Popular Post webfact Posted August 11, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 11, 2023 Escalating noise levels and litter are being reported on the popular beaches of Pattaya City. As a result, the city council is contemplating the introduction of strict timings for public access to these beaches, in line with the proposed beach regulations. Reports include disturbances from visitors who choose to extend their beach parties into the early hours of the morning. After investigating, it has been discovered that revelling beachgoers indulge in high-volume music and alcoholic festivities, Deputy Mayor of Pattaya City, Wutthisak Roemkitchakan revealed yesterday. Even as sanitation workers arrive for their routine morning clean-up, some party-goers remain impervious, littering the beauty of these beaches with their leftovers. According to Wutthisak, the introduction of beach timings is a potential solution aimed at mitigating these current issues. As of now, there exist no strict beach regulations dictating the operational hours of these beaches, leaving them open for public usage throughout the day. Despite attempts to increase beach patrolling, the dearth of security personnel made it an impossible task to monitor the beaches every night. by Mitch Connor Photo courtesy of expedia.com Full story: https://thethaiger.com/news/national/pattaya-city-council-weighs-beach-time-restrictions-amid-escalating-litter-and-noise -- © Copyright Thaiger 2023-08-11 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

Popular Post bkk6060 Posted August 11, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 11, 2023 I often walk it at 6am. My observations is that it is 100% young Thais drinking, yelling and blasting music. Never see a cop around must be shift change. Folks staying at the Hilton must hate it. 12 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AKA police who dislike working at night in case they meet any bad people; (they also dislike working during the day because it's hot.) 5 1 2 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they paid a premium for the sea-facing rooms! Thais got a taste for Pattaya during Covid and soon after.....can't get rid of them now....whatever happened to Baeng Saen? 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Nickcage49 Posted August 11, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 11, 2023 This is awesome! I walk along the beach in the early mornings and these drunk and drugged up kids are partying it up all night. Kick em to the curb! It's dangerous since they block the sidewalks and the streets with their cars double parked, and the food vendors are blocking lanes of traffic. Let's be rid of them!!! 6 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Lucky Bones Posted August 11, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 11, 2023 1 hour ago, Wongkitlo said: Litter problem. How about some rubbish bins. Agreed....but.... That would mean having bins: Bins need to be emptied (problem.) Perhaps bins emptied into a truck? (expensive) Truck needs to dump rubbish (small soi should do.) Drains are the answer. Put all rubbish into the nearest drain. Out of sight = out of mind.???????? 1 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest of the public should be allowed to stroll, sit and enjoy the breeze anytime they want. But, as usual, there is lack of enforcement, or the will to do so. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ignore it Posted August 11, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 11, 2023 So it seems that they can't control the situation with the police now, so they are thinking about introducing regulations to control access. So just who is going to enforce the proposed regulations? 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like they tried with bars closing? Shops and vendors will still sell alcohol after hours, close the beach they will find another location. Better to let them have use of the beach with a regular police attendance to curb those who get out of control. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco51 Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 1 hour ago, Zapitapi said: that would be a solution there are no solutions, only problems..............Problem : years back there were rubbish bins along at least the canal in Chiang Mai. Solution : as long as new they were stolen, later nobody emptied them, even later they were found filthy and stinking in the corners, concrete rubbish bin boxes filled up with stinking food waste. Solution: big signs : no pets allowed anywhere and plastic bags, 1way bubbletea cups, caps and straws and styrofoam boxes with nice smelly food waste in every nook and cranny where motorbikes can drive along, around any type of footsall and karaoke , also right next to hotel and restaurant entries. Solution : no pet in restaurants or hotels, definately not beaches, they might let out a bark, they must be to blame. Especially the well taken care of ones on a leash. EXTERMINATE PEOPLE, LEAVE THE PLANET TO THE ANIMALS . Ever seen a dog who throws away a plastic bag with foul food in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever is being done there to keep those cities clean needs to be applied elsewhere in Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supersomchai Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Perhaps they shouldnt have opened the dongtan seaside road for 24 hours ,most drinkers too lazy to walk. Better still close it to all motor traffic and return it to the walkers,dogwalkers,children,runners, elderly who just crave a little fresh air and a traffic day out. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
