Great backtracking by the group, wrong, but a good try.  They were probably right the first time. It will turn out to be one more place to avoid on my rare excursions into that City. Bit akin to that massive white elephant, Terminal 21. 

I'm not so sure that your assessment is correct.

 

I think in many ways regarding tourism Pattaya has turned the corma.

I love the idea that the passport office is staying, makes it a one stop shop, meet a BG, off to the ST hotel (presume there will be one) then up to the passport office and try and take her back home with you.

and a clinic for antibiotics and the whole thing is full circle.

and a Indian dance school to teach white dudes how to dance.

Thank the Gods that nobody has mentioned currying anyone's favor as that would be racist!

I demand to speak to the Boss-mati!

Oh, you mean that favourite English soap opera - Curry Nation Street.

Do all male customers supposed to hold each others hands?

[bendejo]

It should include one of those instant marriage places like they have in Las Vegas.  Guaranteed to generate some great stories.

Looking at the website the construction is starting raita way..

They only wanna hold their hands when they've bought a portion of fried Beatles between them.

Thought the plan was to change pattaya. How exactly does adding more bars change it ?

It is not a change, it is a private group taking the Indian trade for themselves.

So all the other bars will not benefit if the amount of Indian tourists increases.

Hmm, I think there could be a lot of very short short stories though.

Would that encourage you to visit a establishment more often cause your into that lifestyle ?

I bet this will be advertised in India as an Indian venue.

Will be a huge draw and I bet increase the Indian numbers.

I certainly won't go have not set foot in a Gogo for several years rip off buy me a drink fake over priced tourist traps.

Cheaper bar fines would go down well

i agree, i love the idea of beach road freelancer rates 500-900 bht short time, if the indians can match or make bar fines less than that it will be great for TAT and all of thailands economy.

Met a girl who intends to work there, she's a real daal...

I find it interesting to open a bar area when 47% of their population is muslim. I thought muslims can't drink alcohol?

oh yes and of course the running around and singing bits.

[uncleeagle]

The bar fine has to go negative for me, because these days I am the relatively good looking one and most of the bar “girls” have gotten fat and old...I now tell them what my bar fine is.

[Ron jeremy]

They can’t get talent in most places at the moment. Add all these bars???

they also said they HOPE the low rent will bring down prices

good luck, but without talent, it’s doomed 

period!

[Dexlowe]

This is sure to be a Goa head place

To be fair, their current venue's don't have many Indians, if any.

 

As to cheap beer, that's easy, you just have to argue for 45 minutes.  ????

They walk across the southern border town at night get drunk go short time smoke ciggs and walk back across the border innocent

[Beggar]

A brave business man has rented this place for 9 years and tries to get a return on his investment. Nothing special. I find it a great idea and Indians are often very good in doing business. For sure much better than many farangs who are sitting in their own bar every night as their only customer.

If its 50 baht a beer, 200 bar fine and no more than a grand for a girl all night that does more than look at her phone....may be worth a visit...

That would keep the Indian groups off the streets

[fredob43]

Joking aside. I was unlucky enough to spend 2 nights in Pattaya 3 weeks ago. Went passed the newish Tree Town in Soi B not 1 punter in any of the bars. Would like to ask where are they the punters going to come from???
