Unbeknownst to many, the scourge of yaba inflicts damage on many gay boys in Pattaya.
HIV another major issue, but this thread is a true tale of a Thai boy and yaba.
Boy (not real nickname) is very popular on gayromeo and was also popular in his Gogo boy days. Boy had been
pulled over by police on his motorbike twice this month, tested positive for yaba and
was able to raise 25,000b. to pay off police each time, and not arrested.
Last night, several police followed him home and he was found in possession of yaba ice.
Pee test was positive and Boy ran out of sponsors to help with money, so Boy turned in
several other Thais who were dealers/friends. Police picked up at least two of them
Boy was released this morning.
Friends of Boy told me they would have served the time, which might have been years,
rather than rat out the dealer friends.
Boy will have to flee Pattaya or be shot dead and not return to Pattaya.
I'll continue the story as it unfolds.

One frequent way the police find and arrest pedo farangs, is they offer the boys a deal when they get picked up for yaba. They give the police the pedo's address for a lighter
sentence and if young enough are released after giving up the addresses/ tel.#s.
