Hey you clown, How about just fixing the paths and sidewalks for people pushing wheelchairs and pushchairs.  To describe Pattaya as some kind of Megapolis when you cannot even use pushchairs without risking throwing your child out into the road just shows how useless you bunch of idiots truly are !

Amen. It is difficult enough even if not in wheelchairs or pushchairs. State of walkways may put you in one, however.

They are beyond atrocious. Vendors encroaching as near Tukcom so much have to take chances in streets. Random bits of cast iron poking up. Uneven levels, power line posts in the middle of sidewalk... on and on

Along with those items, how about hiring all those unemployed to clean up the trash on side sois, streets, empty lots, etc?

They have made beach road Jomtien clean, but then got rid of trash cans? Explain that. Walk ten feet off beach road and looks like city dump. I guess they just can't see it. Does not register in their reputed minds.

The only thing i estimate  to get realized within 5 years of time is: Infrastructure improvements for IT. Cost 500 million baht.

Entice them with what exactly? The Dolphin Roundabout? The one g-string that's left on Soi 6?

[brucegoniners]

So more construction is going to make the city "more livable"? Now you can't drive anywhere without huge traffic jams because of all the construction. If there was anywhere close to the normal amount of tourist traffic this city would be at a standstill. It almost is anyway. 

 

The city is very much NOT livable right now Mr. Mayor. More construction won't help. And knowing you you'll do it all at once, not a little bit at a time.

 

Ridiculous!

Always in the sewer these Government folks are

[eeworldwide]

Ive been living in Thailand for 17 years and for as long as I can remember there have been building works going on the road into pattaya. Its the most corrupt place on earth. Even with 80Trillion they would never complete the proposed works. 

 

Anyway - all that aside - the Virus nonsense has only just begun. It will be years before anythign gets back to normal for tourism. The better idea would be to demolish it completely and rebuild it from the ground up - without focussing on tourists.

[ThailandRyan]

How is the under the overpass sport court going?

[kcpattaya]

Hard to believe these people are actually appointed as a mayor of a city like Pattaya?!?!
The sheer nonsense to announce an 80 Billion Baht investment into Pattaya city!
They can't even plan their road construction works without months and months of delay!
How often has Pattaya's drain system has been improved? 
"Work in progress" - year to year.

Whens the spaceport coming and the Moon shuttle I mean if your'e  going to invent stuff at least make it  mildly believable.

There is nothing anyone can say to ever get positive feedback on here. Your lives must be utterly miserable. Many of you with thousands of posts saying the same thing day after day.  Leave if you don't like it.... Some of you must have been here for 7 years writing 2 negative posts a day to "amuse" yourselves. 

 

Absolutely correct…these degenerate naysayers are a blight on the community and deserve a harsh scolding. But fear not, a new world beckons…and there’s certainly an important place for positive thinkers like you in the glittering, transcendent, and wondrous future of ‘Neo-Pattaya.’

where's the Casinos  &  luxury  hotel's   ?     that's the only thing that'll kick start Pattaya again.    imo

Ask your fearless leader to invest a few of his billions into a new Casino along with his Chinese friends like they did in Cambodia. I am sure you have his ear.

[dluek]

Maybe they should put some of that 80 billion towards aiding some of the tourism related businesses and workers?

I have to agree ...  all they seem to do post their misery at how they feel about Thailand and it's government, funny thing is half if not most of them probably don't even live here now. Must live a sad life if that's all they have to fill the day in. Miserable sods.  imo

Thailand really doesn't need people with your attitude, you need to get a hobby or look for somewhere more appealing,  sad to see you post such negative comments every day. look elsewhere so you'll be happier.

Really, it was a response to you asking where the Casino's and Luxury hotels were.  He can afford to build and bring more happiness to the people by creating more jobs, just like you say he is currently doing.  I do not see it as my having an attitude.  It goes hand in hand with what you would like to see, or is it not.

Yes, but he intends to fix the drains????

[Dionigi]

What about car parks to cut down the congestion of roadside parking and clear the roads for traffic to move. What about sending the flood water to the lakes that feed Pattaya's taps and cleaning it before it gets here.
