Having been there more than a few times, I can say with some certainity that they know exactly who they’re after: men who would like to get up close and personal with young Myanmar dancers.

I believe this is particularly true with otherwise straight guys. They’re usually more likely to feel free to act on impulse once door is closed with customer. There are, of course, exceptions but I like to take one at a time because of satisfactory success rate. I view it this way. If they choose to share their experience with coworkers, i benefit because they’re now aware what I’m looking for. If they don’t then it’s just between us and that’s fine, too.

From Khaosod English A violent altercation in Phuket’s nightlife district has sparked widespread online criticism after video footage emerged showing foreign tourists fleeing from transgender individuals before a physical confrontation. Police Lieutenant Pongpipat Khamchoomphoo, Deputy Inspector of Patong Police Station, reported that the incident occurred in the early hours of March 5 on Bangla Road. The conflict began when 4-5 transgender women confronted two Thai women, Wilaiporn, 21, and Sunisa, 23, accusing them of stealing Israeli clients. When Israeli tourists Nathan and Ofir attempted to intervene, they became entangled in the dispute with the transgender group. Video shows the chaotic fight that ensued, with the tourists running away on the road pursued by the transgender women. Both parties sustained injuries before the transgender group fled the scene. Emergency responders provided first aid to the tourists before transferring them to Patong Hospital. Authorities later identified and summoned three transgender individuals – Suwicha, 20, Apisit, 28, and Siwaphum, 29 – to acknowledge charges of public disturbance, which carries a maximum fine of 5,000 baht. The tourists were also charged with the same offense.offense.

When they’re not on stage for rotation, it’s not unusual to find some Fresh Boy performers hanging outside second-floor entrance to bar, where they retreat to warm up or have a smoke. It’s not necessary to ascend the main staircase to access the area. Instead, look for stairway on right side of PP2 (coming from direction of Foodland) as you approach French Kiss restaurant. That will take you by Hot Male’s outside bar and entrance to FB will soon follow.

From The Thaiger A Thai dancer had a terrifying brush with death after suffering a severe shockmid-performance at a temple in Kamphaeng Phet. The culprit? A mystery drink laced with a sexual stimulant, handed to him by a member of the audience. The official Facebook page of the Mor Lam performance band, หมอลำใจเกินร้อย(Mor Lam Jai Kern Roi, meaning over 100% spirit Mor Lam band), provided an update on the condition of the male dancer, Warayuth Somsanook, yesterday, March 5. According to the page, Warayuth suffered a shock after consuming the drink provided by a member of the audience. The suspect handed a glass of alcohol to the victim in front of the stage and urged to drink it in exchange for a reward. The drink was not pure alcohol but it had been mixed with sexual stimulants. The amount of the substance was beyond what the human body could tolerate, causing Warayuth to lose consciousness on stage. Fortunately, he received medical treatment in time. The performance on the day of the incident took place at Thung Sanin Temple in Kamphaeng Phet. The temple’s monks condemned the suspect on social media, with some locals also believing that the suspect intended to damage the reputation of both the temple and the Mor Lam band. The monks stated that the suspect was an LGBTQIA+ individual wearing a white T-shirt. ThaiRath reported that the temple is now gathering evidence to take legal action against the person. https://thethaiger.com/news/national/thai-dancer-shocked-after-drink-spiked-with-sexual-stimulant

Will have to be one hell of a pyramid.

If you take boy away from bar, do not be surprised if he has to reimburse bar 500 per day for his absence. Boys who leave FB for more than three days without paying off fee lose their number and have to reapply for job when they return.

From The Thaiger A high-speed tuk tuk race on a Bangkok road ended in a devastating crash, leaving three people seriously injured, including one driver with a severe head injury. The incident, which occurred late last night, March 3, sparked a policeinvestigation, with officers awaiting blood alcohol test results. The collision happened around 10pm on Ratchadaphisek Road in Chong Nonsi, Yannawa district, according to Police Lieutenant Colonel Thiradej Sonklin of Bang Phong Phang Police Station. Eyewitnesses reported that two tuk tuks were speeding side by side, attempting to overtake each other in what appeared to be a dangerous street race. As one driver made a risky lane change, the vehicle was struck by the other tuk tuk, causing it to flip over. https://thethaiger.com/news/bangkok/bangkok-tuk-tuk-race-ends-in-crash-3-injured

From Pattaya News Thailand, March 4th, 2025 — Digital Economy Minister Prasert Chantraruangthong, chair of the National Alcohol Policy Committee, announced proposed amendments to Thailand’s alcohol laws, aligning them with the Amazing Thailand Grand Tourism and Sports Year 2025 campaign. While the ban on alcohol sales during five major Buddhist holidays remains—Makha Bucha, Visakha Bucha, Asalha Bucha, Buddhist Lent, and End of Buddhist Lent—exceptions will apply to international airport terminals, licensed entertainment venues, hotels, and designated tourist areas approved by the Public Health Ministry. The committee is also studying electronic alcohol sales regulations to assess feasibility and impact. The existing sales restrictions remain in place due to legal constraints under Revolutionary Decree No. 253. A 15-day public consultation will be held online before the final proposal is submitted for approval, with the goal of implementing the changes before Visakha Bucha Day on May 11th, 2025, remarked Minister Prasert. TPN media notes this is only a proposal and it is still unclear where exactly the exceptions will apply. https://thepattayanews.com/2025/03/04/thailand-eases-alcohol-ban-on-buddhist-holidays-in-select-locations/

Have been to this shop three times before it moved to its present location a short distance away, it’s well managed with very clean facilities. What impresses me most, however, is that it has retained six of the guys who were working there during my last visit just prior to Covid: Yod, Zee, Wit, Min, Tum and Pae. I remember Pae as being a skilled and attentive therapist. This is a quite popular local shop in a busy urban area just this side of the Chao Phraya and within easy walking distance of MRT Bang Pho stop. A search for information on “Kasai” massage frequently returns hits for “Karsai.” Typically, a Karsai Nei Tsang session is preceded by a Chi Nei Tsang Abdominal massage treatment, slowly moving in deeper into the genital area. In fact, Mantak Chia, the founder of Karsai Nei Tsang, claimed that one can only become a first-rate Karsai therapist with years of extensive preceding training and practical experience in Chi Nei Tsang. On the whole, one could say that Karsai Nei Tsang aims at resolving health issues associated with the sexual organs and sexuality, such as premature ejaculation, problems having or maintaining an erection, fertility problems, prostate problems, menopause discomforts, ovarian cysts, menstrual disorders, painful sexual intercourse, scar tissue in the genital region, and low sexual libido. https://www.traditionalbodywork.com/health-benefits-of-karsai-nei-tsang-genital-detox-massage/

Will serve you well to keep that in mind. 😏

You, @unicorn, are the essence of arrogance, the king of conceit, the depth of vanity. And I say that with all emotion and rancor.

Because they’re based on a western bias. And I say that without emotion or rancor.

Yet no one has indicated approval of your positions.

From The Thaiger Chaos erupted for Pakistani travellers after they found themselves marooned in Bangkok for two long days after technical issue with a Thai Airways flight. In a maddening turn of events, passengers were left in suspense for six gruelling hours at Suvarnabhumi International Airport in Bangkok, clinging to the hope of an alternative flight. Those hopes were dashed, however, when Thai Airways abruptly pulled the plug and cancelled the flight, leaving passengers in a state of disarray and despair. ARY News reported that the airline sought to patch things up by whisking passengers away to a hotel, albeit a tedious hour-and-a-half jaunt from the airport. Unfortunately, the less-than-ideal hotel facilities only heaped more misery onto the beleaguered travellers. As if that wasn’t enough, the airline’s reported bungling also caused many passengers to miss crucial connecting flights, throwing travel plans into complete disarray. With their patience worn thin, the stranded Pakistanis have raised their voices, appealing to Pakistani authorities for urgently needed assistance. The drama in Bangkok has yet to be resolved with passengers still grounded and frustrated. https://thethaiger.com/news/bangkok/thai-plane-shame-pakistanis-stranded-in-bangkok-bust-up-video

From Channel News Asia KUALA LUMPUR: After a dormant decade, calls for a new naval base in a sleepy town in Sarawak have gathered steam in recent weeks, with Malaysia potentially eyeing a more assertive stance against Chinese pressure in resource-rich areas near the Borneo state. But in building Malaysia’s latest naval base in Bintulu, closer to the disputed waters in the South China Sea, analysts believe Putrajaya will still steer clear of stirring up the hornet’s nest. Malaysia is unlikely to adopt more aggressive responses to Chinese vessel incursions, they told CNA, given its overarching aim to maintain its low-key approach to the maritime territorial claims and preserve its lucrative economic ties with Beijing. China, currently embroiled in its own scuffles with the Philippines in the same strategic waterways farther north, will also be keen to keep its ties with Malaysia on an even keel, hoping to alienate Manila from other Southeast Asian claimant states, the analysts said. Dr Collin Koh, a senior fellow at Singapore’s S Rajaratnam School of International Studies, said the Sarawak naval base would not alter China-Malaysia ties as long as the Malaysian government continues to keep a “non-megaphone” approach to the dispute. “The naval base and potentially increased Malaysian maritime presence in the area may come across as a nuisance to Beijing, but that’s just it,” he told CNA. “End of the day, it’s the political demeanour in Kuala Lumpur, not what’s happening on the ground with Malaysia’s naval buildup in Borneo, that seems to be the key determinant in overall relationship with Beijing.” According to the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, a country retains exclusive rights to the exploration and exploitation of natural resources in its EEZ, defined as waters extending up to 200 nautical miles (370km) immediately offshore.

Most of guys at FB are what I’ve come to refer to as “Bangkok straight.” They may prefer girls but know that their income depends on their ability to provide a satisfying experience for male customers. They are my favorite type of guys. I think you’ve already discovered that putting them at ease early on reaps dividends.

And no one ever complains about their accommodations.

What a coincidence, DOA. You showed up on the scene here AFTER Covid. 🤗 Wow. That certainly sounds like speculation by any measure. 😅 Thanks for mimicking my conclusion. 🤗

Discuss your expectations with guy in bar before agreeing to off. If he has no English or you otherwise cannot communicate with translator, ask assistance from mamasan. I agree with @Olddaddy that many boys will want to leave without breakfast. But some will be happy to stay. Feel free to discuss that with boy before offing, also.
