Second Public Obscenity Case in Two Days
This is the second Phuket tourist scandal in less than 48 hours. On September 25, a Russian tourist and a Thai woman filmed an explicit video in the back of a pickup truck on Phuket’s bypass road. Immigration police detained both at Suvarnabhumi Airport soon after.
Naked Dance Shocks Patong Visitors
Witnesses reported that the unidentified foreign man appeared drunk and out of control. He stripped naked, exposed himself, and danced provocatively on Bangla Road, one of Phuket’s busiest nightlife areas. Tourists stopped and watched in shock. Afterward, he put on light green shorts and ran away.

After the clip went viral, Thai netizens flooded social media with angry comments. Many called for police to:
-
Track the man down
-
Charge him with public indecency
-
Add him to Thailand’s immigration blacklist
Locals say this Phuket tourist scandal damages the island’s global image and threatens the tourism industry that supports their livelihoods.
Authorities Urged to Tighten Rules
Residents are urging local agencies to take stronger action against disrespectful tourists. They want stricter enforcement of public behavior laws to protect Phuket’s reputation as a world-class travel destination.
