Me too. What comments are expected? Oo look at the nice pile of rubbish, so neatly stacked Definitely left by dirty tourists, thankfully quality tourist numbers are on the rise and this will result in less rubbish on the streets Pattaya clean-up led by conscientious motor-bike taxi drivers achieves amazing results Perplexed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcpattaya Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 The amount of dirt just keeps piling up. Do YOU ever see cleaner/workers? Nope - Thais do not care. The ONLY care about MONEY. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somchai Logic Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Pattaya - trumpeted in TAT handouts as Asia's Miami - is once again in the news for one of its unkept secrets - rubbish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsiaHand Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 I remember when BJ set up his brush arbor under the palm trees with 5 stools to sit at the 6 foot long bar.We were drinking on the road side away from the beach in the afternoon watching two Thai families enjoying the beach.There were a couple of litter cans on the beach side of the road.When the two families left they passed a litter can but just discarded all their trash between their eating area and the road .Since most of the Farangs drinking with BJ had spent their earlier years in Japan,to us this was a learning experience of how trashy the Thais are.Thais WILL NEVER change.

Cake Monster Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 This site is from outside Wat Chai in Pattaya Tai, and is rubbish that is thrown in a heap by the Market Traders on the opposite side of the road. However, what the photo does not depict, is the awful stench from the rotting vegetables Etc, and all along the Street from the main entrance to the Wat, to the Bank there is the stink of Urine. This will have nothing at all to do with the Tourists, or the Monks that inhabit the Wat, but is probably caused by the late night drinkers and the Moto Taxi Drivers that throng the area. Altogether, a cess pit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dallen52 Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 2 hours ago, Borzandy said: Usually, monks throw garbage directly over the wat s wall Is it below the monks to pick up rubbish from outside of their home? Free home, free food, free clothes, smokes, mobile phones. Plenty of cash offerings. Can leave when ever they want to do. Not exactly as if they raise a sweat is it? Silly question I suppose. If the Thai people who put it there won't clean up. The monks sure as, are not going to do it either. It was ripe yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaidream Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Thais will change when tickets and fines are handed out for throwing trash in the street or littering in general. Pattaya actually could be a 5 star resort if the people in charge actually cleaned the place up and kept it pristine. That would involved daily garbage collection; a waste treatment plant; cleanup of the sea and beach; elimination of scams; moving the sex industry further into the shadows; restraining police corruption and cracking down on the criminal element that calls Pattay home. I doubt it will ever happen. A once beautiful resort has literally been destroyed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
africasiaeuro Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 For reasons unknown to me, Pattaya never appealed to me even back in the seventies. It stayed this way until now. If I like to go to a beach I visit Vietnam, and so far I haven' t come across similar scenes. Plus a mere 2 h drive gives me the serenity of cool mountain air. I fail to see the hype about Pattaya.

farcanell Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 ??? come on TAT.... thinking cap time. I’m sure there’s a unique opportunity here for one of those daft reality TV shows. maybe something involving proffessional garbage collectors on holiday, showing how it’s done, within a one hour time slot.
