Filthy Sidewalk - No help

Featured Replies

  • Popular Post

This is the sidewalk outside MRT HuayKwang the day AFTER I personally complained to five health / safety cops about the mess and smell. The mess is as bad as it gets ironically on this day - but it's the horrid, smell that is so off-putting

 

Calling cops attention to anything is hopeless

If you try to clean it yourself, will you need a work permit???   lol

 

I would NEVER complain to the cops about anything that doesn't 100% negatively affect me.

 

smell, trash, noise, nah......................I've been in Thailand for more than a week, I understand things.

 

Maybe try Singapore.   very clean.

Where does one find a health/safety cop, is that a real thing ?

  • Popular Post

Send photo and waste sample to Bangkok governor. Sidewalks are managed by BMA.

 

Don't forget the GPS coordinates...

They were standing around inspecting the work of the sidewalk sweeper. Her work was perfectly fine - this is a health hazard. Uniformed and even a superior

Seriously, just go back to where you came from.... and I don't mean Huay Kwang which is a major flooding area of Bangkok. Your fault for moving there. It's like calling the cops on homeless in Skid Row.

You are a laff and a half.

 

I have lived in HuayKwang for thirteen years.

 

I'd been living here for a donkey's age BEFORE that ad hoc garbage dump for a few tiny slums on the side was even created. Apparently so lazy they cannot even bag their trash (which is now apparently an ordinance bc all the trash trucks here now work only with bagged trash.

 

I can tell by your post you know little of Bangkok and even less about HuayKwang. Flooding, rarely lol mmmm 2010 I think.

 

What a strident, arrogant and worthless opinion.

You'll forgive me OP but you appear to making a first world complaint in a third world country.

Does it smell like <deleted> or rancid grease? I'm other words, the vulture test.  Could be a sewer issue. 

So are all 4 letter words for excrement deleted?

It's household waste. Yes, sour and rancid. Amazing bc Rhythm Ratchada 50m away as is Ideo and Ibis Hotel.

This is absolutely moronic. The Bangkok Subway compares to any subway around the world. It is first class.

 

This mess is less than 3 m from their property markers.

 

I've been in Thailand for an East Asia for 30 years. I've traveled all over the Indian subcontinent as well as spending years in Indonesia. I don't need any lectures about what should be or be not.

 

This should be not

 

in modern Bangkok which just went live with another recreational park just today.

 

This is dead center Bangkok. The MRT stop itself is perhaps four stops away from Sukhumvhit.

Whoa, calm down! At the risk of provoking you further let me just say that your description doesn't change the facts. Anyway, good luck, I hope you get it sorted, try not to kill too many posters on that journey!

Looks like spoiled milk, and that dies get seriously rancid smelling. I'll use the other MRT exit by the temple instead when we cone back to BKK for a visit to a friend's in Huay Kwang next week. Must get crazy to year to BKK during the Chinese New Years, but then he is a Chinese American we will be dining with....thanks for the heads up.

I'm sorry but this just so funny. Farangs alerting each other as to which exit to take from MRT stations because a patch of the pavement outside one of them is smelly and dirty......in Bangkok!

Neither of these posts contribute anything to the conversation.

 

I don't know where you live pal but I live in Bangkok and the city of Bangkok is not third world.

This is even more funny.

 

Another absolutely worthless babbling post.

 

The post was initially about the irony of me alerting the safety and health police to that sanitation mess yesterday only to return today to find it even more dirty.

 

The second hilarious thing about this thread is that it somehow has taken on a life of me whining about my third world existence.

 

The next bit of stupidity is a form member found what I posted of it helpful and thought that would provide for him and opportunity to divert from that mess I mean why look at it? Then, we have people with endless time on their hands that have to somehow post about the four member finding something helpful or useful in my post and somehow that becomes the focus of the thread.

 

That is insane

I live in Chiang Mai and I'm not your pal! The World Bank defines the Thai economy as developing, one step above emerging.
