Pattaya Climbs Southeast Asia Safety Rankings with CCTV Boost

Pattaya Secures Top 10 Safety Spot

CCTV Expansion Drives Safety Improvements

Pattaya has earned a spot among the top 10 safest cities in Southeast Asia, according to the Numbeo Safety Index, a ranking based on surveys from website visitors. City officials attribute this achievement to enhanced safety measures, particularly the widespread installation of CCTV cameras, which have significantly improved security at key tourism sites and across the city.

Numbeo Highlights Pattaya’s Safety Gains

Chiang Mai and Bangkok Also Rank High

The Numbeo Safety Index, compiled by a Serbian crowd-sourced database, placed Pattaya ninth in Southeast Asia, with Chiang Mai leading as the region’s safest city and Bangkok securing seventh place. The index reflects Pattaya’s progress in reducing crime rates and strengthening police capabilities, boosting its reputation as a secure destination for tourists and residents alike.

Mayor Addresses Safety Perceptions

Media Reports Don’t Tell Full Story

Pattaya Mayor Poramet Ngampichet acknowledged that frequent media reports of crime have fueled public skepticism about the city’s safety. However, he emphasized that these incidents do not fully represent Pattaya’s evolving safety landscape. The city’s proactive measures, including advanced surveillance systems, are reshaping perceptions and enhancing its appeal as a safe travel destination.

CCTV Network Strengthens Crime Prevention

Over 2,000 Cameras Installed Citywide

City Hall has deployed more than 2,000 CCTV cameras throughout Pattaya to aid criminal investigations and deter illegal activities. Plans are underway for a study trip to Bangkok’s Central Investigation Bureau to optimize the use of these cameras. Additional safety enhancements, such as improved street lighting, are also in progress to further reduce crime and accidents.

Public Participation and Tourism Challenges

Managing a Large Floating Population

Mayor Poramet highlighted the importance of community involvement in safety initiatives, noting that Pattaya’s floating population—three to four times the 120,000 registered residents—includes many outsiders, contributing to crime. With 20 million Thai and foreign visitors last year, the city is intensifying efforts to minimize accidents and crime, aiming to create a safer environment for all.
