Hostess Bars all quiet?

[NokTang]

Is it due to the New Year's holiday period? We don't read the silly marketing slogans put out but the "owners" and their minions. Funny to say the least. This is selling time. Sell now when business is booming as a fool knows no different.

A good friend just back from a month in PNH. He says Martini's is hurting lady wise. The Khmer women are boycotting and the Vietnamese are demanding $30.usd short time with poor attitudes added in at no charge "hurry finish" and the like. A mamasan has also so I was told, been allowed back in and is working the concrete.

It seems "Poonton" is the booming place now. I've never been as not a late night guy.

Not that I've seen, and yes, it is getting extremely tiresome. NokTang - The serial monger with a conscience.

Hello. Happy New Year. Learn to move around a bookstore or library without losing your mind and get back to us will ya mate? For that matter, you can do it at a mall without being required to look at the titles! Even at the Central Market in PNH you might enjoy the exercise of only paying attention to what interest you. It's a rough world out there with so many people who don't conform to your idea of the perfect man/woman.

Sure I have. Do your homework before you lash out at other posters. Also FYI, Thailand is considering a one year Tourist Visa as we interact. Decision due next month. Cost is 3000baht. Not sure if it includes multiple entries but one would assume so? at least for a fee diba?

Oh, and there are an anticipated 6 million people going to attend the mass by Pope Francis Sunday in Manila. Can you imagine the planning that went into that, the diaper sales won't be limited to the police and the overall sewer and stench will compete with that of the New Orleans Superdome during Hurricane Katrina. Hope to see you there but as you can imagine, logistics will be difficult.

NT, thanks for the heads up as always. Haters gunna hate as usual.

A Google search turns up nothing on that subject. Where are you getting your info?

Don't forget that most of the hostess bars are Khmer owned and don't advertise. In fact I don't think the very few expat owned bars advertise that much. Angry Birds had a promotion recently with free food and 50c beers. Many of the Khmer owned places had free food, lucky draws, and ''two for one'' beers over Chistmas, but all info was just ''word of mouth''.

A friend emailed me this one the other day Soi Dog, and then it was on Thai Visa yesterday I think. It's a proposal presumably to combat falling numbers, 2,000 baht for 6 months and 3,000 baht for 12 months. Hard to see it being passed given the entire support industry profiting out of the regular visa business, and the fact it would slightly reduce the point of the retirement visa and the bureaucracy surrounding it.
