    Big Brother hits the beach: AI policing slashes crime in Pattaya
    Big Brother hits the beach: AI policing slashes crime in PattayaLegacyPattaya’s not just a party town anymore — it’s now a high-tech crime-fighting zone with eyes everywhere. Thai police claim the latest artificial intelligence (AI)-powered surveillance system has cut physical assaults and property-related crimes in Pattaya by at least 40%. And if you’re walking the streets, chances are — you’re being watched. Region 2 Police Chief Lieutenant General Yingos Thepchamnong revealed that targeted, tech-driven policing is behind the dramatic drop in crime. “We can now identify threats faster and track down suspects more efficiently,” he said. The so-called “Pattaya model” combines mobile surveillance units equipped with smart cameras and an AI-enhanced database of wanted and high-risk individuals. Developed jointly by tourist police, immigration officers, and Pattaya city authorities, the initiative is backed by the Central Investigation Bureau and a UK-based firm, Gorilla Technology. Mike Wang, director of Gorilla Technology in Thailand and Asia, said: “Pattaya is becoming a new benchmark both regionally and globally.” The surveillance doesn’t stop at street corners. Facial recognition tech can now identify random individuals, and cutting-edge tools can even detect mobile phones — switched off or not. “It’s about creating a smarter, safer city,” said Wang. Of course, some experts warn against relying too heavily on the numbers. “Crime data can be soft,” said a police source. “Many incidents go unreported, and others — like consensual drug use — exist in legal grey areas.” Photo of New York police standing with an airport patrolling robot But the tech push is far from over. Coming soon: self-driving police vehicles, AI-powered forensic software for fingerprint recovery, virtual reality training to handle mall shootings and riots, and fingertip scanners to unmask online predators and cybercriminals. Drones with high-definition zoom lenses are also in development, alongside systems that retrieve deleted files from seized laptops, reported Pattaya Mail. Globally, other countries are setting the pace. China’s AnBot robot — gunfire-resistant and built to patrol schools and banks — is already on the streets. In Dubai, airport touchscreens are linked to robotic officers for faster identity checks. The story Big Brother hits the beach: AI policing slashes crime in Pattaya as seen on Thaiger News.

    Brits in Pattaya face rising risks, embassy warns
    Brits in Pattaya face rising risks, embassy warnsLegacyThe British Embassy is sounding the alarm in Pattaya, and expats would be wise to take notice. During a high-profile reception at the Courtyard by Marriott, the Bangkok-based consul in charge of consular affairs addressed a gathering of British expats and Thai officials with a stark warning: the number of UK nationals in distress is rising sharply. Joanne Finnamore-Crorkin cited an ageing expat population, a surge in uninsured traffic accidents, and an increase in drug-related arrests, particularly involving cannabis, as key factors driving the spike in embassy intervention. Finnamore-Crorkin introduced George Barrie as the soon-to-be honorary consul for Pattaya, pending official confirmation. Once appointed, he’ll support the embassy in handling consular emergencies for Brits in trouble. Photo of Joanne Finnamore-Crorkin and George Barrie She warned that traffic accidents — particularly involving motorbikes — were on the rise, with too many Brits still relying on flimsy or non-existent travel insurance. “Proper provision is essential,” she said, urging British nationals to keep their affairs in order, including having a valid will. Photo of Jeff Mitchell (left) and Barry Upton (right) From left to right: Pavika Chaowachotchuang, Sirisak Laisong, Sathita Weerakultewan and Joanne Finnamore-Crorkin Drug-related issues were another major concern. The consul flagged an increase in holidaymakers caught trying to take cannabis out of Thailand, wrongly assuming it’s legal abroad. “Cannabis remains a controlled herb here,” she said, adding that those arrested in other countries could face years behind bars. Finnamore-Crorkin also pointed to the complex nature of dealing with road traffic incidents in Thailand, explaining that no single agency is responsible. This means embassy officials often have to coordinate with a patchwork of officials, from police and hospitals to provincial governors and immigration. She took the opportunity to thank Pattaya’s local British community for their ongoing support, including ex-service groups and businesses that regularly assist the embassy, reported Pattaya Mail. Pattaya Mail owner Pratheep Malhotra (left) and Jack Levy (right) On a more upbeat note, she highlighted that 2025 marks the 170th anniversary of UK-Thailand diplomatic ties, dating back to the Bowring Treaty of 1855. The milestone, she said, reflects a robust relationship built on trade, tourism, royal connections and shared values in security and prosperity. The embassy continues to encourage all Brits living in or visiting Thailand to register for travel advice and stay informed about local laws and potential risks.

    What’s really holding Pattaya back from its golden era — people, culture, or spending habits?
    Pattaya’s tourism faces new challenges as visitor spending patterns shift amid growing budget-conscious travelers. (Photo by Jetsada Homklin) PATTAYA, Thailand – Once the crown jewel of Thai tourism, Pattaya continues to attract visitors with its lively nightlife, beaches, and warm hospitality. Yet despite new efforts to boost its appeal, the city struggles to reclaim its former “golden era.” Economic pressures, shifting traveler profiles, and unresolved management challenges all shape Pattaya’s current trajectory. Tourist demographics are changing. The city now welcomes a broader range of visitors, including many budget-conscious, middle-class travelers from India and other emerging markets. Many share accommodations and limit spending, prompting concerns among local businesses that per-visitor income no longer matches earlier waves of Western retirees or affluent Asian tourists. While affordability remains a draw, a heavy focus on low-cost tourism can strain service quality and impact hospitality workers who depend on tips. Striking a balance between fair wages and competitive pricing is essential to maintaining a welcoming environment that encourages return visits. Visitor behavior also influences Pattaya’s image. Some tourists adopt extreme budget-saving tactics or practices that clash with local norms, creating friction. Reports of resource-sharing and misuse of public spaces, while not representative of all, contribute to uneven experiences and underscore the need for better visitor education and clearer management. Safety remains a pressing concern. Petty theft and street crimes still occur, sometimes forcing tourists to spend part of their trip in police stations rather than enjoying the beach. This undermines Pattaya’s reputation as a carefree getaway. Even traditionally tranquil areas—from Jomtien and Pratumnak to Wong Amat—are now busier and less peaceful. Improved security, better enforcement, and smart crowd management could help restore visitor confidence. Regulatory enforcement is also inconsistent. Clearer rules around beach use, cleanliness, alcohol control, and public behavior—along with consistent policing—would go a long way in enhancing the overall experience and public trust. Mixed traveler sentiments are telling: while some say “Good luck, Pattaya,” expressing doubts they’ll return, others continue to visit occasionally, drawn by fond memories and evolving offerings. This divide reflects a city at a crossroads—caught between its storied past and an uncertain future. Despite challenges, Pattaya is adapting—broadening its hospitality offerings from luxury resorts to affordable stays, while embracing trends like wellness tourism and remote work-friendly “workcations.” Improved flight connections and more relaxed visa policies have made the city more accessible than ever. But for those dreaming of retirement here, one thing hasn’t gotten easier: the cost of settling down. With a stronger baht and rising living expenses, it now takes deeper pockets—and smarter planning—to make that dream a reality. To recapture and surpass its former glory, Pattaya must build a more balanced tourism model—one that promotes sustainable spending, respects local culture, fairly supports workers, encourages responsible behavior, and ensures public safety. By addressing these challenges with care, the city can preserve its charm while evolving with the needs of today’s global traveler.

    Resilience beyond the spotlight: Tourists and the reality of Pattaya’s bar girls
    They survived the pandemic — they’ll survive the low season too. Many tourists believe Pattaya’s bar girls have endured worse and will adapt once again. (Photo by Jetsada Homklin) PATTAYA, Thailand – While many visitors voice concern about the hardships faced by bar girls during slow seasons, a significant portion of tourists see the situation with a more pragmatic eye. Having witnessed these workers endure the pandemic’s challenges and survive the toughest times, some tourists believe the bar scene will weather the current low season as well. There’s a sense that, no matter how difficult things get, the nightlife community has a resilience built from years of hardship. For some, the question isn’t about sympathy but economics. They argue that if bar fines and prices were lowered, the industry would attract more customers — simple supply and demand, though many feel this common-sense approach is often ignored. Others take a more indifferent stance, pointing out that most tourists come for the experience itself, not because they feel responsible for the livelihoods of bar girls. Many see the work these women do as no different from any other form of labor, whether in factories or fields, highlighting the pressures these workers face to maintain appearances and income for families, even in difficult circumstances. Behind the glamor often projected, there’s a harsher reality. Large gogo establishments may offer high salaries on paper, but the day-to-day conditions can be taxing. Bar girls can be penalized for being even a minute late, failing to meet drink quotas, or for multiple bar fines throughout their contracts — many of which never translate to actual time spent with customers. Commissions on drinks are small, and penalties can sometimes exceed earnings, especially when cheap alcohol is deducted at inflated rates from their pay. Health care benefits and social security are often absent, while the nature of the job — heavy drinking and late nights — takes a toll on their wellbeing. Tourists may debate the role bar girls play in Pattaya’s tourism ecosystem, but there’s little doubt about their enduring presence. The reality is complex, shaped by economic necessity, cultural expectations, and an industry that remains a magnet for both visitors and workers alike. Despite all the challenges, both sides—tourists and bar workers—continue to navigate this world together, hoping for a better, fairer future.

    Pattaya security guard attacked while breaking up payment dispute between Thai woman and foreigner
    A Pattaya hotel security guard was seriously injured after trying to break up a dispute between a Thai woman and a foreigner over payment. PATTAYA, Thailand – A 37-year-old security guard at a hotel in central Pattaya was seriously injured early Monday morning after intervening in a heated dispute between a Thai woman and a foreign man. The woman reportedly struck the guard on the head with a mobile phone, causing bleeding and a head wound, before fleeing the scene. According to the security guard, Wisuwat, the altercation started when the Thai woman and the foreign man, who had met on Pattaya Beach, could not agree on payment terms. When Wisuwat attempted to calm the situation and asked them to move downstairs to avoid disturbing other guests, the woman became aggressive and attacked him with her phone. Emergency responders arrived promptly, providing first aid before rushing Wisuwat to a hospital for treatment. Pattaya police have launched an investigation, collecting witness statements and reviewing CCTV footage to track down the suspect. Authorities have called on the public to help identify the woman involved. The case has sparked lively discussion among local residents online. Some pointed out that many hotels keep guests’ ID cards as a security measure for the safety of staff and visitors. Others expressed sympathy for the injured guard and called for swift justice. A few commenters urged caution, noting that confrontations can sometimes be complex and that hotel staff might also occasionally provoke situations. Several community voices emphasized the need for improved hotel security and more responsible behavior from all parties involved. Some highlighted past incidents in the region where disputes escalated dangerously, underlining the importance of better conflict management and public safety awareness. The attacker fled the scene before police arrived, prompting an ongoing investigation with help from CCTV footage and witness reports.

    EEC land prices surge, Pattaya tops with 126.5% jump amidst Thailand’s real estate challenges
    Banglamung, home to major tourist city Pattaya, leads EEC land price surge with a staggering 126.5% increase, driven by strong demand from tourism and long-term foreign residents. PATTAYA, Thailand – The Thai real estate market faces multiple headwinds including weak purchasing power and tighter lending from financial institutions. Yet, land prices continue to climb steadily, especially along key transit corridors in Bangkok, its suburbs, major provincial cities, and notably within the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC) zone. This reflects strong foreign investment inflows and expanding residential projects supporting the region’s growing industrial hubs. According to the Real Estate Information Center (REIC), the index for undeveloped land prices in the EEC in Q1 2025 hit 332.2 points, up 24.9% year-on-year. Foreign investments surged by 31% YoY, totaling 47 billion baht, driven mainly by investors from Japan, China, and Singapore targeting industrial estates and housing for migrant and local workers. Top five locations with the highest land price growth include: Banglamung, Chonburi: +126.5% Home to major tourist city Pattaya, this area saw the steepest rise, fueled by demand for condos, housing estates, and long-term foreign residency. Sri Racha, Chonburi: +88.6% Popular among Japanese residents, driven by mid-to-high-end residential developments near large industrial estates.   Ban Khai, Rayong: +47.9% Growth linked to industrial expansion and energy clusters, with land scarcity prompting early buying. Chonburi City: +33.5% The economic and service hub sees continued price gains thanks to commercial projects and low-rise housing.   Pluak Daeng, Rayong: +11.2% Industrial-adjacent land favored for factories, warehouses, and labor housing. Meanwhile, Chachoengsao is the only EEC province to see a price decline, down 13.5%, due to temporary slowdown in residential developments amid uncertain market conditions. The accelerating expansion of production bases and infrastructure development in the EEC continues to attract substantial investments, driving dynamic land price movements that even developers find hard to keep pace with.
