Ship him out today! Let USA deal with its social misfits and alcoholics!

This guy refused meter to go Aussie Embassy from Sukhumvit 23. He wanted 300 Baht for a 60 Baht journey.

Jerk!

I will go to the Government Office but hope to build enough local Nong Pong support first to get a crowd with me. 

As a recent resident in Nong Pong village, part of Wichian Buri I was horrified at the state of the road to our village which has had no major maintenance for years!

Further to this I was absolutely appalled that effluent from sewerage operators is being dumped in sugar cane fields. Our town relies on ground water for everything and the thought of contamination is horrific.

i have sent the following letter to the District Government Office and would like anyone who has further experience to comment.

Chief Executive

Wichian Buri District Office

Provincial Highway 2012, Tha Rong, Wachian Buri, Phetchabun, 67130

DEAR SIR/MADAM

I am an Australian farang living in the Nong Pong village part of the Borang of the Wichian Buri District. 

I wish to raise with your office a number of concerns which are the responsibility of the

District Office.

Firstly, the state of the road from Wichian Buri to Nong Pong which has fallen into total disrepair. Yes this has been partially due to floods, however the lack of any maintenance now making the road virtually unusable!

It is imperative that action is taken to grade and reset the road level to permit water drainage on the unsurfaced sections. The sealed sections urgently need potholes repaired or the road will further deteriorate and become irreversible and further deterioration will result.

The second matter I wish to raise is that of private effluent removalist dumping human excrement in sugar can fields along the Wichian Buri to Nong Pong Road. The Government Officials should exercise the local powers to fine and prosecute these operators. The practice is extremely dangerous to human health and could result in an epidemic of very large proportion.

I am happy to discuss these matter, however my Thai is limited and would suggest any discussion be in English.

Yours faithfully
