HUA HIN:– The ongoing situation concerning the controversial Soi 102 landfill site took a dramatic turn on Monday after one local resident decided to take matters in to his own hands.

 

Video footage shared to social media, which has since been removed, showed how a foreign man had parked his pick up truck across the entrance to the site, blocking access for garbage trucks – three of which were forced to turn around having been unable to dump trash.

 

The stunt was enough to catch the attention of the powers that be, with Hua Hin’s mayor arriving at the scene a short time later to hold an impromptu meeting with local residents, who continue to be angered and dismayed that the municipality decided to use nearby land for waste disposal.

Not as dramatic as a u turn going back south from Makro. 

 

Also my plants grew overnight.

Or just dropped on the side of an undeveloped soi on the way home, as happens (a lot) in Pattaya.

I don't fancy his chances.

Some one should tell the mayor that crocs of any colour are disgusting, let alone blue ones with a brown outfit, no fashion sense, or colour coordination

What a nightmare having a dump up the street from you.

 

I honestly feel sorry for the guy if he owned the property before the dump was established.

 

Thais dump everything.  Batteries, dead animals, old fuel.  Its not only all the flys, rats, cockroaches but the water is contaminated and useless to pump for potable use.

 

The stress seeing garbage truck's everyday going by.

You see in the picture the garbage on the road that's fallen off on the way to the dump. 

 

I know the Same thing happened to me.

It took years to close it and lots of money

Asked our maid what happens to the rubbish......she said she didn't know.......she would have to ask the under-maid.
