Asia After Hours

Ladyboy/katoey interview at Nana Plaza, Bangkok – Jan.2011

I actually wasn’t planning doing another ladyboy interview that time. It was more spontaneous when I saw these two ladyboys crossing my way.
When I compare this with my first ladyboy video interview 3 years ago, I have to say I became more smooth with this stuff. This was a single, one-piece shot.

Jodie is 24 and Nadia 25. Both work for a ladyboy bar at Nana Plaza. One of the girls had a breast operation at Yanhee hospital for THB 60k and the other one at a different plastic surgery place for THB 55k. They both earned around THB 40k for the month December which is pretty good, in some months they even make THB 60k which shows that they are making as much as the good/hard-working bargirls around there. Not a bad job and don’t forget about the freedom they have. I like to structure things more positive in general on this website. The sad stories you hear more than enough.
It is interesting to see that about 50% of the ladyboys like both sexual features, half of them want to keep their dick even if they had the money to change it. It is incredible how much of their earned money they invest into cosmetics, you could often pay the rent with it.

Bang, Bang, Bangkok : Bloody Pussy Rampage

It’s finally time to kick out the Bangkok video. Yeah !

Like the title, picture and opening scene of the video show you, I really fucked the shit out of some girls there…and they liked it !

I would say the prettiest bargirls of whole South East Asia you clearly will encounter in Bangkok. Moreover these girls are really entertaining and it is fun to hang out with them before and after the “job” is done.

The bars at Soi Cowboy and Nana Plaza are relaxed, no pushy mamasans like almost everywhere in the Philippines…The good thing is that most of the bars in Bangkok have enough customers to prosper, there is no need to milk a few, accidental customers.

I also like the broad spectrum of guests you will encounter in the bars there. As you can see in the video, there are all ages, all races and all professions around. The search for Thai pussy brings the world together !
Global Nanpa should become an ambassador for peace ! I haven’t seen any stronger force in the world that unites people more than the content I am releasing in my videos and posts.

The girls play all by the rules. I never had a strange experience with a bargirl in Bangkok, whereas I could tell stories of a few cases at other places where things didn’t go the way I hoped.

Enough words : Enjoy another Bang, Bang, Bangkok episode :

Thai ladyboy/katoey interview, Nana Plaza, Bangkok Sept. 2010 and Thailand’s >USD 6 billion medical tourism industry

So here is a new ladyboy/katoey interview. I very much like the picture above, being taken at maybe the “world’s coolest short-time room”: a room with balcony overlooking the Nana Plaza Entertainment entrance, the Nana car park / Nana hotel and the Nana skytrain station.

I ask the ladyboys my usual questions. Both are from Bangkok, the smaller one is 22, the other one Thainee, 24. Main motivation for most men in Thailand to become ladyboys, next to “feeling like a woman inside”, is money and a more exciting job. It is not so difficult to understand why the younger one of them wanted to become a ladyboy when considering that she had a low salary + boring supermarket job before and now she really seems to enjoy her life. Thainee is very communicative and perfect for an entertainment or communicative function. She even went to university but chose to work in ladyboy bar when she got introduced to it by a friend.

We change topics in the end  to sex reassignment surgery and the financial expenses of their transformation. Both of them paid THB 50.000 for their breast operation which I consider to be a general price for a fair hospital/doctor. Only the younger one had a sex reassignment operation for which she paid only THB 80.000. In general I hear more often that THB 100k is usual for the hospitals with a certain reputation.It is very important to inform yourself well about the physician and clinic in general. The risk is not that high but nobody wants to be the one where the operation doesn’t achieve its goal or even worse.

We play a litte around with numbers now : In the video we come to the conclusion that maybe 0.5% of the Thai male population turn into ladyboys and maybe 1% in Bangkok which already is a strong/high assumption. Thailand has a population of approximately 60 million and Bangkok of about 9 million. We drop out people below 18-years-old and over 60-years-old. This means we have for Thailand a population of around 45 million and for Bangkok 6.5 million in the target age range. In whole Thailand we would then have potentially 225.000 ladyboys and in Bangkok 65.000 ladyboys. Those numbers look about right from my experience and feeling. About 50.000 ladyboys in Bangkok could be really true.

Let’s assume of the about 50.000 Bangkok ladyboys that 10% get a sex reassignment surgery for THB 100k and maybe 20% take hormones and get a breast operation for maybe THB 50K. That would be THB 500 million revenues coming from sex change and THB 500 million coming from breast operation = THB 1 billion = about USD 33.3 million. That doesn’t include costs for maybe permanent hair removal, hormones and other additional cosmetic treatments. With my estimation I would get to a domain beauty enhancement market caused by Thai ladyboys of approximately USD 50 million. I heard from people in the medical industry in Thailand that the number shall be around USD 100 million. Maybe that was exaggerated, who knows.

Thailand is Asia’s most popular medical hub. Believe it, it is true ! The market is growing 14% annually there, having a size of more than USD 6 billion (!), according to Research and Markets. In India the treatments might be cheaper but nobody can beat Thailand with the all-around package. Thailand is long accustomed of receiving foreign travellers, English is understood well and it is just a perfect tourist spot where a medical stay will feel like vacation when your time inside the hospital feels more like being in a hotel, getting treated by the most gentle people and being offered good meals too ! I had stayed 2 days at Bumrungrad myself in 2008 and was very impressed.

In 2009, 2 million tourists came to Thailand to take advantage of the healthcare services. Healthcare costs in Thailand are about 20% of what you would pay in the United States. People are often coming for general check-ups, dental and cosmetic surgery services.

Bangkok hospital served almost 200.000 international patients in 2009 and Bumrungrad around 75.000 from what I heard. A great resource for Thailand’s medical tourism is provided from the Tourism Authority of Thailand :

Bang, Bang, Bangkok : Fuck the pain away

It’s been quiet a while since my last bargirl video.  I only made a little pause to show that the spectrum is getting more diverse. Bargirls will remain an important topic here. The video speaks for itself, I don’t think explanations are necessary.
