PHUKET: Four of the five landfill sites at the incinerator complex at Saphan Hin are already full. The fifth – and last – remaining site is nearly also full, Phuket City Mayor Somjai Suwansupana has revealed.

 

The news was delivered directly to Phuket Governor Phakaphong Tavipatana during an inspection visit to the Phuket Solid Waste Incineration Plant – the only solid waste disposal centre on the island – yesterday (Oct 29).

 

“On average, from October 2017 through September 2018, about 925 tons of waste was delivered every day,” Phuket City Mayor Somjai Suwansupana explained.

They have a incinerator down there that hasn't worked in years that they claim is too costly to repair. Well to the governor of Phuket get your flipping finger out of your ass and call in some experts to fix the damn thing. Sure your going to lose face because of all the money that has gone missing but what price progress. Look to the long term people are going to say you fixed their garbage problem they love you long time maybe even give you extra term ur!!!
