    Koh Samui is the same - almost zero tourists.  We have a small Resort and for the first time in 14 years, we have a two week gap of no Tourists at all.  Sadly I have become very sceptical of numbers quoted by TAT over the years, which tend to be contradicted by other Thai Agencies shortly after they publish their figures.

    How many new hotel rooms in Samui since 14 years?

    I have to slightly disagree with you on that...the soi dogs often overturn rubbish bins and rip open bags causing the rubbish to blow about all over the place..even though the humans have done everything correctly by putting their rubbish in the bin.

    And sometimes the bird and rat.

    And sometime the poor people look for the recycle leave a mess. I hate them when they do that way.

     

    but we make the rubbish. Only human make rubbish.

    Well, all farangs are dumb, after all, right? (sarcasm, of course) 

    No, Donald Trump, leader of the farang world, is very clever.

    I do hope it backfires magnificiently on Thailand. They need to be squeezed to shape.

    The immigrant live here but the people fail? Against us. Nice guy?

     

    A problem in Thailand is foreigner want to invest in Thailand now. But the government restrict the money can come in, because they try to control the baht, because too strong against the weak ones.

    Banks only allow it USD$50,000 per day. 

     

    My friend want to sell Phuket resort for US$110 million. Have two foreign buyer want to buy now. But difficult to bring the money here. Have other resort in Phuket have the same problem. 

    Can do, but they want 37% tax plus 7% VAT.

    I'm still waiting for a list of the official government recycling sites where ( Thai ) people can take their "stuff"  like old Tv's,

    Take the old tv to the tv repair shop. They recycle some of the part. 

    Some will give you a little money.

    same with fridge.

    sofas, building rubble etc

    Must go to “landfill” site. Some is government, some is private. They not accept house rubbish (because it smell and make the gas, not good for landfill). Also no trees etc. 

    Nothing that “alive” before.

    If  your  own people are  too  dirty/lazy to   keep their own country clean, who am i to interfere, I keep your country clean by not throwing my  rubbish on the ground.

    I not do it for the people.

    i do it for the animal.

     

    animal do not make this problem. People do it.

     

    You don’t want to help. Don’t criticize me because I do it.

     

    if everybody think “another person job”, that is the problem.

     

    You live Pattaya?

    The dirty place with many farang.

    Maybe thai think “why should I do it for farang”.

    Maybe farang think “If  your  own people are  too  dirty/lazy to   keep their own country clean, who am i to interfere,”

    = dirty

    Its  clear from answers  like this you do  not  fully  understand the problem of "burning it away from people" do you think that burnt air stays  right where you lit the fire?

    You do not fully understand how we burn it. A big, quick fire. Kilometer from anybody. Up to the wind, sometime go over the ocean.

     

    Do you think it better to drive it to the dump so they can burn it?

    or just leave it to be washed back into the ocean so the sea animals die?

     

    if you have better way, I will do it. I don’t like to burn. I will do your way if it better.

     

    we recycle everything we can. 

     

    what happen to your rubbish? Please tell me.

    Nobody consider the truly amazing amount of toxic <deleted> produced when you burn plastics. So you clean the area but poison the atmosphere with one big burn.

    Let me know when and where  the next  big burn is so I can stay well away.

    So you want to drive the rubbish to the dump to burn it? That would be more pollution. Fuel for the truck.

     

    We don’t do it near people.

    I'm pleased that you can see which are the problem areas. Can you bring your beach team team to Issan and clean the whole area up for us?

    Are there any other areas you think would benefit from your clean-up team, or is it only Issan that's bad?

    Sorry, I am very busy. You have to clean up your area yourself. 

     

    The north, and central is also bad, but I think Isssan have the most rubbish. Tourism area like pattaya also terrible.

     

    The south people work together, not just complain, we do! 

    Look at #51 in thred below. 

    Is possible if take care. Is where I live. Have the photo. 

    Everyone help together.
