People in Pattaya protest against the tag” evil area, sky of prostitutes” by the Thai press outlet Thairath, demanding that the state’s beneficial aspects be highlighted.
On Thursday evening, business owners and citizens gathered at the entrance to Pattaya Walking Street to defend its popularity and respect.
The businesses argued that Pattaya’s culture is influenced by its diversified attractions, which draw visitors from all over the world. They also highlighted the commitment of Pattaya’s travel organization to Thailand’s financial growth.
The city offers numerous job opportunities, allowing some people to support their people, according to the protesters.
According to Bunanan Pattanasin, chairman of the Pattaya Business and Tourism Association,” we want the internet to display the positive part of Pattaya in a more imaginative way.” ” Every town has a darker side, not merely Pattaya. This is a town of chance”.
Pattaya residents reacted to the bad press representation by using the twitter# SavePattaya on social media.
Thairath apologized in response to the criticism, posting an explanation on its Facebook page.” Thairath apologises to the people of Pattaya for presenting a media section about sexual function and using stories with negative repercussions, which have damaged the reputation of Pattaya as a major tourist destination in the country,” the statement read.
