    So why don't you you name them, and their bars?
    Never mind the alleged owners, can you even list the bars in Sunee?

    Really? Perhaps you could name them so in future we won't be swayed by their biased comments.
    And "to get there was a nightmare 30 minutes" ? Via where? Sunee is all of 270 metres from the VC hotel on Pattaya Sai 2.

    Not more than you....you quote 2 articles, 1 from 2019 and one from this year....THE SKY IS FALLING!

    Motorcycles everywhere in Thailand (all of Asia?) are crazy...but you keep saying certain nationalities.....then wtf does Mother's Vineyard have anything to do with this site....project much?

    Well i've lived in thailand for 22 years i am not a once a year tourist inventing gay fantasies in thailand for forums, drama queen i'm straight acting unlike you, judging from from your bitchy comments, you seem dead against any good advice to tourists, i was a victim of bad advice in this forum 3 months ago regarding sunee plaza hence my posts here to correct the nonsense promoting the area. If you ant to write bitchy comments please do, camp people by mature are bitches.

    Arabs and Indians buying property in Boyztown? Really? The Indian visitors tend to be relatively short of money and congregate around South Pattaya in groups. Men-only. The Arab guys- not many nowadays- tend to be young and looking to party not to invest..  
    Blaming Pattay's woes on ethnic groups is silly. It's not the people who are in Pattaya who are the problem but those who don't come anymore, for whatever reason. Pattaya needs to win visitors back, not denigrate those who already there.

    I am not an owner of any bar in Sunnee plaza. Just someone who enjoys the bars, and the area that still has a go go bar with twinks.
    I’ve walked there after getting off the baht bus countless times and can’t recall once where I was in danger of being hit by a motorcycle. This was from January thru April of this year. Maybe with the easier entry it’s more congested now, possibly.
    RobimHood sounds like he’s into drama. Just stay away then. And while your at it, watch out for lightning. And don’t touch anything metal, you might get shocked,lol.

    The latest arrests of arab kids in their hundreds going down sunee plaza main road was last month, this is a fact it was all over the news in july i was never so terrified in my life, it was like going down a motor bike race track with no pavements.
    & multiple tourists have been injured & killed by these lunatic kids also facts, as for posters saying they were not affected well if you go on foot in the evening you would be. There are thousands of news reports on this problem.
    Boystown has always been my favourite in 20 years i have never been to jontien, but even i had to go there because of the lean pickins in boystown, look lady bars are busy as hell from what i seen, but boys town is empty and arabs and indians are buying all the property here, this is not racism, the problem is they do not frequent gay bars as a race, so they are a minus to the area when they are dominating the streets around boys town, & i forsee violence from these arabs to the gay community there soon if thai businesses keep moving out. I love thailand i lived here for 22 years in bangkok, pattaya used to be the best for bars now bangkok is.

    Please be honest in reports here i feel i wasted my time going to sunee based on inaccurate info here on winners boy, nice boys they were both no good, winners was empty with 3 kids sitting with their clothes on a table outside, nice boys had 4 old guys on the stage, and to get there was a nightmare 30 minutes of dodging hundreds of arab motorbike kids & none of them have driving licences, i think you have expat bar owners at sunee promoting this area in this forum, hence the biased comments.
    In 22 years of living here this was the worst & most scary time in thailand going down that soi at sunee, for gods sake take a cab if you need to go there.

    Robinhood must be a troll. I won’t even repost anything he wrote. Does he even know where Sunnee plaza is? I doubt it.
    He claims it takes 30 minutes to reach Sunnee, he must be using a walker. It’s a five minute walk and he’s certainly exaggerating about the Arab motor bikes.

    If there are thousands of news reports, why don't you cite them?
    In this post it's Arabs and Indians. in another it's Vietnamese. You seem to harbor a hell of a lot of prejudice.
    You claim to have lived in Pattaya for 22 years yet you still rely on posts to find your way around town? And you accuse other members for being less than honest? And in those 22 years you only joined the board last Saturday?

    Rarely do those who base their pugilistic ability on lifting weights win bar fight or a street fight. It's determined by totally different skills and experience.Regarding Vietnam boys, you're either incredibly unlucky or making this stuff up as you go along.
    You claim that you're "...not against Vietnam.." but in the same sentence caution us to" ...say no & move on..." if we ever find ourselves thinking about going with a Vietnamese.
    The only drama queen appears to be you.

    " they have killed tourists in this soi a few times" "the police pretend to make arrests"
    I think you're over-dramatizing. Many of the regular posters on this forum have a long and intimate acquaintance with Pattaya and their reports don't match what you are saying or indeed my own experience.
    I took your advice and Googled and yes, The Pattaya News has a number of recent articles reporting where the police have indeed made a number of arrests recently. As for "killed tourists" the only ones I found were riding the motorcycles, not innocent bystanders.

    Forget about sunee plaza its a nightmare getting there & their is about 2 hundred idiot arab kids on motor bykes just mindlessly going back & forwards up the same street they have killed tourists in this soi a few times, it was the worse expierence of my life, the police pretend to make arrests every year, but it has been going on their for 10 years, the locals are furious. No matter what anyone says avoid it., honest facts, look it up on google arab kids pattaya arrests the latest this month.

    To hear the word in question, go to Google Translate, choose Thai, paste in the word เงี่ยน
    (here I've done it for you: https://translate.google.com/?sl=th&tl=en&text=เงี่ยน&op=translate )
    and click the "listen" icon
    (ignore the "Ngeī̀yn" you will also see; that's just Google's own weird transliteration which nobody else uses. It's a letter-by-letter substitution for the individual Thai symbols, and doesn't even approximately indicate the pronunciation, not least because it knows nothing about the way Thai compounds 15 vowel symbols to make about 50 different sounds 😕)
    No, that's เดิน with a completely different vowel (no ย):
