Further surely there should be several sets of keys to critical equipment, to ensure a set can be on site from one of several access points/personnel very quickly. But surely these are not old style metal keys, there are so many newer starting systems which could be activated automatically by the water height (as mentioned) or activated by various signal systems with signal based passwords etc., by many personnel.

dallen52 Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 (edited) Just reading in the Bangkok business section. Making matters worse for Bangkok, the city is sinking at a rate of more than one centimeter a year and could be below sea level by 2030. I know the feeling, sinking 1cm a year. ????

What the hell, any chance of a bit of what you're smoking? It isn't a power plant it's a research reactor. It's also been closed down at least twice. It has an output of 1.2 MW Just to put that into perspective: The smallest reactor in the USA is over 580 MW The largest is nearly 14,000 MW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldrunner Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Only in Thailand would the politicians forward such a wane joke as "key misplaced". Hey, that's OK, I enjoy the humor but I doubt the Thai citizenry do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faulty Towers could not beat this effort, Emmanuel you are no longer alone. As most Farangs would say " things like this could only happen in Thailand". Surely someone in power had access to the keys .Is there no responsibility that go with government jobs. Not only Thailand. On my first day of work in Bogota 1973 the tallest building, the Avianca building, burned up bottom to top. They had a sprinkler system, but didn't have the key there either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farcanell Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 “Aswin said the construction contractor had not handed over the well to the city so officials had no key to turn on the pumps. "This kind of problem shouldn't happen and this is the city's fault," he said during his Tuesday inspection of a water drainage system at Soi Vibhavadi-Rangsit 44.” lol... one would hope construction companies don’t hand over keys until the job is finished, including commissioning etc. but being mindful of the fact that...TIT...
