The Pattaya Times - Online


The Pattaya Mail has been the coastal resort #1 weekly. The newspaper can be found almost everywhere. Its circulation has to be in the tens of thousands and no other publication has rivaled its reportage for brown-nosing the local authorities or ignoring to take a stand on any issue. I only read it for the Letters to the Editor, where farangs complained about lazy Thais, unfaithful wives, and soi dogs barking at night. My perusal of each issue took less than two minutes and I'm not a speed reader.

A better option is available to the expat community in the online Pattaya Times.

News of the town, nation, and world packed onto one website also offering Thai-English translation, maps, and information on upcoming events.

No letters to the editor, although the blog offers a chance for longtime whiners and complainers to vent their bile.

It's free
