A 21 year old Thai Man was arrested by officers from the Police Region 2 Child and Women Protection Unit on Wednesday afternoon in East Pattaya, accused of providing underage boys to foreign patrons situated in Soi Sunee Plaza, South Pattaya.

 

The suspect would provide the boys, for a fee, and they would provide sexual services for the foreigners in return.

 

Khun Boonchoi aged 21 was arrested at his house in Soi Neun Plub Wan just after 1.30pm on the strength of an arrest warrant which confirmed he is accused of providing boys, under the age of 15 to foreign patrons for the purpose of sexual services, in exchange for money.

 

It is thought Khun Boonchoi has been providing the illegal service since early last year. He confessed and will appear in Court to answer to a judge in due course.

I read everything you wrote and the article in the paper, but I fail to see any news.  Just sound like business as usual for Pattaya, or is the news story that the alleged pimp claims to be only 21?

He certainly looks nearer 45! All the threads I've read on other sites about Sunee Plaza of late have indicated that this sort of dreadful business had been stamped out. Clearly not!

Well, I think for the most part it is stamped out in the bars but I doubt it will ever be stamped out in the street. There are less street kids roaming around but it seems that many have found other ways to meet up with potential money.

 

Sunee Plaza is cleaned up more now that in the entire time I have been traveling to Thailand. That is a good thing and I am glad most of the bars are also keeping pace with this change.
