Pattaya Motorcycle Taxi Riders Must Register With Banglamung District

Hell life used to be so easy for the Pattaya Motorcycle Taxi Drivers. The hardest part was the long ride from Nakhon Nowhere somewhere in Isaan with the soon to be go-go dancer girlfriend perched on the back.

Of course you needed a motorcycle but that could always be borrowed from someone who didn't know they were lending it out. After all the girlfriend would always be able to find a gullible farang to provide a new one after a few weeks of hard toil.

Now the Sherrif of Banglamung District Khun Sakchai Teangmo is determined to sort out this gang of beer chang chugging chimps. All motorcycle taxi drivers have been given a difficult task - they have been given an ultimatum - they must fill in numerous forms to register themselves and their two wheeled limos with the authorities or face the long ride back home. I say difficult because few can speak Thai even fewer can read and write.
