Racial Profiling in Go Go
A big bunch of us headed to Pattaya to celebrate our friend Nicks stag nite . It was a mixed group of three italians,a turk,an indian and three irish blokes. Had loads of fun and the first night we made tracks to Happy A Go Go on walking street .
Ijaz(the turk) and Kumar (indian) went up first to the doormen and he immediately shouts "No Entry,Members Only" . After that he had us absolutely aghast when he said the three irish blokes in our party could go in . We told him to go F##K himslef and his racist attitude.
We next went to a few other clubs near there...think it was peppermint and Dolls something,same thing happened,the non white guys were not allowed but they were fine with the caucasian lads.same bull about the non whites having to be members .We even asked where the hell do you become a member and he told us "Membership Closed"!
This really threw a wet blanket on the whole trip ,we never faced such behavior in Phuket or elsewhere.Racial Profiling is sad and absolutely not to be tolerated.Ijaz my friend,happens to be a travel agent and has forwarded the names of all these clubs to Indian and Middle Eastern travel agents to black mark.
Two of us have set up a forum on this issue on several brit and irish webbies and we have forwarded this behavior to several Indian and Arabic channels as well.
These bigots should know that racial profiling will not be tolerated by anyone for any reason,be it a Caucasian ,Asian or Arab .We will go all out to hit them where it hurts,the pocket,lets see how they feel about "memberships" when even the "white folk" stop going to these racist bars.
