Rimmer Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Koh Larn sanitation chief glosses over trash crisis KOH LARN:--Koh Larn’s trash problems are being handled with hopes that the island’s massive garbage backlog could be eliminated by 2020, Pattaya business leaders were told. The Pattaya Business & Tourism Association moved its monthly meeting to Koh Larn on Aug. 17 to see for itself the extent of the resort island’s trash crisis and what is being done to resolve it. Island sanitation chief Itthiphol Nethiyakub Singkornkaew glossed over the severity of the problem, telling members not to worry, it’s all being handled. Itthiphol acknowledged Koh Larn has been overrun with both garbage and sewage-management problems, but claimed measures approved in recent months by the Pattaya City Council are inching toward enactment and will work to solve the problem. Itthiphol said some projects are in the procurement phase while some are at the contract-signing point. In the case of hauling away Koh Larn’s garbage backlog, the terms and prices for a contractor have been set and are moving toward the bidding stage.

brommers Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 I see he actually admits that the process is inching forwards. So only a decade to go before work on anything actually starts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classic , classic indifference .. Thailand needs to wake up to the damage that these images can inflict on their reputation as a world class holiday destination courtesy of sosh' media .. They got in a tizz earlier this week 'bout some dude putting up a clip featuring swimming pool petting .. The Koh Larn images I suggest would have a greater negative effect on the rep' ..
