Stickman Posted October 30, 2002 Report Share Posted October 30, 2002 Just got a phone call from a Soi Cowboy bar manager to say that the soi is beig graided right now and there are an estimated 80 police there! Looks like another crackdown on underage girls from what he could make out. Stick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racha Posted October 30, 2002 Report Share Posted October 30, 2002 Last night there was an announcement over the loud speaker in Suzie Wong's bar to tell all the girls under 20 years not to come to work today so I suspected there was a raid going to happen tonight, looks like some of the bars knew in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 31, 2002 Report Share Posted October 31, 2002 I wonder if this will have any effect on tonight since it is Holloween? :: Should be interesting. :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 31, 2002 Report Share Posted October 31, 2002 it was not a raid, it was a show for the thai press that the cops take "security" for the tourists serious and that no one commits a crime in the country here. they held a speach, posed for the cameras in front of the bars, had a laugh, and disappeared. :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two, or is it three?, bombings inn the last 24hrs and five schools set alight. Thats a new take on book burning. http://news.google.com/news?q=bombing+thailand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bembaman Posted October 31, 2002 Report Share Posted October 31, 2002 The Thai TV news was portraying this as quite definitely a raid with drugs being the focus. Tourism/safety was not particularly mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
