Just been reading the Wikipedia travel entry for Patong Beach.
Patong Beach travel guide - Wikitravel
Bearing in mind it's self-regulated and written by anyone who wishes to contribute...and they write anonymously...whoever wrote the opening paragraph isn't exactly showing Patong in a good light!!
>>Patong is the party capital of Phuket, with a sex-drugs-booze-saturated nightlife and a great beach. Mostly made up of hotels, restaurants, nightclubs and various tourist attractions, there's a thriving nightlife, with numerous "entertainment complexes" and countless bars clustered together in and around Bangla Road, and female, transgender and male prostitutes to cater to every taste. Massage parlors of the erotic as well the therapeutic (Nuad Thai) genre provide less
alcohol/drug infested venues for punters and wellness seekers.<<
See at the bottom they are inviting anyone to add more content. Cue Dodger??!
