Thai authorities have launched a crackdown on prostitution in Pattaya ahead of the arrival of the USS Abraham Lincoln, an aircraft carrier carrying 5,000 American sailors and Marines. The carrier is set to dock at nearby Laem Chabang this week, allowing its crew to rest and recuperate after over 200 days at sea. Police have detained dozens of suspects in raids and are preparing additional patrols around the city's main beachfront and nightlife district. Despite the crackdown, local officials acknowledge that sex workers may still solicit in public areas without their knowledge. The visit is expected to boost Pattaya's economy, with each U.S. military personnel potentially spending between $30 to $91 per day.
