My regular vendors (non-sexual) are telling me things are slow and are hoping for a late start of high season next month. They tell me things are slower than they were this time last year. Anecdotal evidence for sure, but I don't see what this guy sees:
[QUOTE=Explorer8939;2956254]I took a taxi from Pratumnak to Khao Talo and back last night. Unfortunately, traffic in Pattaya is getting jammed up because there are too many people on the roads.[/QUOTE]Quite the opposite. I am on the Baht (did I spell that right) Bus traveling from Jomtien to Central Pattya all the time. The usual crowds that fill the Baht Bus are not there. I am still having to wait for the Baht Bus to fill up on Second Street for the return trip. Even during the business hours. I am not seeing a crush of tourists in my favorite eating spots nor in the mall. But hey, what do I know. I'm a new poster.

Yes you may be correct. But it may be due to current war situation in middle East.

[QUOTE=EverythingThai;2956356]Maybe you have not seen the recent news about China. The stock market there took a huge dive and many people lost everything. Factories closing left right and center and rich Chinese have lost everything. For me I agree but exclude China.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=EverythingThai;2956277]YOU DO NOT LIVE HERE SO YOU DON'T KNOW THE TRUE REALITY.
[/QUOTE]I have spent half my life in Thailand. I also worked there for a time.
What exactly do you want to tell me about Thailand now? The woman in your video is not representative of the entire country. The video was made by people who have never been to Thailand themselves. I know hundreds of videos like this. But that is not the reality.
I have been living with a Thai woman for 14 years. And I will spend the next 20 years with her until I die. I love her.
What exactly do you want to tell me about Thailand now? Are you starting inflation again now?
[QUOTE=EverythingThai;2956277]One last point. If you hate Pattaya so much, you do not need to come here. You do not need to post here. You are free to find another area to spend your money.[/QUOTE]I don't hate Pattaya. Did I say that? All I'm saying is that the girls there are rip off. I have an apartment outside Pattaya. I currently spend half my life in Thailand and the other half in Europe. In 2 years I will completely emigrate to Thailand. I don't hate Pattaya. You misunderstood something.

I had no idea you were in a committed 14 year relationship with a Thai lady. Let me know when you start to report on mongering and we can compare notes about Pattaya mongering. Until then, I am not sure what you are doing here. Take care and sorry.

[QUOTE=EverythingThai;2956319]You may find that this year, it may not be necessary for you to bail because of high season. Why? Because this year, high season will be a big disappointment. Yes, many of the guys are coming back, but those guys will stay for shorter periods of time because inflation in the west is killing many people. Then there are the the guys that can't afford to come this year. The US punters who are worried about their cash flow and the results of the election next month. My prediction for Pattaya is that the place is rammed right now with girls and there are still not enough punters to go around. The top girls will still make money, but alas, the rest will just get by or dare I say it, even won't be able to survive. Look at Soi 6 bars right now. Look at the gents clubs, such as Club Fate. Look at the go go bars. The bar owners are stacking up on girls for high season, but there still won't be enough punters to go around. This high season, only the top go go bars, only the top freelancers, only the consistent gents clubs, only the good beer bars will survive. Another indication of a disappointing high season in Pattaya is the amount of live streams that are going on. The girls and bar owners alike are using these live streams to subsidize their incomes because there are more girls in preparation for high season, but not enough punters. I have even seen some freelancers open their own live streams because of this. This high season will be shorter, as it will start later and finish earlier. Walking street will be busy on weekends, as well as Soi 6, but there will be no consistent flow of customers on a daily basis this high season. A lot of bars will go under after this high season. Why? Many bar owners have put their livelihoods on the line. They should not of even opened a bar unless they have a good cash flow to support themselves. I have seen new bars open and close in a matter of only a few weeks because the owner has no operating capital.
In summary Explorer. If you like Pattaya, I would not go anywhere this year. Your regular girls will not disappear like you think and the ones that do will return a lot quicker than before. This high season in Patts will be a pussy fest. That's my prediction. A guy with your skills will be picking up the left overs for next to nothing and these leftovers will be a lot of pretty hot and sexy girls.[/QUOTE]The ladies in my rotation are saying there is an uptick in customers now. And there is a shortage of new ladies coming to Pattaya.
The fly in the ointment is the excess of bars in Pattaya.
And there is definitely a lot more visitors in Thailand now. Last month, Suvarnabhumi had one Immigration hall open with short lines, this week, 2 halls were open with long lines.

[B]ROTFLMO[/B][/QUOTE]A note of agreement with ET and SC from me in Phuket.
The high season is starting very very slowly, in fact the worst I have seen it here in Phuket over the last 10 years.
There is a lot of gloom and doom talk around the farang businesses I deal with (diving, restaurants, etc), as well as in the services areas (bars, massage).
But in typical Thai fashion, the Thais I know are just hanging on and waiting for those days when there is a silver lining of good income, which are now fewer and further in between.
Recession / Inflation? Who really knows as I watch Bloomberg each night to check the market and my portfolio there are pro and cons, we have heard the soft landing theory?
Recession in 2020, what I do know from my own portfolio of my Mutual Fund Bear or Bull market there are flat spot but it continues to more upward this year as it near to end, the projection based on my RMD 6%, it is at 17% overall.
I don't pay any attention to whether it is High or Low season just as I don't pay a lot of attention to what others pay or don't pay, as to the looks of girls, or as to how I get my haircut. LOL.
Living here all these years first preference is my true blue Honda PCX motorbike of ten plus years logging just over 140,000 KM, I know the roads if traffic is heavy I take alternatives do as many Thais do to get where I need even if I go down one way, under or overtake, the big difference I do it SAFELY AND SLOWLY going up a sidewalk I have no problem guess if I wasn't so Thai looking I would be on Asean news Farang reckless driving. LOL.
Traffic 101 LBM!
When it comes to traffic posting is very heavy high season, another no it isn't? Whenever I come from Darkside into town this time of year I get to Sukhumvit and Pattaya Klang at the night if traffic is back up at a stand still if I didn't pay attention to the calendar to events then I know Beach Road is a mess due to some event, Music festival, soon fireworks, Loy Krathong, what the cops do they have no experience in traffic management they block off the road at Klang and 2nd road closing off Beach Road requiring vehicle to detour stretching the volume out to other location.
So although it is high season requiring vehicle to traffic further would make it seems it is high season.
Then you got 3rd Road heading to Klang always a back up, with the tour buses heading out it would make it seem high season again but no so, without a computer traffic system they set the light going north at this intersection even with the high volume of vehicle at 15 second tops giving priority to traffic that is back up from Sukhumvit and Klang top priority. You sit at this intersection even no cars are coming they still have the green. Those who know on bikes clear run the light or take the side roads. Personally, I weave through the cars even drive on the otherside of orange cones of on coming traffic but I do it slow and safely if there is such a thing.
You talk about P-Hill to Darkside using Khao Talo, You come up Theppasit traffic is heavy at the Jomtien outlet complex with the large market which is open now daily, preference like always given to cars on Sukhumvit so they can travel so fast it kills them. Then poorly design the road leading into Khao Talo you got a two lane right turn that flows into one at the end there is what is know as the Railroad Bypass, Thailand no one has a clue as to what right of way is so everyone won't give you a time of day like most traffic bottlenecks here in Pattaya it is ALL self inflicted cause they lock themselves up at the tracks where no one can move reason MOTORBIKE!
This happens at 3-4 of the intersection that is above ground where the trains travels so several times of the day the traffic is at an standstill do to closure allowing the trains to run through the city, it will get worse and worse since next to the train will travel the bullet train when it comes. Right now, North to South of the Railroad bypass, Chopiwithi, Soi Siam, Soi Khao Noi, Soi Khao Talo will be even worse since these roads must be close when the train comes through since more and more are moving East.
If your Motorbike taxi, Grab, Bolt, is they don't live live on the Darkside would never use the main roads to get you to Khao Talo.
Bottleneck at khao Talo is very common no matter what season!
Touched down in BKK after the grueling fight from Arizona-taxi to Ayutthaya to spend the first night away from the busy city. Really enjoyed this. After walking around exploring temples and sweating my bawls off I stopped for a haircut (100 tbh) and taxi to Discovery Beach Hotel. Exhausted as all hell but can't sleep being so close to the six, so I made my way down. As always my favorite from Roxy bar had day off, so I cruise down and got pulled in by a girl from cooters. I have a hard time saying no. 29 years old with 2 kids but really nice body, perky A -be cup size boobies, really cute ass, And pretty face. Buy her a few lady drinks and she keeps grabbing at ham noi. I said be careful you're going to wake him up. She said 1,000 BF and 2000 for 2 hours (less for the rooms upstairs) Mai pen rai. I liked how hard rock you can come in from beach road and skip having the ladies leave their I. The-Discovery you can't get around it. This girl was very playful. I'm a small guy like 140 lbs and she was strong. She started BBBJ right away!! Cowgirl then she rolled over for missionary. I was beyond tired from walking all morning and the flight but wow she was fun. I got to try to use what Thai I've learned from the Ling app which made the encounter even better. She wanted round two but I just couldn't!! I don't drink but she forced to try a sip of her tequila- definitely not watered down. She was kind of rough and even bit me kind of hard a few times though but I'll probably go back for round two in a few days. And it's not hot as hell here in Pattaya today which is a bonus.
I normally don't venture to Kinnaree on a Sat, but due to family and friends in town what the heck. 13:30 place was already main room packed it is popular baby back, beef brisket day, you spend 1100 on drinks BF, the 450 tab on food is free. Food is optional!
Being end of month, rent due most popular food day lots of new girls best lineup I've seen for a long time along with regulars. Negative best food days packed girl push price to 1500ST.
Stepped into sexy to buy some drinks for a girl I wanted to meet. She was totally uninterested so I strolled down further. So hard to choose. Sat down at mods bar with a pretty nice looking lady and played some games of jenga- asked if she was available for bar fine. Same deal as cooters -500 for room 1,500 for lady. Sure it's a deal. Headed to my room and she stops" can not go here. Only 20 why /0 ! Apparently discovery doesn't allow 18 - didn't even know she was that young. So I settled for st room. Body incredible. Such a great booty. Took her to the night market and got her some food after. Still not ready to call it a night wanted to check out some agogos. It's only my second trip to Pattaya and I've never been to an agogo. Unable to find Sapphire I tried pin-ups. Holy shit. Sooo many beautiful ladies. Kind of weird having so much staff looking at you all the time though. Bought a few drinks for two little beauties who were very fun and flirty. Said BF was 2000 . Already at my nightly budget I sadly walked away. Wish I would've went there first. Tomorrow staying on koh larn to rest and recharge for the last 4 days in Pattaya.
Sapphire, just off Soi 15, corner is the Ice Bar? Where the poplar Bear at window, otherside is now Burger King.

Most bars had no customers. It was a Monday. So, I think my prediction is right. During the week, bars are very slow. Weekends they are busy. LK metro last night was dead, but still many ladies.
