We farangs are just tolerated, and our opinions not at all. How many of us "FARANGS" drop the rubbish just where they are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not many - in most of "our" home countries it would not be tolerated - either by the BIB or the public at large. The "Keep Britain Tidy" campaign is a good example.

They built a French incinerator on Kho Phi Phi which has been sitting there unused for 10 years. Why? We don't like it So how do you get rid of your garbage, or do you have a dump like Koh Samui just "mouldering" away? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an Asian problem, not just a Thai problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant do you live in England so you could draw a comparison between a country where dropping rubbish is frowned upon, and one where it is accepted! Anyway, now you don't have to contend with more than 250,000 tons of festering rubbish on your doorstep, do you, but you can't blame us who remain for complaining about it!

FYI: I got more than 20 years the smell of that rubbish, I was in Hua Thanon, I try to mobilize peoples to force the island municipality to do something, none like to support it.
