Coconut bar raided again.

Bangkok police raided CB a few weeks after Pattaya earned some tea money.

Seems I might be coming to LOS at a good time, as I feel the climate is changing around the area of WS and BR areas.

Why do you think this will change anything? Beach road clearance operations happen with monotonous regularity. The hookers rounded up are charged with vagrancy, fined 100 baht and released back onto the streets unless they fail the drug test.☺

I doubt CB is going to stay as it is....Click

 

I feel this could be the start of a real clean up.

Las Vegas did it. It's still a party place, however no where near how it was a few decades ago.

Crap, wrong link was used... I'll find the one that was suppose to be there. Could take a while as I forget where I was. Okay changed the link I'll get back to the Chinese later. Basically I feel the Military if they stay in power will clean up the area and Puckett

a snippet from the article

This explanation says the takeover has placed the police, traditionally at odds with the military, in some sort of frenzy amidst proposed restructuring that is likely to deeply disrupt the way the police have operated — both formally and informally,” says Thai political analyst Saksith Saiyasombut.

Maybe, the term 'my girl's different' will take on a different meaning if that is the case!!! Bacardi breezer, anyone?55555

Thailand does not have the laws to clean this up.

Yes, that sums it up for me.

Beach Rd certainly is littered somewhat at night and I would be happy to see them removed, but it isn't just the chicks with pricks I am thinking of.

Chester that's a scary article.

Sounds somewhat like that King Power scam at BKK a few years ago.

Bit of a leap to link an article about police hassling tourists in Bangkok to a round up of mainly Thai 'vagrants' on Beach Road.

The power balance between the military and the police may have changed since the coup but the government has bigger problems to deal with than beach road.

As Misteregg pointed out the Thais do not have the legislation in place to deal with this issue. I would suggest that they have much higher priorities to deal with, such as implementing a new constitution, before taking further action on Beach Road where the problems mainly occur after midnight when there are fewer people around anyway.

Its easy enough to avoid walking along Beach Road at night, why put yourself at risk for the sake of a 10 baht baht bus ride or a c40 baht motorbike fare,

10 baht , I refuse to be a Loop I walk then wring the sweat out of my clothes thus saving on water , hang them up and they are dry in the morning ☺️

Fix it? They can't even fix the fucking footpath. I nearly ended up on my backside a couple of times two nights ago and I wasn't even looking at the FL and LBs.

I think it is more like Thailand, especially here in Pattaya, does not have the interest.

 

They make a bust or two to make the news and they look good, like they are against prostitution and doing something about it. Also a tool to line their pockets. After a 100 baht fine is paid they have done their jobs and release the lovely welcomers of the coconut bar back into the wild to do theirs. Almost quid pro pro
