There is a more sinister reason behind it than let out. I was in Korat recently for a Tri-Nation joint exercise and what I heard from my Thai counterparts was that General O-Chan used to be the Commander of the 2nd Infantry Division which covers the eastern part of Thailand including Pattaya. While he was in charge it was happy days for him & his men as they have a hand in every money making aspect from the region. When he was posted out, his men lost control of the businesses to the foreign mafia and triads and now he is taking the opportunity to regain control from them. We should not have to worry as the bars and whatnots will still be there for us to enjoy as the targets are the foreign criminal syndicates and not the tourists or mongers.

The ones who should worry are the business owners and wanted fugitives.
