webfact Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Daily News Thai Caption: Collapse from subsidence A video showed the first moment a wall behind a well known coffee shop at a Nakhon Nayok gas station came crashing down. The aftermath was extensive damage behind the store and to other properties adjacent. It happened in Sri Nawa sub-district of the central Thailand province. Non Thaweechai, 25, said he had a lucky escape. He was with his child in a room out the back and heard a crashing sound. He got his child to safety before seeing the wall come crashing down. He said there had been heavy rain but he blamed a backhoe and pipe laying in the soi behind for causing subsidence. The owners and the gas station are calling on those responsible to step forward, reported Daily News. -- © Copyright ASEAN NOW 2022-09-13 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

RichardColeman Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Honestly, the mentality of Thai builders here is shocking. What sort of twit builds on 4ft of sand ? Few rain storms and of course it will collapse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
