PHUKET:-- Hotels in Kamala are set to face temporary closure if they are found to have been releasing untreated wastewater into the Ketnee Canal a local official government official has confirmed today.

 

Speaking to The Phuket News this morning (Feb 12), Deputy Chief Executive of Kamala sub-district Administrative Organisation (OrBorTor) Nopporn Karuna said, “We have been informed of the untreated wastewater appearing at Kamala Beach, which appears to be flowing from the Ketnee Canal. I have asked Phuket Provincial Public Health Office to inspect the area.

 

“I believe the cause of this problem is hotels and rental houses in the area releasing untreated wastewater into the canal. However, it will take about fifteen days for us to clarify this,” he said.

Fifteen days sounds very like a payment due date.

Threatened ? Just do it you gutless a-holes.

All beaches have dirty Klongs leading to the beach.
Kata and Karon are just the same with the greyish murky water backing up until a downpour washes it out.

Next to Centara Grand at the North at of Karon is putrid as is the behind club med one.
The island is basically one huge septic tank.
I also recommend nobody to drink the well water whatsoever. Septic tanks have polluted the island groundwater.

I walked by it an hour ago and it STINKS!!! All Kamala's klongs stink but that was revolting. 

 

Combined with the construction runoff turning Kamala Beach brown, the situation is disgusting. 

 

So it goes in Kamala.

Why is the waste water not passed through septic tanks. That's the usual way. Then the sludge is sucked out by a tanker  and deposited as the sewage treatment plant. Oh wait that that's just discharge in the klong.
