Gaybutton Posted September 15, 2006 Posted September 15, 2006 I'm very glad to see that the police intend to 'clean up' Beach Road. Tourists are too often harrassed by prostitutes, thieves, pickpockets, gangs, etc. I am, however, skeptical. This is not exactly the first time we've heard all about how the Beach Road situation is going to be cleaned up. The usual thing that occurs is all of the problems really are cleaned up. The trouble is, it never seems to take long for the momentum to subside and everything to return to its former state. We'll see what happens this time and how long it lasts. The following appears in the PATTAYA CITY NEWS: _____ Tourist Police to Provide Increased Security for Pattaya Beach Khun Ronagit, Deputy Mayor of Pattaya chaired this further meeting regarding safety for tourists on Pattaya Beach, following recent high profile cases of violence against foreigners and further problems with prostitutes who base themselves on Pattaya Beach around the clock.
