group of officers raided 17 bars in the South Naklua area, their second visit in as many days. On this occasion 3 bars were found to be unlicensed and further investigations will take place on an apartment block which reportedly offers hourly room rentals for 50 Baht. Once again no direct evidence of prostitution or human trafficking was found. The raids are expected to continue over the coming weeks.

Please don't start rumors on CEO to smear the good name of Pattaya. They must be having one hell of a time finding these vices. As you know, Thailand is a very conservative country when it comes to prostitution, sex, gambling, etc. They don't even allow their own citizens to gamble.

Hmmm, Thailand police seem to be doing a lot of things in reaction to the regime.

I take it now that the bribe pipeline has been restricted, they intend to make it painful for as many financial stakeholders as possible.

Their tourism industry is really starting to stink with the murders, police extortion shakedowns with pee tests literally on the street etc.

With out a doubt this is all about the honor of the Pattaya Police. With the big increase in the power of the Army, I assume these establishments virtually spat in the face of the local constabulary by reneging on their promise to donate to their widows & orphans fund. This cast a vile stain upon the escutcheon of the fine organization and with the gauntlet thus thrown, this mandated swift retribution.

This could be interesting - or not. Is it a flexing of muscles, a general shakedown, or more specifically targeted ?

Hookers in Pattaya? Who would have thought? Did the police sort through the condoms to make sure they were used? (keep that image in your mind :-) ) Just another reason to visit Cambodia and not Thailand.

Eating off of a naked body Yum! Yum! Let me think back to my biology/health class's. How many different types of bacteria are on the human body? What parasites are on the human body? I like mushrooms (a fungus), but what about Tinea Pedis, Tinea Barbac, Tinea corporis? Just makes me want to fly over to Patts and book a reservation at this place Not!
