HarrySeaman Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Personally I think they should take a look at the sewers of Paris. They started building them in 1850 and they are still working just fine. Love the way they clear them. They have a boat that has wooden blades that swing out to the sides and help form a scoop. The flowing water pushes the boat through the sewer while it scoops up the trash and greaseburgs. Here in Thailand they wouldn't even need the boats, just give a few prisoners some boards and let the rushing flood of filthy mixed rain and sewer water push them through the sewers. The prisoner's next life would be much better because of all the merit they would gain doing this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cake Monster Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Dont they realise by now, that the flooding problem is not a 218 MILLION baht one, its more like a 218 BILLION baht problem. 218 M will surely buy them a few " Aquavac " wet vacuum machines, but little else 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but the extra increase in budget is for the brown envelopes that are passed to the usual suspects for allowing some work to be seen to be done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
