if they try to arrest every one who attempts to sell us things in Patts then they are going to need way more police and jails.

 

But then again, with a fine of 100 baht each it could be a nice little money spinner.

 

Especially if they round up all the fucken Indian tailors around the place.

 

Will take the pressure off the girls on Beach Road too.

Bouncers beating, stabbing and sometimes killing customers, bill padding, sexual assaults by ladyboys are still all ok right?
