HISTORY GUIDE
Pattaya also known as Fun City is Thailand’s most popular resort only 90 minutes from Bangkok. Once a sleepy fishing town, Pattaya first boomed as an R&R spot during the Vietnam War and has been a popular tourism destination ever since. Currently, Pattaya is booming and the opening of the Suvarnabhumi Airport has made visiting easier than ever. Pattaya is popular not only as a beach resort and for its entertainment, nightlife and shopping, but also for the broad selection of recreational activities it caters for, from golf and horseback riding to bungee jumping, karting and shooting - not to mention a wide variety of watersports such as scuba diving, jet-skiing, sailing, windsurfing and kite surfing. Pattaya, unlike other beach resorts, shows no respite after sundown, Pattaya’s nightlife is unique and fascinating with Walking Street, South Pattaya in the centre of it all. This is the most popular place to go amongst tourists and expats and you’ll find many go go bars, beer bars, discos, street entertainers and the odd ladyboy. Food is another one of the highlights of any trip to Pattaya. From giant prawns to spicy som tam salad, there is every imaginable cuisine here. Cajun, Chinese, Indian, Italian, English, French, Vietnamese, German, Russian and more. Today Pattaya attracts annually more then a million tourists from all over the world. Pattaya provides high standard hotels, restaurants, sports, entertainment and shopping. It really has it all and a whole lot more. 6

GETTING AROUND GUIDE
THIS MONTH ARE PATTAYA’S ROADS IMPROVING? Many roads in Thailand are in excellent condition and are well maintained however you’re likely to come across bumpy roads with large potholes, some 10 inches deep. These potholes led to a number of accidents, some more serious than others, and caused damage to people’s vehicles. However, towards the end of 2014 noticeable improvements were made to the roads, not just filling in potholes but actually resurfacing the roads. Many smaller roads around the city had drain covers repaired and significant parts of the road resurfaced. This was certainly required, and had done for a long time, but in the past there had seemed little or no urgency to get the repairs carried out. Getting accurate figures about the number of accidents in Pattaya that can be directly attributed to the state of the roads is probably impossible but most would suggest that there has been a significant decrease. Perhaps there really is a push to improve the image of the city and this is just one element of this. Regardless of the reasons, it is something that City Hall should be praised for and encouraged to continue the good work. The improvement to the roads will certainly make driving here a more enjoyable experience for tourists and reduce the chances of picking up any unwanted bills due to damage to vehicles. If you are in Pattaya for the short of long term you could look to rent a car from Pattaya Rent a Car or motorbike from Pattaya Rent a Bike. All cars come with first class insurance that covers a rented vehicle and all motorbikes are insured to the highest possible level. They are located on the Pratamnak Hill.

HEALTH & FITNESS GUIDE
A healthy lifestyle can be achieved anywhere in the world and Pattaya is certainly one of the most popular places people choose to stay fit and in shape. Thailand has a tropical climate and is therefore ideal for the pursuit of outdoor activities: volleyball, soccer, sailing plus many more. However, for and in indoor healthy lifestyle, Pattaya is also among the best and the vast number of 5 star health massage organisations, beauty parlours, plastic surgery clinics, spas and fitness centre mean that Pattaya really is the place to improve your overall health and look. Many people now choose to partake of the various treatments from facials, to waxing and detox to botox in order to gain that healthier looking body and due to the current price of treatments in many western countries, Thailand has found itself an entire new market in patients arriving for plastic surgery treatment and general medical operations which in their own country would cost much more than locally in Thailand.

SHOPPING GUIDE
Pattaya has numerous large malls, small malls, supermarkets, bazaar-style markets, and thousands of other shops. Expect to find plenty of clothes shops and coffee shops but do not expect to find variety as most shops are selling the same things. Pattaya actually has a long way to go to catch up with Bangkok for variety and volume of shops but it is trying with several new shopping centres opening in recent years, and there’s more to come.
Bargaining is a way of life here but don’t worry if you don’t know your Thai numbers as most shop keepers will carry a calculator to show the price. As a general rule what ever their first price is, half it and you will be closer to what they are actually willing to sell the item for. If you are not happy then simply walk away as the shop keeper down the street will be selling the same thing. Try to have some fun when bargaining because if the shop keeper likes you they may give you a better price and never get aggressive, it doesn’t pay.

Koh Larn has six main beaches and a few smaller beaches for visitors to enjoy. All the beaches are of white sand and clear blue waters. There are many water sport activities at each of the beaches. There are also many other activities such as parasailing for you to enjoy while visiting Koh Larn. All the beaches have full facilities such as bathrooms and showers. Then there are the restaurants that serve up delicious fresh catch of the day seafood or just about any other dish you may desire. You can choose to order your meal in the restaurant or straight from your beach lounger. Yes, a day on Koh Larn can be a very relaxing experience, with the gentle sounds of the ocean and without all the noise of the city. There are many resorts on the island of Koh Larn, they range from budget rooms to luxury accommodations. While room rates are a little higher on the island than in Pattaya or Jomtien it is well worth the experience of spending the night on the island of Koh Larn. Some people like Koh Larn so much they end up staying there for extended periods like months and years. 54

BUSINESS SERVICES GUIDE
Thai Business Help established since March 2010, has been helping hundreds of expats and tourists from around the world with all types of business services including visa applications, extensions and renewals. Respected for offering the best advice when setting up a business in Pattaya, they are renowned for the best value too, just look at their prices. Not only that, they are well known and trusted within the expat community. All too often, we hear of horror stories of customers who have chosen business service providers who deliberately offer poor advice so they can charge more, high rates and hidden costs, and worse of all, a slow service that takes months. This type of treatment reflects badly on the industry and has a negative impact in the growth of Pattaya as a leading tourist destination. We have collated industry average prices you should expect to pay ANNUAL AUDIT Should take no more than 2 weeks to complete. Non-trading: 12-15,000 THB. Trading to 2m: 15-18,000 THB. COMPANY SETUP Should take no more than 3 days to setup. Registered 1m capital: 13-15,000 THB. Registered 2m capital: 18-20,000 THB. For further advice, we recommend Thai Business Help.

VISA INFORMATION GUIDE
Visas are probably the one thing that causes most confusion in Thailand. It seems that the rules regarding visas change on an almost daily basis and sometimes even depending on who you see or the questions that you ask. Whilst it is impossible to give any sort of advice when Immigration Officers are acting on a ‘whim’ it is possible to explain what visas are available in Thailand. Below is a simple guide to the general types of Visa that you can get for your stay in Thailand. VISA ON ARRIVAL This is the visa that is given to you at the airport when you arrive in Thailand. This is a form of tourist visa that grants you 30 days stay in the Kingdom. This can be extended at immigration for up to a maximum of 30 days. TOURIST VISA A 60 day Tourist Visa is obtain from a Thai Embassy (outside of Thailand) prior to your travel to the Kingdom. The visa can be single or multi entry. Again it is possible to extend this visa at Immigration although extensions are not always guaranteed. NON IMMIGRANT VISA This is valid for 90 days and is usually a single entry visa. There are a number of visas in this category although the most common are B (for the purposes of work), ED (for the purpose of education), O (to visit family residing in Thailand) or OA (for a retirement visa). The single entry visa is usually obtained in your home country prior to travel and then will be extended at the Immigration Department once you are in Thailand.

INSURANCE GUIDE
Insurance is an essential item when in Thailand, where all types of accidents happen daily. Whether you’re an expat or holidaymaker, you cannot ignore the importance of been well insured for all types of risk. From health & medical, to personal accident, to travel. In Thailand, a trip to the hospital costs money and you better have deep pockets if you’re not insured. A serious accident can cost hundreds of thousands of baht, and if you don’t have the money you’ll be sent to the nearest government hospital, where treatment is a life or death situation. You may own property over here, or a car or motorbike. Theft is a growing problem in Pattaya, and you want to ensure if the worst happens, you’ll be reimbursed quickly and fully. No insurance and your at the mercy of the local police catching the thieves, and hope that your items are not pawned. You maybe a restaurant owner, one of your staff accidentally spills hot soup on your customer. Your responsible, do you have liability cover?

Some buy principally as an investment, while others buy a holiday home; and some a permanent residence, having taken the decision to emigrate. Pattaya has become a very popular choice
When it comes to purchasing a property, there is a massive variety of houses and condominiums, in terms of size, price and quality, to choose between, which, in general terms, represent outstanding value for money, particularly when compared to the cost of real estate in the Western world.
