Pattaya's Pedestrian Perils: Crumbling Walkways and Traffic Chaos
Pattaya's Pedestrian Perils: Crumbling Walkways and Traffic Chaos. The city is marked by hazardous crossings, deteriorating footpaths, and a glaring lack of traffic enforcement, making it a perilous adventure for those on foot. Even controlled crossings with traffic lights fail to guarantee safety, as a surprising number of motorbikes and cars disregards the green pedestrian signal. This forces walkers to navigate cautiously, watching for reckless drivers who flout the law with astonishing regularity. Compounding the issue are the persistent obstructions caused by parked motorbikes and bustling street vendors, which regularly spill over onto the footpaths. Such obstacles can force pedestrians onto the roads themselves, raising risks in already traffic-heavy zones. Nothing New here ,No matter where one goes it's the same in in Every City /town and Village . It's their culture They Do what they want to do and don't care Where they do it . Business work and play and /or corruption. -

Fire Breaks Out at 7-Eleven Store in Sriracha, Customers and Staff Flee in Panic
Pictures from responders. A fire broke out at a 7-Eleven convenience store located at 848/46, Pong Sa Ket, Huai Prap, Sriracha, Chonburi, at 11:05 on 11 February. The emergency services were alerted and quickly dispatched fire crews from the Takian Tia and Bo Win municipal fire departments, along with officers from the Sriracha district administration and local rescue teams. Upon arrival, fire crews found the building engulfed in flames, with thick black smoke billowing from the store. Both employees and customers inside the store were evacuated to safety as the fire started and intensified rapidly. The emergency teams focused on preventing the fire from spreading further and worked for over an hour to bring the flames under control. By noon, the fire was extinguished, leaving only smoldering remains of the structure. The store and all its contents were severely damaged. Shelves were warped by the intense heat, and merchandise inside the store was completely destroyed. The building was left as a shell of its former self. Mr Thanapong Hutthamongkol, 27, a witness to the incident, reported that he saw sparks coming from a pole near the side of the store. The fire spread up the wall before anyone inside could react. As the flames grew rapidly, he alerted the staff and customers to evacuate immediately. Although a staff member attempted to use an extinguisher, it was ineffective. Realising the danger, Mr Hutthamongkol swiftly evacuated the premises and moved cars away from the parking lot, all while contacting emergency services. Chonburi police officers from the Bo Win precinct arrived at the scene to investigate and reviewed CCTV footage which captured the moments before the fire broke out. Initial reports suggest that the fire may have been caused by an electrical short circuit. The damage is estimated to be at least 5 million baht, though there were no reports of injuries. Police and fire investigators from the Chonburi Provincial Evidence Department will continue to examine the site in the coming days to determine the exact cause of the blaze. -- 2025-02-11- 1

Finally, Americans can be corrupt again in Thailand - with Trumps approval
Don't you mean a welcome acknowledgement that there are places in the world where it's virtually impossible to do business without greasing a few gub'ment palms? Why should Americans concede that business to other countries that are less prudish in their FCPA laws? Which is most of them... MAGA. Let Thailand (et al) deal with Thai (et al) corruption. Not our job.- 1
