An Australian man has been seen collecting trash in the waters just off Kalim beach in Patong every day over the past month.

 

The Patong Surf Life Saving team report that they have seen the foreign man, an Australian national, collecting trash near the shoreline at Kalim Beach every day.

 

Every morning he heads off from his nearby accommodation nearby to go snorkelling along the shoreline collecting trash.

Ha Ha, I invite him to Chiang Mai he be busy.

I will say on my back road riding in CM, it’s very disappointing to see the volume of trash from single containers/bags to obvious midnight dumping of construction waste....

Yes, those volunteer, Thai snorkeling trash collectors would be really hurting.

fishing boats throw alot of trash and netting too. go vegetarian save the planet

 

Aaah the words of an old tune...

" Oh, my old man's a dustman,
He wears a dustman's hat,
He wears cor blimey trousers,
And he lives in a council....(thai baroom), flat " with a bit of a twist in the wording.

How sweet, a farang beach cleaner.

Does he have a work permit?

I hope he does not collect shells too, thats a 100,000.00Baht fine and a kick in the teeth.... Remember the Russian lass in Rawai???

Don't think that will be his cup of tea, there are no beaches there!

It shouldn't be necessary 

Good man.

Better headline than, "Australian snorkeler gets trashed at Kalim everyday".

In a world ideal your right but sadly we don’t live in an ideal world.

All the more reason to work together to care for what we are so lucky to share. 

Peace ????
