Dead Fish Linked to City Hall Construction Site

by CityNews

 

 

CityNews – Silt from the construction of a social security office in the city hall was reported as the cause for the dozens of dead fish found in Mae Kha canal last week.

 

Chiang Mai Municipality has been investigating a case of many dead fish found collecting at a water gate along the Mae Kha canal near Lanna Hospital, suspected of dying from an unidentified pollutant in the water.

 

Locals had reported that the water had turned a milky colour and was turbid. The authorities traced the source of the turbid water back along the canal to a construction site at Chiang Mai City Hall where construction workers were draining groundwater into the canal to clear the area to build foundations for a new Social Security Office.

The Mae Kha is so polluted I am amazed that any fish live in it.  Always black and foul smelling.  Historically the source for CM drinking water. 

we in pattaya have a similar situation as they continue to dredge the bay (relocating sand for the beach)trying to repair years of abuse, and poor ''strategy'' ..coral had been washing ashore 2 years now some pieces measure 1ft across...it seems Thailand is only worried about appreances ..not the ''real unseen''damage their failed policy and corruption have  caused this once ''Amaing thailand''which has been reduced to a mere smogy hopless mess.. polo elephants,corruption riddled govt,dangerous air,hoplessness amongst the vulnerable leading to addictions ,abuse of the education system ..is anything prescious in this country???.

Chronic Envelope poisoning !

I suspect it may be cement washings from the site, which would explain the milky colour.  A simple pH test would confirm if that was the cause ( cement is caustic).

Don't worry someone just disposed the fish he got for a bargain price, after he learned they where imported from Fukushima.

Breaking news.... it was a mass suicide... confirmation expected from the autopsy report in the near to very very distant future

Only money, preferably money you are given & not earned, unless looking looking the other way is considered earning.

They were probably foreign fish, coming to Thailand for the sole reason to commit suicide...
