PUBLIC RELATIONS STUNT BACKFIRES FOR BRITISH PROSTITUTION BOSS IN THAILAND
NIGHT WISH TO DEATH WISH?
NEW WITNESSES TALK OF HUMILIATION OF THAI WOMEN
Spit-roasting was not a a way of cooking
Could a Vlogger with a video camera resurrect the image of a British ‘businessman’ in Thailand by filming him in a rice paddy and promoting him as part of the gentrified Polo set with planned stables near the Thai resort of Pattaya – and also in Argentina?
Could the Vlogger perhaps follow the businessman on his ‘meteoric rise’ as a business entrepeneuer?
That was the scene set on a YouTube channel called NDTV1 last week as two rough-around-the-edges characters from the British Midlands, one sweating heavily and out of puff, continued with their damage limitation excercise from events nearby in the a Thai sex resort.
Vlogger, Nick Dean, from Stoke-on-Trent, fresh from a hernia operation, dismissed the seemingly absurd notion that Bryan Flowers was on the run. He had been really busy toiling away on his dreams in the rice-paddy.
‘Epstein was more intelligent’
Why does Bryan Flowers, a former electrician’s mate from the Coventry district of Chapelfields need his own Polo Club, when the Thai National Club is next door, and he says they are happy to have a member like him?
Dean has a problem with his PR campaign. After he put out this video it was followed by a swathe of derogatory comments which he had to delete by the hour.
“Bryan is like Epstein Thailand. He should have gone to jail but money got him out of trouble.
‘Nick. You are a disgrace in many ways.’
It’s an uphill slog for the unlikely pair, both of whom arrived in Thailand on holiday and decided to stay.
Flowers is still reeling from an under-aged prostitution scandal involving his Pattaya business which until recently has been operating under the brand name the Night Wish Group, the umbrella for 20 plus of over 70 bars in a notorious street in the resort called Pattaya Soi 6.
Jailed for 21 years
Three of his staff, including a British bar manager were jailed for 21 years for trafficking a 16-year-old into the sex trade – one law, which the Thai Government insists should be applied, while ignoring laws that prostitution is illegal. And even then local police cannot be trusted to make the arrests.
Flowers claimed ‘victory’ in a memorandum to his foreign investors. Night Wish was ‘saved by our team,’ he said, and they should get a thank you. His wife had got a three year sentence because records showed that the money went into her bank accounts and it had cost him 11.5 million baht (£265,765) ‘due to corrupt police.’ But they had won. (But bang goes those dividends,boys!)
But in blogs he was furious. Night Wish was a set up, he claimed Investigators working for an anti-sex trafficking charity, has slept with prostitutes and bribed one of his staff to employ and under-aged girl. Police fitted up the evidence. A journalist (the writer here) was paid to write false stories. A whistleblower was a meth addict.
He had cleared his social media of incriminating Facebook posts and YouTube admissions – such as how to pay the authorities to get off drugs charges – even offering a service (above)
But he was not around for the verdict and sentence. In late June last year he quit Thailand for nearly six months, part of that time he was in Argentina, and then he tried to take action again the writer here in the U.K.
I had been involved after a Canadian, Adam Howell, contacted me from Thailand to explain that he had been defrauded by Bryan Flowers after being persuaded to invest US$460,000 in his business – no risk involved. He had saved all his conversations and memos from Flowers in massive files.
Local police gave a pretence of listening, but did nothing, he said. The rest is recorded in the previous stories on this site (listed at the end).
Flowers attempt at both civil and criminal actions in the UK failed very quickly. He had even taken the trouble to hire a private eye. Lawyers would have told him the risk of winning was minimal. But in any case the defendant did not have £100,000 – the starting price they gave for the costs of a court action. Police, who had to open the unmanned police country police station, took one look at my detailed statement and asked less than ten questions. No action required.
Then, as I reported, he started an internet a massive smear hub campaign with some 30 websites created with such titles as andrewdrummondexposed , andrewdrummondfacts, andrewdrummond the beast of Wiltshire – which is where I live. That’s no secret he has even an andrewdrummondaddress website!
The result was surprising. The numbers of followers to my social media seem to have doubled and messages of support followed. But then others started blowing the lid off Flowers and the Night Wish Group. They included former employees and others who had been subjected to smear campaigns – it was Flowers stock-in-trade. He did after all register www.ethical-trolling.com even though ethics played no part in his actions.
Soi 6 attracted the attention of the BBC last year when it filmed three episodes of ‘Thailand – The Dark Side. The witnesses who came forward could have given them answers to all the questions they sought. But they would have been too shocking to broadcast.
“You sound like you’re dancing around the obvious,” asked influencer Zara McDermott asked Mac, a vlogger, as they strolled down Pattaya Soi 6 with police in tow.
“I am dancing around the obvious. There are laws in Thailand and I need to protect myself, “ said Staffordshire ‘Mac’, a Pattaya vlogger, who himself was an illegal bar manager in Soi 6 – and who after the BBC crew left progressed to being a bar owner in Soi 7, where Nick Dean has three bars.
Mac wouldn’t be breaking any laws. He would merely now be aggravating organised crime groups, who, unfortunately in Thalland often work closely with police.
Prostitution is illegal in Thailand but tolerated. It’s what goes on behind the scenes that ‘Mac’ can’t talk about can’t talk about. When he was working as a bar manager in Soi 6 he would have been breaking the law in multiple ways – not least pimping. He’s back at it again in a new bar called ‘Deluzion.’
But in Pattaya laws are to be broken – but at a cost.
Night Wish Staff ‘tag-teamed’ and ‘spit-roasted’
Former employees have told how senior staff ‘tag-teamed recruits’ and ‘spit-roasted’ young women hired as ‘cashiers’ and ‘PR staff’ in Soi 6.
One former bar manager claimed that on days the bars were closed by government order – such as during last week’s Thai election – they had ‘lock-ins’ bars which managers and other male members could attend. “And these were orgies.”
But Flowers would view this as showing his generosity. He was letting the women earn some money on these irregular days off by letting them earn money having sex with his male staff!
I am not going to go into detail into these claims. They came as no surprise. We have already shown how Flowers shared his new recruits around his senior staff and investors.
But below is a photo, edited to protect the women and in good taste, which sums up what went on in the Night Wish Group. The photo is not A.I generated.
Vagellis Poulios, was the only foreigner in the original ‘Night Wish Group’ listed on Thailand’s Department of Business Developent and listed as managing director. But shares were transferred to Flowers’ wife before the company was liquidated in 2017.
That’s him again on the right.
Another person who featured highly in the complaints was Scott Schulz who, having married a Night Wish girl made nightly forays to Soi 6 for his own gratification.
Schulz was Nightwish’s Chief of Operations. who at the same time operated Bitcoin scams under Flowers’ umbrella.
He was Managing Director of the New Dawn Fund, blocked by the Australian Securities and Investment Commission, and also launched the Malta Digital Fund and Lendefi. Victims of Lendefi have contacted this site.
Schulz ran these swindles together with a former schoolmate from Melbourne, Robin Dey, who runs a company in Chiang Mai, on a digital nomad visa. In Australia Dey was sentened to ten years for manslaughter.
After the under-aged sex trafficking police raid Vagellis had fled back to Greece.
“Flowers complained about ‘Vag’s’ departure, but Flowers and Schulz both had escape plans in the event their operation crashed,” claimed Adam |Howell.
As for Flowers himself; he has admitted repeatedly that he was a ‘monger’ ever since arriving in Thailand. He even ran tours around the red-light areas and declared himself ‘Professor Monger’. He detailed his sex life in lurid detail, and referring to Thai women as sluts, on the web.
But later, due perhaps to his re-invention as an ‘successful entrepreneur,’ and the actions he was taking against other people, he closed his ‘Jizzflicker’ website down and ordered his sex partners to be delivered to him.
Staff said he would text them to send girls to pre-booked rooms at, among other places – ‘The Full Love Hotel’ in Pattaya – a drive-to-your-door short-time hotel nearby. Flowers has publicly admitted his misdemeanours and also to his wife. She needs to tolerate it, he said.
According to Howell, Flowers grew bored of women and progressed to ladyboys. This appears to be corroborated in scores of pornographic photos he sent to Howell featuring only ladyboys, and also a central theme – in much too graffic detail – in explicit narratives on Flowers’ websites www.beltsofmongering.com and www.jizzflicker.com. (discretion advised)
He also has two ladyboy websites, and submitted posts under the name ‘internationalhardman’ , one of his many internat aliases, on a ladyboy review site.
The real dark side
Another former bar manager summed up the situation quite succinctly. He is now ashamed.
“We refered to Flowers as blackshirt.“
“A lot of the the women took to the business enthusiastically and were able to buy all the fashionable clothes, latest mobile phones, and even build houses back in the provinces for their families. But, once they had done that, they left. But there was a very dark side,” he said.
“Many of the girls, who were dropped off in the Soi 6 bars, were clearly frightened. They came in country clothes. They had never worn make-up before, nor fashionable shoes. They initially staggered around in heels.
“They had to be taught all that. It was so very sad to see the expressions on their faces when they came down back to the bar after a customer had taken them to one of the rooms upstairs for the first time,” he added.
Asked how he felt doing what he did, he replied: “At first it was fun. Now, I feel really ashamed. It was’nt a good thing to have done.”
He disputed Flowers’ records Night Wish Group records which showed an overall drop out rate of recruits of 57 per cent within the first month.
“No. It must have been 80 per cent at least,” he insisted.
********************
Acting Under Orders
That Flowers’ Thai wife Phunippa was acquitted of the serious trafficking charges last July after, claiming she did not know about the day to day running of the operation, was probably not a surprise to many in Pattaya, including investors to investors to whom he kept a running commentary, of which we have a copy.
Flowers himself was never touched. This was because, despite proclaiming what he owns on numerous websites, and in YouTube videos. he does not put his name on anything. He did not want to go to jail, he said in a video.
Those, sentenced to 21 years were William Reece Bilton, from Barrow-in-Furness, and cashiers Janranya ‘Kwang’ Keepear, and Saifon Khanyayiam. They were jailed for what their bosses had ordered them to do. (And Vlogger Mac could have also found himself in a similar position).
Their principal orders were to sell girls, and drinks as fast as possible, and to promote their girls in the social media including Facebook, (and with more revealing pictures) on Flowers ‘Pattaya-Addicts.com. Soi 6 forum.
Bilton, 32, from Barrow-in-Furness, had put the 16-year-old’s photo on Faceboook, and had rented her out, Bangkok Criminal Court was told.
At the trial it was revealed that the licence holder of ‘The Flirt Bar’ had never even been to the premises.
It was a Thai nominee (Phunnipa’s brother) holding the business for Flowers. But ATIP police discovered that all the money went into Phunippa’s bank account.
BRITISH AND AUSSIE MANAGERS WORKED AS PIMPS ON EDUCATION VISAS
It was also revealed at the trial that Bilton was working illegally in the bar and was in Thailand on an education visa, probably the same as Mac, the vloggeer in his first Soi 6 bar as an employee.
And who arranged educational visas?
Initially it was a Thai language school in Pattaya But recently it had become Flowers’ Rage Fight Academy.
In fact, for nearly ten years up to the time of the raid Flowers had employed mainly British and Australian bar managers on education visas (illegal) and without work permits (illegal).
He also put the bars in the names of Thai nominees (illegal) and avoided substantial taxes (fraud) by declaring all the entities as individual ownerships – while all the cash went into his wife’s bank account.
Several factors have combined to create Soi 6 what it has become today. From being a relatively quiet Soi where male tourists could have a drink, and a lot else, on the way back from the beach in its closed bars, it is now a gaudy, neon-lit, newly paved street, with up to young 2000 women in revealing attire, enthusiastically beckoning male customers to come in.
Passersby would not get any hint of some of the agonies underneath. Though street fights are regularly featured on YouTube, while Flowers’ Pattaya News controls the optics. These most often feature security guards – one of Flowers’ innovations to the Soi.
New contacts gave us access to Facebook Messenger Groups set-up for bar managers. Here they were able to ogle new arrivals and act, as investor Adam Howell put it, ‘like a pack of wolves.’
They could also summon security from their mates if they wanted more guards to deal with customers who refused to pay their bar bills.
An American was beaten last week for refusing to pay. -search Pattaya Fights on YouTube. After he came around the American showed his receipt!
That’s Adam Judd on the left answering Stephen’s call for security.
But the Pattaya News never seems to get their fight news correct.

From Pattaya to the World: Bryan Flowers’ Unstoppable Rise as a Global Entrepreneur
Comment:
Nick Dean announced a forthcoming video this week. He said it would be filmed at a Texas Barbecue restaurant and Bryan Flowers would really tell all. He has billed this as MOAB ‘The Mother of All Bombs’ But don’t expect Flowers to get a grilling. And do expect some ham acting from a much maligned family man.
FOOTNOTE: The ‘Mother of All Bombs’ has arrived but the fuse was wet. It’s already been giving bad reviews bu they are all being deleted. I will address this in the next factual story tomorrow.
