  • The hub of "we just don't care".   This is pathetic, and it never seems to end.    The installation electrical specialist who did that work should hang from the top of that pole. 

  • Same at another popular ( world class family ) beach resort !! A p Local School !!   Street fair   At the Mall.

    Gives you so much faith for Thai engineers burying electrical wires in the ground in well known flood areas

No, obviously, why would you say such a purile thing? 

 

Do you have any evidence that what I said was inaccurate or that what the poster I responded to claimed was correct?...and bear in mind that conjecture, the Thaivisa variety or any other, isn't evidence.

What I respectfully suggest you do when out and about is to concentrate on street or other wiring. It may just open your eyes.....

What I, respectfully, suggest is that you answer my question, it may just open your eyes to reality.

What question...Give it to me again....

With respect, may I point out that problems of all kinds exist in the countries where the posters originate but that they seem to be overlooked as if that could never happen.  Just a few days ago, a young boy ran across a plastic grating set in the ground.  He fell into an in-ground grease trap and died.  That was outside a McDonald's in Alabama, USA.  That is now being fixed so the accident cannot re-occur.

'nuf sed.

This park...has unfortunately gone from being Phuket's sanctuary for the city folks to a digging contest place for a mix of copy artist of other Thai famous parks with bike lanes and water drainage engineers. Its totally messed up and the small feeling you actually could get of "Natural" disappeared 15 years ago.

But there the city will be liable. Here, you are s... of luck. Hence, nothing will be done to fix it, just bla bla, bla bla, but no real action.

Nothing like lighting your kids up to galvanize some repairs sure some more will be done as the death toll rises ????

Thai officials and Thai workers and Thai supervisors JUST DON'T F...ING CARE, what's one more Thai life eeh? until it's their family, child or wife. Makes me sick.
