This is a developing event.

Only a bit of smoke  and one rescue van...

 

But developing.

Bangkok

And not a policeman in sight. I suppose the view from the air-conditioned police box on the junction with Nana is good enough!

Fire started on top floor of  Asian restaurant...Alif Laila...thankfully no casualties....fire service responded quickly. Fire now out.

 

 

Expect traffic congestion in Soi 3 coming into the city...

Good to hear that they got the fire out and there were no casualties.

Sukhumvit Soi 3 it stands. Google is your friend, my friend. The maps are universal.

Read the thread header before you post your unnecessary question

It is probably not possible to see the east side of Soi3 from the police box as there is a Skytrain support pillar in front of the box, but the BIB are probably not interested anyway.  No money in it.

The centre of the universe, derr! ????

Fire started in the kitchen at the top floor asian restaurant.   Cooking shrimp fried rice can always be hazardous.

I heard many sirens about 7am and I looked also in that direction, and I didn't see any smoke (anymore). 

Whatever it was, it wasn't very big.

"Big fire on Sukhumvit Soi 3".

That, and being posted in the Bangkok News forum, tells you exactly whereabouts it is. 

How many "Sukhumvit Soi 3's" do you think that there are?

It's not posted in the Pattaya Forum, nor the Pattaya News forum, it's posted in the Bangkok News forum.

I believe that the starting pay for a Thai police officer is around 8,000-10,000 Baht a month, so we shouldn't be surprised when they look for "alternative" ways of getting money????

No-one forces them to take a job for that low pay, so I assume that they do because they aren't good enough at anything to get better. And that goes a long way to explaining why they are useless at policing. They are probably useless at everything else too.

Yep, they should have cleared Soi 3 and the little sois at the back already in case of explosion and flying debris. Useless.

News was I got it was from an Oman family barbecuing meat on the floor in their room.

How many "Sukhumvit Soi 3's" do you think that there are?

 

 

t was also posted in the Pattaya forum,  hence my question   how many Soi 3's ? Hundreds along the longest rd ...in Thailand,   depending on which city  or town you're referring to
