BANGKOK — The city administration is to spend at least 69 million baht to redevelop the area behind the Mahakan fort wall, the deputy governor said Sunday.

 

Following the eviction of all Mahakan Fort, or Pom Mahakan, residents two weeks ago, Bangkok deputy governor Jakkapan Piew-ngam said the administration plans to finish building a public park in its place within this month, while the fort’s preservation program as a historical monument will take another two years.

Getting it all nice and schmicko for the crooked land administrators to sell off to the next influx of encroachers. Or for use as free housing for those who can be of use to the government in helping it get elected.
