He stressed the importance of clearing Pattaya of those who engage in criminal activities and confirmed to his officers that a list of 40 separate locations will be targeted in this crackdown over the next few days. The first morning of the operation was completed and the results were paraded in front of the local media. 185 Yabba Tablets, 2 Ecstasy Tablets, 8 guns, and many stolen mobile phones were seized. Illegal lottery operators along with suspected drug dealers were arrested. The General confirmed this was a good start to the operation which it is hoped will continue to clean-up Pattaya over the next few days.
