Police were called to the Lucky Star bar on Walking Street on Monday after a Korean tourist refused to pay his 225 baht bar bill.

 

Bar staff were forced to contact police after the man, who they said was drunk, became abusive when presented with the bill.

 

The man claimed he hadn’t had anything to drink and wouldn’t be handing over 225 baht.

The man who was still being abusive to staff when the Tourist Police arrived eventually admitted that he had something to drink and that the bill was indeed his.

 

He eventually paid the bill and went on his way.

 

The incident was shared on the Pattaya City Facebook page.

I once thought that I got short changed in a 7-11 but after a discussion with the cashier we realised that the item was labeled with the wrong price, so I paid the extra 2 Baht that it cost and went on my way.

 

Should my incident have its own thread or is this news too hot to handle.

Many of the problems existing in this lawless town are:

 

1. The selling or serving alcohol to people that appear intoxicated.

2. No liability for people who sell/serve alcohol to people that appear intoxicated. (See 4.).

3. Lack of training to people who sell/serve alcohol as to how to identify people who appear to be intoxicated.

4. Corruption.

5. Pathetic consequences if one causes trouble when intoxicated. (See 4.).

 

There are those that may say, that these are the reasons to drink; to become falling down drunk, soil your pants with urine and feces, passout at bars or on the street, pick fights, become victims because of an inability to make wise decisions and on and on.

 

The bar scene in Pattaya is run by corruption, greed and ignorance. Where else can you drink yourself into oblivion, passout as the bar, wakeup and carry on? Certainly not in the home countries of many of the drunkards roaming and driving scooters hereabouts.

Looking at the image of the bill, the total should have been 135 baht + 95 baht = 230 Baht.  He may have been in shock from being undercharged!

I have always wanted to know.....why must it be a secret what they look like?

If they can not be shown why use their 'photograph' at all?

Because of the extremely liberal defamation law in Thailand. Telling the verifiable truth about someone can still get you sued.

130 baht  (aud $6)for a lousy beer. Probably flat too.

Thats alot of money for a so called budget tourist destination.

Plus a few lady drinks and and its easy to see why farangs end up destitute in LOS.

How  much is a bargirl now?

Used to be 500-800 baht. That's all their worth .imho
