Hmmm, 300 million baht budget and system hasn't been used.  Must be quite a bit of pork off a 300 million baht budget.

 

“So, we had a B300-million project set up to install a wastewater-treatment system, but the system has not been used. We were later told that some parts of the system were not working,” he said.

A long long history as a bullshitter. How he continues to hold the OrBorTor position is simply unbelievable. How about an audit of all the monies that have been through this guy's paws over the last 10 years? It's a tragedy this guy has been running the Surin/Bang Tow Beach show for so long.

 

The reason there is no sewer treatment is that it was designed that way. There is no money in sewer treatment.

 

All construction in the area should be shut down until a sewer treatment plant that works is in place. Otherwise, the situation only gets worse, no?

 

The Andaman Sea is Phuket's sewer treatment. 

 

Phuket is an ongoing environmental disaster. 

 

So it goes...

Well said. Also the guy said he was not running for public office again some long time ago.

"However, Mr MaAnn also said that he has a resolution to the problem and that it will be resolved in two months." let's revisit this story in 2 months... he's had a few years to "fix" it already and has done sweet FA.

"In total, we received B355.52mn. The construction took five years, from 2012 to 2017."

 

Approximately 55.52m according to MaAnn himself.

I sense an inactive post coming.

So why have they not gone back to the company that were paid to install it and tell them to get it up and running.......or was it not part of the original contract to install a functioning facility.

Doubt it, he has been doing this for years and years, and somehow always seems to get away with it.

 

Even when other chiefs were arrested (what happened there since?), he seemed to be unaffected.

Buckets will be issued to each residence with a full instruction sheet on how to use it and where to dispose of the contents!!!

Yes , whatever happened to the OrBor Tor of Karon , and the previous Mayor of Patongs son?

Any news?

Charges dropped ?

 

Ma-Ann is turning beautiful Surin into a tip !

[NamKangMan]

I have a "resolution to the problem."

 

Mr. MaAnn resigns, immediately, and someone who can do the job takes his place.  ????
