A change I’ve noticed over the years in Thailand is the more visible security guards. Go back 15 years and you hardly noticed security guards. They were always around and would arrive quickly if trouble started. Then they became more visible at the larger nightclubs and now even larger bars in tourists places. Naturally they are equipped with military style uniforms, which all ups the sense of potential conflict. I guess this is yet another example of Thailand following in the footsteps of other countries. Give it a few more years and shaven or bald meat heads will be a requirement to become a security guard.

Why are there Indian security personnel at the Indian bars in Pattaya? All employment has to be local people, not imported. If they cannot stick to the rules then, they cannot operate the business.

It says nightclub guards from an Indian bar, not Indian nightclub guards.

Besides, never heard of the 4-to-1 rule?

Because, just like the Chinese, Indians have total disregard for anything outside their own requirements and to hell with laws and regulations.

An Indian in a punch-up with Indians at an Indian bar? Close the place down and then find out the REAL reason for the brawl.

Sadly there seems to be little or no training or qualifications for security guards in Thailand. Though I do not doubt for one minute that although the Indian tourist allegedly did not start the physical fight he needlessly provoked it

There are Indians who have a Thai passport, or do you think all those tailors and restaurantholders have the Indian nationality. I knew one Indian restaurant in Phuket where the "Indian" owner was from Issaan and even spoke Lao with his wife.
