Soi 6 New Rules


The Pattaya City Hall has been scandalized by the Belgian TV show Russian Dolls 2 and another Belgian-based newspaper “Het Laatste Nieuws”. The first revealed the process of procurement used by pimps touring the countryside for Pattaya-destined talent and the second informed its 250,000 readers that Pattaya was the world's sex capital. Both were in Flemish, which makes one wonder what thai knows Flemish and secondly who really cares what the Flemish think about Thailand?

Obviously the mayor who responded with a draconian crackdown on Soi 6.

After meeting with bar owners the mayor proposed a compromise for Soi 6.

Bars could open at 1pm, but with only two girls outside. Neon lights must remain off until 6pm. Girls can not block the traffic and neither can lady boys. Bars are also responsible for any violations of these new rules and are expecting to rat on offenders to the police.

There will be a dress code too.

Shoulders that historic erogenous zone must be covered.

Could this be the end of 'Hello handsome man?"
