    Why wasn't the event cancelled? The school authorities knew bad weather was on its way.

    Why have the children walk to school in the midst of a tropical storm?

    This is Thailand and weather like this is frequent, buildings are generally built to withstand this weather.

     

    Only thing i don't know is how long the structure was there for like how many years, generally if its old its built well with good materials however if its a new or recent build that's another story substandard building materials can be used.

     

    RIP to all that have passed away this is truly shocking

    When I first got here in 2006, I got a minor scrape on my ankle from some weed I brushed up against. The ensuing infection was very nasty. They have very different cooties over here, it takes a while for the body to build up natural immunities to them.

    same happened to a mate of mine stubbed his toe in walking street, was in hospital for days with blood poisoning

    Even back in 1985, I was advised that it was best not to walk along the footpath on the beach side of Beach Road after dark. (Even if you didn't have anything expensive on you!????).

    i was told that but when i had a bit to much to drink and bars closed (early 1990s) i would find myself doing that, we called it the walk of shame ha ha

    And what happens to all the Thais that spent money creating shops etc?

    They probly expected it and they would have made a lot of bhat already.

     

    I would say it will end up being be more controlled as what should have been done in the first place or back to being a banned substance and to the BKK Hilton if you have it
