@Holland Guroe, actually paying a barfine is not 'buying' a girl. Barfines are just a compensation to the employer of the particular girl for having her leave work early. What after that happens is strictly a matter of consenting adults. Perhaps I take her out for dinner or sent her home straight away for an early night.

Ok, so the police starts to clear all bars in Pattaya, that is a step in the future, also the karaoke bars en shower sabay sabay where you get a special massage.?!
And Go Go bars, beach girls, etc.!?
Is this finaly the end of pattaya,
Warning: Do not pay barfine to a bar as you then are wrong in the Thai law already, you buy a girl or whatever to have possible sex, then when the girl goes to the police and tel them you wanted to have sex for money the game starts real.YOU ARE WRONG.
My advice, take a normal girl as your wife, open normal business, and stay far from something you do not know. And avoid legal problems.

However you can open a bar, only for sell drinks and food, How about your own country !?

When you want to sell, ask the police first, the can help you and tel you what is legal or not.
Try it.

The Pattaya police own some bars that serve alcohol on holidays, open after hours, sell prostitutes, and pay the staff below minimum wage.
Who can I call to have them arrested?
