Rimmer Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 Pattanakarn becomes trash dump PATTAYA:--A stretch of Pattanakarn Road was turned into a makeshift garbage dump and residents are none too pleased. The pile of rubbish near the Tungklom Tanman intersection emerged over several nights when an unknown party dumped plastic bags, old, big foam boxes, wooden scrap and vegetable waste along the roadway. Residents complained to Nongprue Sub-district Sept. 19, saying that the trash is a smelly eyesore, especially since the local government just spent millions of baht repaving the road and installing new lights. Officials responded by sending out a backhoe to dig a large hole and bury all the garbage on site. -- © Copyright Pattaya Mail 2017-09-29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NanLaew Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 (edited) I see at least 6 cops and a couple of police vehicles in the picture in the OP. I wonder how all those cops with transportation managed to miss all that rubbish being dumped over a period of several days. Actually, I don't wonder at all, it's just for dramatic effect... like having at least 6 cops watching a back-hoe digging a hole and burying rubbish.

They've just emerged from their nocturnal hibernation after hours of cowering in the darkness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si Thea01 Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Just wait until the decomposing rubbish starts to emit methane gas. What a mob of unintelligent twits, glad I don't live there. But wait, maybe I am being too harsh, they could be starting a methane gas plant to help in solving the local energy crisis. Gosh, could I be that wrong? Doubt it.

Good! Rubbish. Oh, forgive the pun. So are you going to invest in the new gas plant? (methane) Edited September 30, 2017 by Si Thea01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMGImInPattaya Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Unfortunately, my moobaan is located along this road. If they buried all the trash to be found around Pattaya, we could be the new SE Asia methane gas hub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johng Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I've seen many plots of land (especially Jomtien second road) that used "trash" to raise the level to equal or higher than the road then a thin layer of soil on top,leave to settle for a few months then start building "luxury villages" on it !

Yes, take a drive around South Jomtien and you'll see loads of trash. It's unreal how much there is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
