Massage ladies show off their butts at City Hall!

 

Picture: Pattaya News

 

A meeting held at Pattaya City Hall was presented with 110,000 cigarette butts collected at Jomtien since the start of February.

 

They were collected by ladies who run massage on the beach where the ban on smoking was brought in on February 1st.

 

The ladies - dressed in yellow at the meeting with deputy mayor Wichian Pongpanich - have been praised as being instrumental in disseminating information to people about the ban.

 

 

They have been telling their customers that they would be fined 2,000 baht though statutes for damaging the environment call for fines up to 100,000 baht and even a year in jail.

 

The offending butts were in plastic water containers in front of the main speakers' table for all to see at the meeting.

 

In reporting the story Pattaya News did not say if anyone had been fined yet or if the cigarette butts collected were part of old stocks already on the beach before February or had recently been deposited there.

..."they would be fined 2,000 baht though statutes for damaging the environment call for fines up to 100,000 baht and even a year in jail...."

 

So who from the Pattaya City Administration is going to cough up 100,000 or go to jail for pumping endless streams of <deleted> and god knows what else into the sea 24/7.....for damaging the environment ?

It's smoke and mirrors at Cha Am, where there are now official "Smoking Areas" signposted at intervals along the four-kilometer foreshore above the beach, but without any indication of where they start or end.

 

There appears to be only one clearly-delineated, dedicated smokers' "refuge" - a shaded area with  seats and ornamental shrubs - opposite the Raja resort and restaurant. The tent-like structure has no walls, so the smoke is not contained.

 

I was under the impression the smoking ban applies only to beaches. If this is the case then surely the whole of the  Cha Am foreshore, which offers free parking for visitors and provides a living for vendors of deckchairs and sunshades, should be exempt.

Those beach smoking rooms are just going to be as successful as the Bangkok bike lanes.

love it.  I am disgusted every time I see people, foreigners and Thais walking down the street and then just tossing the butt into the storm drain.
