Bangkokians Dub State Efforts to Combat PM2.5 as Ineffective: Poll
File photo In a recent survey conducted by the National Institute of Development Administration (NIDA), a significant portion of Bangkok's residents expressed dissatisfaction with the efforts of state agencies in managing the capital's persistent PM2.5 pollution crisis. This pressing environmental issue has seen growing public concern over government actions and their efficacy. The poll, aimed at gauging public perception, highlighted that a hefty 76.49% of respondents rated the government’s handling of the PM2.5 pollution as less than efficient. Specifically, 41.15% found the efforts to be somewhat inefficient, while 35.34% considered them completely inefficient. Only 3.13% of those surveyed felt the interventions were very efficient, indicating widespread public discontent. Despite the government's initiative of offering free public transport for a week in a bid to mitigate pollution levels, the measure appears to have fallen flat with the populace. A substantial 68.78% of participants opined that this initiative had little to no impact on reducing PM2.5 levels, with only 6.72% acknowledging a significant benefit. The response from City Hall, which included closing educational institutions and promoting remote work among private and public sector employees, received mixed reactions. While some 34.89% believed these moves were somewhat helpful, a closer look revealed scepticism: 33.21% thought they did very little, and 24.50% said they were ineffective. When queried about which government entity should take the lead in battling Bangkok's ultrafine dust woes, the Pollution Control Department was favoured by 41.15% of respondents. Other bodies, like the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration and the Department of Royal Rainmaking and Agricultural Aviation, also featured prominently in public expectations. Interestingly, 17.56% of those surveyed expressed a lack of faith in any government agency to effectively combat the pollution problem, reflecting a growing frustration that underscores the urgent need for more impactful solutions. The comprehensive survey, carried out via telephone interviews with 1,310 individuals aged 18 and above, encapsulates a broad spectrum of Bangkok’s demographic fabric, spanning diverse educational, income, and occupational backgrounds. This growing public perception serves as a clarion call for the Thai government and related bodies to reassess their strategies and enhance their response to one of the city’s most pressing environmental challenges. With the economic impact tied to the health implications of pollution, the urgency for effective measures becomes increasingly critical as residents seek relief from the choking haze, reported Bangkok Post. -- 2025-02-01 -

What has happened to you? Want Rooney back?
What's going on at Pride Park? Right down there with the other relegation clubs. 7 league losses on the spin. Bundled out of the FA Cup by a mid-table 3rd string club. Rooney was an unlucky manager for The Rams. They could't overcome that points deduction. Could they get him back? -
