Coss Posted February 6, 2019 Report Share Posted February 6, 2019 One hopes that, this puritan attitude towards Sanook does not grow further... Thai military police raided multiple street vendors along Bangkok’s Sukhumvit road yesterday, confiscating THB2 million (about US$64,000) worth of illegal sex toys and pills. Around 9pm last night, the deputy chief of the Internal Security Operation Command (ISOC), Col. Viroj Nongbualang, and Lumpini police investigated sex toy shops in the capital’s Watthana district — near the Nana BTS station — a very popular area for both tourists and locals looking for adult-oriented products. https://coconuts.co/bangkok/news/thai-police-seize-thb2-million-worth-illegal-sex-toys-pills-bangkok/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radioman Posted February 7, 2019 Report Share Posted February 7, 2019 It's long been the case that these have been "illegal" and I think their proliferation on the stalls of Sukhumvit is in someways just a bit super tacky, and wholly unnecessary for the most part. This current action is purely a tourist event however, the markets of Ban Moh and Klong Thom are still stacked with these if that's what you are after. There's another aspect to this though. The quality, as available in Thailand is abysmal, most products being inferior replicas of the original. I mean here the original electrically powered version as opposed to the original in its more, er, human state. Build quality, durability and power are three key areas and most locally available products simply do not compare. It seems likely that much of this stock is simply shipped cross border from a junk factory located in China. Hand carrying from a more liberal country whilst it might still be illegal, though I'm not sure if stated for personal use should anyone question it, is a superior alternative. In an IoT world bluetooth and even network connected toys are a reality and provide another level of control, and I've not seen those on Suk.

Flashermac Posted February 7, 2019 Report Share Posted February 7, 2019 There are plenty for sale in Chinatown too, but I suppose they pay for their "permit". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffalo_bill Posted February 7, 2019 Report Share Posted February 7, 2019 Thanks God this crap has disappeared. I note several foodstalls did come back in the meantime which I fully support although not eating there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Specialist Posted February 8, 2019 Report Share Posted February 8, 2019 It's funny. I used to enjoy walking down Suk, seeing the variety of stuff at the tourist trap stalls. Then the porn and the pills and the toys started crowding everything else out, and I got tired of it, real fast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
migrant Posted February 8, 2019 Report Share Posted February 8, 2019 When I saw the sex toys in the headlines I thought they had closed Nana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panadolsandwich Posted April 7, 2019 Report Share Posted April 7, 2019 First of all, the pills are fake. I can't attest to the sex toys I don't see the point. I mind one time timidly declaring 5 boxes of Valium at the suwannaphumi airport when I was from Cambodia and they didn't blink an eye - please go through Sir when I explained I was a doctor.

Mekong Posted April 7, 2019 Report Share Posted April 7, 2019 A real Doctor would refer to it as Diazepam and not Valium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panadolsandwich Posted April 17, 2019 Report Share Posted April 17, 2019 Well I was describing it for the majority. Wait - were we in a medical lecture? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekong Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 As I stated a Real Doctor would of stated Diazepam first followed by Valium for those who do not know if they felt it was needed. Grow up you sad cunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
