reader Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 File under: "We're from the government and we're here to help you.....more easily find what you came here for." From Pattaya Mail Prostitution long has been illegal in Thailand and, if you asked some senior government officials in recent years, it doesn’t exist at all in Pattaya. But a city councilman now has suggested that hookers on Beach Road be “organized” into a confined zone. Maybe Boonanan Pattanasin, the head of the Pattaya Business & Tourism Association, can be forgiven for talking about such a taboo subject as the prostitution that, outside Pattaya, the city long has been famous/infamous for. After all, Feb. 18 was his first meeting as a newly appointed Pattaya City Councilman. Boonanan is concerned about Pattaya’s image for newly arriving tourists. He thinks seeing Beach Road sprinkled end-to-end with streetwalkers – as it has been for decades – looks tawdry. Perhaps, he had the audacity to suggest – the prostitutes should be confined to their own zone, out of view of those millions of families, children and faithful men who tourism officials believe are coming to Pattaya soon. Of course, establishing a zone for prostitution, while acknowledging reality, would give a stamp of approval to an illegal activity. In addition, Pattaya authorities wouldn’t be able to refill their coffers by sweeping up, fining and releasing the streetwalkers each month. https://www.pattayamail.com/news/pattaya-councilman-suggests-zoning-illegal-prostitutes-390032 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinapu Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 one doesn't need to sow stupid people, as we can see they grow by themselves and are even elected to the positions sometimes many tried and nobody succeed and by the way hookers are already organized, to the Beach Road , soi Bukhao, soi 6 , Walking street etc , it's not that one can see them hustling everywhere in Pattaya Boy69 and reader 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reader Posted February 19, 2022 Author Share Posted February 19, 2022 There's one thing that politicians have in common regardless of where in the world they were elected: consistency. They waste no time after taking office in demonstrating the extent of their genius. Boy69 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boy69 Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 It's typical to the Thai culture to avoid loosing face , they fully aware and courage the sex industry because it's hugely profitable but will never admit that it's legal neither aloud to save face for the state public image. The most funny thing is that some of the sex venues are owned or under sponsorship of these 'respectful' high ranking officials. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
