Re: Please kill Jomtien bar zone proposal (PM Mailbag Friday, 25 September 2015) – I really like Jomtien for many reasons. I keep coming back. But I wouldn’t live there full time. I go there on holiday. If I could actually move to Thailand and live my life in Thailand, I would go anywhere with almost no tourists and stay there.
I will never understand why anyone would move anywhere near Pattaya to live, and then complain about the bars and the noise they might make.
John Guru, you sound like you are ready to move to the countryside in real Thailand. Or just get used to the way things are now. Be happy, you are in Thailand after all. Human activity tends to be noisy.
Or move to Denmark of all places, where I am at the moment. Here it is very quiet and dull. Absolutely nothing happens. No street life because of the frigid temperatures and bad weather.
Believe me, I miss my little guesthouse in Jomtien, which is right next to a bar where they sing karaoke full on all night, every night. I find it funny. It doesn’t bother me. And I have a normal hearing.
