Boutique Hotel demolishers smashing nearby homes, motorbikes too

PATTAYA:--Workers demolishing South Pattaya’s Boutique Hotel seem intent on demolishing neighboring homes and motorbikes as well.

 

Under the gun to finish the job, careless contractors are smashing up the derelict hotel on Soi VC with little regard for where cement chunks, bricks, metal or anything else falls.

 

Debris has smashed onto roofs, damaged business and broken several cars and motorbikes. When confronted by angry property owners, workers put on their best “who, me?” look.

 

A 23-year-old student identified only as Patcharaporn said she heard cement crash onto her home at night and called police to tackle the problem. Not surprisingly, none of the laborers were around by the time officers appeared.

 

Representatives from the contractor have denied any responsibility.

 

Pattaya Police Chief Pol. Col. Apichai Kroppech said no one has been injured – yet – but pedestrians have been warned to avoid the area. He said authorities are asking property owners with damage to come forward and that the contractor will be held responsible for up to 10,000 baht in compensation.

55555 , why only 10.000 baht max?? This is sooo Thai....

 

 

What happened to the standard budget for 6m high hoarding around the property fencing before such work could commence?

 

Went under the table?

No regard for others and no safety standards as per usual.  Enjoy doing business with Thailand while not inside of Thailand 

I think top gear tackled demolition once and did a better job.

I hope it's lens distortion, but to me it looks like they only need to punch one or two more holes and the whole top section will fall straight into the soi...

Wouldn't be a bad idea if they demolished the whole neighbourhood.

 

These guy's seem to have some insight, keep them on the job

Four days later.

Pattaya police do not go out after dark unless there are 140 of them picking up four under-age drinkers.

yeah, and good luck suing somebody or some company for damages.  Why anybody would par their car or bike anywhere near that work site is ,,,

Nice job boys !!

Cannot rule out the possibility of sabotage as well if one were to look at its history.

Once again it displays why urgent reforms of all City Halls were required. These managers are only fit to work in BIG C under close supervision 

This fiasco has been going on for years now.
