No normal tourist is itching to go to Thailand because of Pattaya. Most of these group people happen upon it simply because it was a cheap place for the tour operator to include with its close proximity to Bangkok.

Godfather, Kamnan Poh, had his youngest son installed as mayor and another son was Cultural Minister in Yingluck's government. The kickbacks from Walking must be enormous. A little uncertainty can act as a lubricant for the grease. Seems he recently received a Royal Pardon for his murder sentence. That should send the junta a pretty strong message about who his friends are.

[QUOTE=Adrena;2018950]Don't worry about Soi 6 or LK Metro until you see tourist buses pull up. WS hasn't been good since the Chinese showed up in herds.[/QUOTE]We have to worry about LK Metro and Soi 6 because the military junta have ideas about changing all of Pattaya into a family destination. They want to get rid of the sex venues; and take all the sex out of Walking Street, etc. They're too stupid and obtuse to realize that they can have it both ways if they play it right.
There are plenty of venues for families -- Water Park, crocodile farm, tiger zoo, Nong Nooch Gardens, beaches, shopping malls, go cart tracks, and on and on. Walking Street is not a good place for families and kids and it won't be even if the go-go bars are gone and if that happens Pattaya will suffer economically. If the junta has their way Pattaya will become a ghost town.
I don't see families going to Soi 6, 7 & 8, Soi Buakhao, and LK Metro. The Chinese herds don't go there either. Yet Those herds see Walking Street as a novelty. They go to the go-go bar in swarms, drink one beer and leave as a swarm. I Never see them by drinks for girls much less bar fine them. They're a pain in the ass to us mongers, but they spend money on hotel rooms and restaurants and in that way support the economy. I just wish that the military bozos would get out of the business of government so we can finally get back to normal.

The tourists who are not mongering come to gawk at the girls and the bright lights. What else is there to do? Discos? Restaurants?
Hopefully they will give up once they realize that this will virtually eliminate any Tea money they can collect. Not to mention the damage it will do to the economy in Issan and other poorer regions.

Thank you very much for your response. I fully understand the PM things, out of personal principal I don't use the Ignore I just ignore. To be honest you have nothing to be second guessing yourself regarding your English. That is why I thought I had said something in the past which might have offended you that cause you to make such a statement because like you I never had a problem with any of your posting. In fact, if I could write as well as you even on your worst day I would be proud of myself. There are a number of guys like yourself, Goatscot, etc. That can write long or short reports and state their point clearly. These days I rarely post not that I'm staying home but pretty much don't have much to add from the guys on their holidays. This might sound funny but I'm not only reading but look at how it should be properly written although it is a sex forum.
Agree or disagree my apologize for going a bit off.

The future of Pattaya
Please, gentlemen, spend spend spend and help the barkeeps' tills brimming with tea money to keep the place going and the lights on (or dimmed). At least through early May, when I get my ill-deserved six nights in Pattaya. Let us hope that the junta is not so foolish as to cut off a major revenue stream, the goose that laid the. You know. Those Chinese tourists would have scant interest in Walking Street (or prolly any other part of Pattaya, save the agogos; and rest assured that soon -- very soon -- they will shed their dowdy second halves and do battle royale to supplant the Japanese as the next 3-3-3 crowd. Clamp down on the sex trade? Well, let's see how condos sell in Jomtien when there's nothing but the skinflinty Russkies left. Without the girls, Pattaya (I don't even like to dip my toes into the water there) is little more than AC with a toxic shoreline. Reports of imminent death are premature. I love the place to death. Yet love is fickle, and let's hope the dummies don't blow it. And yet there seems to be an ingrained national deficiency of logic. Like the on again-off again gogo girl on my FB who bitches to high heaven about the Aussie sponsor who cut her off, and not at all about the Thai and the Frenchman who fathered her children, and fail to pay child support.

Does it really have anything much outside of hookers in Walking Street zone?
I have heard of plenty of guys holidaying in Pattaya, without any intention to use hookers, but why? Maybe I am far too old to understand. I understand Thais going there due to easy proximity to Bangkok, but surely there are so many more beautiful beech destinations in Thailand. Is the nightlife still exciting if not interacting with hookers? I also remember years ago, Thais liking Pattaya because it's a wild place where they don't have to be prim and proper, however girls are not so prim and proper any more in Bangkok. Lots of very provocative dressing by girls these days.
Maybe it's the wrong place to ask, but what are the non-hooker highlights of South Pattaya? Is the beech there usable these days?
If I wanted a beech resort with beautiful nature, I would recommend, Krabi, Koh Phi Phi, Koh Lipe & Adang, Koh Samui in February. Amazing Crystal Calcite cave Tham Kaew Komol in Mae La Noi (Mae Hong Son province). That will make you forget all limestone caves. Ancient Ruins in several locations. Amazing waterfalls in several provinces, temples, etc. Lots of interesting places to go in Thailand, for non sexual purposes.
Trying to make Pattaya respectable seems ridiculous. Thailand should just concentrate on getting rid of girl trafficking reputations, girls on contract, and that other special forbidden category. Teach girls more to reduce quantities of single mothers. However nothing wrong with girls making money by selling sex.

Well said Syzygiz.
If they get rid of Walking Street bars and all the other sex workers Pattaya will be finished. It has the dirtiest and most polluted beach in Thailand and pretty much next to nothing to bring tourists to the city. No visitors no money- no money no chance to fill the multitude of hotels and shopping malls. Surely the people in power got there through the tea money system and still have their beaks in the trough- surely they will not want to see the end of the gravy train?

My First Report
A few days ago I returned from a 4 day trip to the LOS, and over the next few days I intend to write some reports on my experiences. I have been a long time reader of this website but have, up until now, never bitten the bullet and posted anything myself. I was a selfish sponge like creature sucking up the tips and recommendations of other gentlemen on this board, yet I never gave anything back in return. Following this trip I decided to write down my experiences, I did this in order that I could recollect my experiences in the future (in previous trips the memories of my experiences have, over time, somewhat faded and I didn't want this to happen on this occasion). Also, writing these reports acts as a kind of anesthesia to the dull, numbing pain that goes with no longer being in that wonderful haven, that gentleman's paradise, that wacky, anything goes city of sin we call. Pattaya.
Day 1:
I left Shanghai and took the short 4 hour flight to Bangkok early in the morning. I had pre booked a car to take me directly to Pattaya as I couldn't be arsed with fannying around with buses or negotiating with taxi drivers. The traffic on the road was terrible and it took 4 hours to get to my hotel located on Second road between soi 6 and 7.
Originally this trip was to have been a lads holiday as part of a series of leaving parties, but, for various reasons everyone else had pulled out and I was left alone. Whilst initially annoyed (I had even thought about cancelling the trip myself) I thought it might be quite an exciting adventure doing this trip alone for the first time, doing and going where I wanted rather than following the group.
Upon arrival my original plan was to have a quick nap to save some energy for the long night ahead, but after a few fruitless attempts to get my head down, I knew it was never going to happen and I headed out to see where the early evening would take me.
After a few warm up beers in various watering holes I decided I was lubricated enough to head down to Soi 6 (I have never had the nerve to go there stone cold sober). I initially wondered, would it be the same as on past trips because of all the recent clampdowns?. Once I stepped off the Baht bus and walked its hallowed ground my fears were allayed, I immediately knew it was everything I remembered it being – bright, brash, exciting, full on, a little overwhelming but ultimately the most amazing street in the world.
I stuck my head in a few bars, and handed out a few LDs, but nothing was really hooking me in. They were either too young, too old, too drunk, too boring, too fat etc etc. I was going on my final lap of the street when out of the cacophony of cat calls one pierced my ear drums loud enough for me to pay attention. Her name was Fon, and I'm sorry gents but I forget the name of the bar she was in. What I do remember is that she, and her colleagues were all wearing sexy, slutty nurses outfits. She pulled me in and I immediately bought her a drink. She then proceeded to tell me all the things she was going to do to me. Fon was an ex gogo dancer but moved to soi 6 as she said she was too lazy to dance. Facially, she had some acne but her makeup covered it well and in the darkness of the bar you didn't really notice. She had a spinner's body with the tiniest waist you could ever imagine. She told me all the positions she wanted me to do her in, doggystyle being her favorite (Where she said her tiny waist was an asset, as I could grab onto it for extra thrust). Without further adieu we were quickly up the stairs where Fon put her range of techniques to work. She certainly didn't disappoint and she was as filthy as she said she would be. The problem was. And I have no idea why. The problem was. I couldn't come. Fon worked me and worked me with all her considerable talent and skill but it just wasn't happening. I ended up accepting defeat and told her to stop. My sex kitten of a companion seemed a little put out, but had ultimately had been paid (1000 for her, 350 for the room) so she wasn't too upset by it. I left soi 6 thinking and hoping that this wasn't going to be the story of my long anticipated trip.
I was still relatively happy though, as I had had a great experience with Fon and it was a very good session. It was around midnight when I made my way down soi 7, I was feeling pretty tired from the day of travelling and was going to call it a night but stopped into Pandora for one last nightcap. I was approached by ZeZe and whilst initially reluctant to entertain her, she seemed nice enough so I got her a drink. A pretty faced Issan girl, 25 years old with 2 kids. She was quite voluptuous (probably a little too much so for my liking) and usually, I would not have carried on this encounter. However, I had made the mistake of buying her a drink and she had now latched on to me. Well. As is often the case (with me anyway) a few drinks later and after a few hours of games and chatting, I decided to pay her barfine (she said usually 800 b, but 500 b for me because I was nice and had spent money in the bar – probably bullshit but whatever). I was really tired at this point and wanted to take her back to my hotel but she wanted to take me to walking street for a dance. I should have probably been more insistent at the time but decided just to go with the flow (I'm weak and like that. One of my biggest flaws). Besides, I thought, a few more drinks would loosen her up a bit more, as this, in my experience often helps girls lose their inhibitions in the bedroom.
We had a good time dancing in Lucifer (there is a great live band that play on the ground level of the club. Highly recommended). And when we left I was ready for action. She then said she wanted to go eat. 'Jesus H Christ', I muttered to myself as I was now had the distinct feeling that I was being taken for a ride. I mulled it over for a bit, and decided that as I was hungry too I would go along with her request. She took me to some Issan barbeque / hot pot place a motorbike journey away. The food was alright, nothing I hadn't had many times before whist living in China.
We finally got back to the hotel (it must have been around 6.30 am at this point) and as ZeZe took a shower alone, the realization hit me that I had just procured a real, walking, talking starfish for the night. A few minutes later she lay on the bed and I went down to business. It turns out that I was mostly right, she was no Fon with regards her bedroom gymnastics, but she made all the right noises and movements so she wasn't a complete dud. The most important thing however my friends, is that I did indeed come. And my word, did I come. Like a violent volcano erupting for the first time, I was surprised the condom hadn't ripped open. This must have been a build up from earlier in the evening coupled with the fact I had abstained from any genital stimulation for at least 5 days previously. Even ZeZe was surprised by how much volume there was.
A few hours later after a heavy sleep my partner for the night left, I didn't go for a second shot as I didn't think she was really worth it. We never discussed money for services rendered, I gave her 2000 b (I'd spent a fuck load on her the night before so even that was being generous), to her credit she didn't even check and put it straight in her purse. I went back to sleep to recharge my batteries for another day of fun ahead.
So, overall impressions of day 1?. Fon was definitely the highlight, Soi 6 has once again outdone itself in terms of overall satisfaction and experience. My time later in the night could have probably been spent more wisely, but I still had a good and memorable night. The biggest downer however, is that I made a big rookie mistake. Despite me reading the tips from previous posters I still made the fatal error of hooking up with a girl on my first on the bar street nearest my hotel. This is fine if you want to go back for more, but as I didn't, I would now have to spend the rest of my trip avoiding Soi 7. It is a pain in the arse, as the street is only 3 minutes from my hotel and I hadn't really experienced it fully on my first night. Anyway. You live and learn. Lets see what day 2 has in store.

Nice first report

Good intel that the upstairs boom-boom is on offer on Soi 6 (about six weeks ago I had to take the girl across the street because the bar staff was scurrying around, removing laundry because of an impending raid they had been tipped off on; having to walk through a gaggle of ladyboys on the way up the stairs was a turnoff, to the point where I had to find reassurance that the room was stocked with feminine products, and the pussy had to get a close examination. Real, OK). As for the part about having to avoid a soi because a previous provider may be ensconced there looking for her next patron, well, walk the hell wherever you want. She, and you, both know why you're in Pattaya. And if you should decide to repeat with the lady later, feel free to spout some rubbish like "darling, I didn't want to take you last night (or the previous three) because, you know, I'm a romantic and I knew if I spent too much time with you I'd fall in love. ".
