Sontaya is the son of the Chon Buri's deceased mafia big boss, the city has literally been in a relatively stable hiatus since he got "elected" as a mayor. Honestly; when was the last time you've been drugged or mugged in Pattaya since his "election"?

When was the last time you've been shaken down by the local gangs since his "election"? When was the last time the PWA administration or the Pattaya Teedin office asked for a bribe since his "election"? And guess why Pattaya is a very safe city besides being a very seedy city? Because of the Kunplome family and Sontaya being "in charge". Basically it takes a radical crook to control all of crooks. Nothing happens in the city without his seal of approval.

Sontaya Kunplome, believe it or not, is the best mayor we have had in years and I hope for everyone's safety, including yours, he stays mayors for the years to come. What on Earth are you on about There are people sleeping rough on the streets. During Covid he has made quite a few declarations only to be slapped down by the Provincial governor I have never been mugged or drugged in Pattaya.

Never shaken down. Never asked for a bribe. Not since his election, nor prior to it. You need to get put more If you think you have it bad now, well Pattaya is neither a Disneyland for adults nor the Family Friendly Resort some may want it to be. I have lived here a while now and first came here around It seems that unfortunately he's forgotten it's not upto him but upto his superior Muppets in Bangkok. Curfew lifted and calendar turned a page, but it's just as "open" as last month.

You really think anyone takes him seriously? Politician's promises the world over are taken with a grain of salt today but in Thailand no-one listens to them in the first place except for a laugh lol! And when, or if, the Tourists return in any great numbers, the low life will crawl out from under their Rocks to continue their occupation of scamming, theft and assault. We will see how good Khunploum is then, when the streets of his City are running with Gold again.

How many small and medium business have been shut out for two years and now not allowed a place at the gravy-train with the expectations that they'll languish and die-off - as who needs the competition for the shrunken tourism dollars that are drying up and heading to friendly nations without the gauntlet of restrictions?

I've been living here for 10 years and was coming here since , never have I been mugged, drugged or shaken down, I also remember when his younger brother was mayor, never had a problem, so I've no idea what you are prattling on about. Saw them all in their yellow shirts and black jackets today surveying the scene at the entrance to Walking Street like a bunch of clueless gofers.

I think they were trying to work out how big a piece of cardboard they need to cut to cover the hole they dug up a couple of months ago. We are only a few days out of curfews for heavens sake
