BANGKOK: -- The army dispatched teams of soldiers to close down all non-tradtitional Thai massage shops in the Thonglor Police District early this evening.
No direct reason was given by the soldiers tasked with the job of visiting and closing down the 100s of happy ending massage shops on Sukhumvit Sois 22, 24, 26 and 33.
At around 3pm calls were received that the army would be coming in a few hours and word from those in the know – the people who take 20k plus a month from all the massage parlors for tea money – said that shops should get their house in order. In other words, make it look like anything but a knocking shop. Websites were taken offline and condoms by the boxload hidden or taken off the premises. Not that any of this made a difference.
At around 6.30pm troops arrived on Soi 24 and politely informed every naughty massage shop business was over for the day. Puts the lights out and go home. When their work was done it was over to Soi 33 for a repeat performance.
Just how they knew which shops are of the naughty I don’t know but they didn’t make any mistakes from what I’ve been told. The genuine Thai massage shops remain open for business.
Speculation is rife amongst owners as to what tomorrow will bring but it is hoped that the shops will be allowed to re-open but right now it’s a case of wait and see what happens as no instructions were given by the military other than close now.
