Thai police have arrested 10 Russians who allegedly organised sexual training courses for their compatriots in the seaside resort city of Pattaya. “The hotel management said they had no details on the event but they booked it for a seminar and training,” Pattaya tourist police official Piyapong Ensarn told AFP. Police also found white t-shirts with the words “sex animator” and certificates intended for those who took part in the course. Its sex tourist industry thrives despite prostitution being illegal in Thailand and occasional crackdowns on the trade. On Tuesday officials said they had sent a letter to the government of Gambia after an official there reportedly described the kingdom as a destination for sex tourists.
