Tour buses will soon be a thing of the past when Pattaya's monorail gets up & running!  The first phase (2021-2026) as reported in BP today is already two years behind schedule as they have done the multi-million baht biennial feasibility check yet; usually by a relative of the mayor.

Just to share, A close relative of mine who has bipolar, got refused treatment at a UK hospital, he walked out and sat in the road, a bus came around the corner and hit him, he needed to be airlifted to hull hospital, he has recovered now, but because they determined the bus was actually speeding, he has been paid out 250,000 pounds. just saying.
