Naklua shopkeepers told to stop flood-causing pollution

PATTAYA:--Pattaya’s deputy mayor investigated persistent flooding on Naklua Road and warned local business owners to stop littering.

 

Pattana Boonsawat and Banlue Kullavanijaya brought a group of sanitation workers to Naklua Road in front of the Kasikorn Bank building Oct. 5 where blocked sewers repeatedly caused flooding.

 

Sanitation workers opened sewer grates and found numerous obstructions caused by garbage.

 

The deputy mayors spoke to local shop and restaurant operators, telling them to stop dumping grease and other waste into sewers and to dispose of trash property so it stops washing into drains.

 

For good measure, they had staffers measure their property boundaries to catch people encroaching on public land.

One vendor near me selling Phad Thai actually has a hose pipe from her stall going into the drain in the road side with a funnel attached at her cooking station so she doesn't even have to move !!
