11 July 2009 Bring lawyers, guns and money: Although I happened to be just 50 metres from the action at the time, I am still not 100 percent certain of precisely what went down just before midnight on Wednesday night 1 July out the front of the Super Baby and Super Girl ogling dens in Soi Diamond. A group of uniformed persons in the employ of Pattaya City Hall had gone into Super Baby and Super Girl. A short time later both places had turned out their lights, turfed out their dancing damsels and floor staff, and pulled down the shutters. First suggestions were that the city employees had raided the two long-established places and found a number of young country maidens in a state of undress performing a show. Given the style of so-called ‘shows’ performed in both places I can only say they are about as erotic as having an ice cube stuck up your clacker by an octogenarian grandmother with Parkinson’s. In fact, the shows have been on the agenda for so long they could almost be classified as ‘cultural’. Unconfirmed -but reasonably reliable- reports suggest Khun Pradid, the well-known, liked and respected owner of the two dens, decided to shut them both early of his own volition. This was after one of the uniformed city employees allegedly threatened to close him down when Khun Pradid refused to supply girls for free sexual activities for this man and his friend. Things became quite heated, in a verbal sense, and there were fears the whole episode could lead to physical violence. In the end the situation was defused and I have a feeling we won’t be seeing too much of the city hall brigade darkening the doors of the Super dens in the near future. |
