I had assumed you meant that the age check and his ID were independent of each other. After all, boys carrying ID cards that are not their own are, so I'm told, not unknown. I never ask to see ID cards, as I stay at Tarntawan Hotel when in Thailand and they always check that sort of thing themselves.

The ID cards do have their photo, and full name and I haven't come across a fake one yet ...... though I am aware boys do "borrow" cards on occassions. The guards at my condo in Jomtien just smile and salute when I bring a boy back, so I cant rely on them to do the checking for me!

My closest tells me there are numerous places in Bangkok, well known, where you can in 5 minutes buy a fake ID card, fake ID number and name, with your photo. Don't know about Pattaya but my guess is that it would be easy enough.

-- I'm sure that writing-down things in a log-book is all v. well - but, really, what does that mean? - When I used to stay in the SURIWONGSE HOTEL I used to give a suitable ack. to the two Sec. Gds. from time-to-time in the hope that they'd be MORE careful in their checking of my guests' IDs. - at least as far as I was concerned. -- But howmany of us resemble the photos. in our p'ports.? - Perhaps that's why the Immig'n. Bureau insist on recent photos. of LESS than 6 mos. old. when one renews one's Retirement Visa? - Thai IDs. are renewed every so many yrs. - thus plenty of time for facial features, especially of young people, to change and to become LESS like the original photo., especially if the photo. wasn't too good in the first place. -- Bibi. --

Frankly I don't care about any of those sorts of details. Someone Thai has recorded the ID details of my visitor so if there's a subsequent dispute, as mentioned by another poster, there's some record that someone else than me saw the ID. Not that for a moment I believe that would be much help in the Land of Scams, if it came to it. If anything it's a potential deterrent to someone who was hoping to use the fake ID/underage switcheroo, that's all. They may have second thoughts about their potential success. I've certainly encountered boys who have refused to go with me when they've found where I'm staying (sometimes as we're about to walk up the driveway). That's their choice - and maybe my protection, such as it is.

I have honestly never heard of anything like that happening.The arrests that are publicised are usually for VERY "dec dec" (like 12 to 14) , but I agree with all above posts ...... best to be vigilant. There are so many cute 18 - 20's guys why the hell would any-one risk the trama of under-age (unless thay are paedophile?)

-- As this apparent difference of one year between the TH. way and others' way of calculating ages might determine if a Thai boi is of legal age or otherwise, let us say a Thai boi is born in 1993AD., (Western style.), then he'd go and collect his ID. during the yr. 2008AD., when he'd be turning 15YO.? - Am I correct? - I shall check with some of my 'Talking boyz.', but yr. advice will be equally welcome.. -- Bibi. --
