MY GOD. I hope Soi Six is going to be ok.

Probably will; I've noticed in Pattaya sand mostly flows downhill and garbage mostly stays put. ?

Poland Baltic sea this weekend 38528933_2075406032529751_1301923549421764608_n.jpeg

No Thailand 4.0 project could have ever been washed away by the sea. It must have been Polish tourists who stole the Pattaya sand...:cheesy:

I heard that they want to put in a pipe from the road out to sea for storm water drain to stop exactly this kind of run off erosion, but the big hotel next to that corner blocked it, as any pipe that spew murky water, (which although is not sewage) in the water is bound to look bad/worse that what it already is

The beach from the Baltic coast in Poland looks like a ghastly experience....not my style at all. As for Pattaya and the beach replenishment project, did they even consult a coastal environment expert before launching off into this project as looks like a complete screw-up? Sorry, rhetorical question...hmmm.

An engineering feat to be sure! Oh...I intended to say folly. I guess covering up all of the trash didn't work. Maybe pushing the sand into the sea and covering up some of the sewage will help?

No logic needed. Someone somewhere must have a stake in these types companies.

 

  • Sand Quarry.
  • Trucking Company
  • Plant rental or a construction business.

On going repeat business

No worries, Godfather Somchai has these and more covered. Now that he is back out of jail and has his sons working in the Green's "government" all is back to normal in the eastern seaboard.

This is a beach in Rayong, so somewhere in Thailand there's someone who knows what a groynes is and does

 

Is is from a brochure ? in reality it also looks like a dump !

I'm not sure they are groynes, the rocky structures look more like breakwaters to prevent

storm damage head on. Groynes are designed to stop erosion by longshore drift.

Yea but think tourism and numbers.

Any kind of "project" in Thailand done,  controlled or organized by governmental agencies is just to be done to fill up private pockets!!!!!!

Spread a rumour that the higher bits left are covering piles of shrimp in bags. Afer half an hour all the high bits will have been shoved into the low bits.

Level sand done for free. ?

River sand for beaches......what a waste!

It's a shame the engineering skills here are very poor......but someone made a lot of money...now a new budget for sand replacement on the cards!

that the 400 million baht of sand is already being washed into the sea

:cheesy::cheesy::cheesy:

A few got very rich out of this.

Pi$$ up.

Brewery.

Organize.

Cannot.

****************

Surely there is paperwork for this 400 mil?

Surely Mr P in his all encompassing busy bee sort- out-every-little-problem of this country could check up on just a weansy peansy bit of corruption here.

I mean, deck chairs seemed easy enough....
