Khmer boys leaving Thailand for good?

[DaddyOh]

I was in Toolbox Bar in Phnom Penh over the weekend. Normally there are nine staffers in the bar but was surprised to see over 20 boys there on Saturday and Sunday night. I talked to a few of the new faces and they said they've returned from Thailand because of all the turmoil between the two countries. Also was told that the Khmer boys can now only get a seven-day visa for Thailand which doesn't make it economically viable for the boys. They figured most Khmer boys will leave Thailand soon and doubted if they would be returning any time soon, if at all.

How are the bars in Bangkok and Pattaya doing? Is the void being filled by Thai, Laos or Burmese boys?

Very interesting post 

Could lead to higher prices in Pattaya if that's the case , more buyers than boys !😳😳

I just returned from Thailand and yes, it looks that because of 7 day visa a lot of Khmer guys left and  now they are pondering their options.

Since recent spat between two countries seems to be sourced in internal politics rather than real border dispute serving only as  haze and smoke , chances are situation will return to normal in few months.

A lot doesn't mean all , as quite a few are still soldering on.

I visited  all Bangkok bars bar Hot Male  as well as Best Bar, Dreamboys and XBoys in Pattaya and everywhere situation was the same   - numbers of boys on the stage was higher than number of patrons in the bar at the time so I wouldn't worry about price inflation.

I wouldn't mind more Myanmar guys to fill the void.

I have found one or two Myanmar boys who have been more than able to fill my void in the past! 🤣

I’m contemplating a two week trip in early August. From what I’ve read and seen on YouTube about Pattaya it would seem that the lowest of low seasons is in progress with the bar areas resembling western ghost towns with tumbleweed blowing about and the roads flooded. Now we have this report about Khmer boys not coming due to political tensions.

Im hoping this is all an exagération and that gay tourists like myself will find substitutes in boys from Myanmar and Vietnam, arriving and filling the bars and listing on GrindR otherwise I’ll defer for a few months.

I left Pattaya on 19th June and there were plenty of young men in Jomtien who are eager to meet customers. Boyztown is somewhat quiet.

Once in Boyztown a money boy attached himself to me, uninvited, and got in the songthaew with me to ride back to Jomtien. I told him that I was also looking for money for sex (aged66!) and he got out and disappeared.

The very first time my boyfriend even went near to a gay bar was when his close friend suggested they go to Soi 4 to see what it was like. Both boys are cute and they chose to sit at the bar. Soon an elderly farang came over and asked how much they would charge if he took both of them off for the night. They were shocked and quickly left. When he told me later, I said the way to get rid of unwanted advances was very simple. Just tell them, "You can't afford us. It's Bt. 20,000 for the night - each!"
