webfact Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Not the former prime minister Thaksin… we’ll get to him in a moment. But first, the current Thai PM, Srettha Thavisin, is heading to Chiang Mai today on a scheduled visit of the northern city. And, depending on the way you see it, the situation couldn’t be worse, regarding the northern Thailand air pollution. The prime minister arrives on a day, not the first, when Chiang Mai is rated in the respected air pollution monitoring app, iqair.com, as the #1 most polluted city in the world!

Air pollution or military pollution. At least the air pollution improves with time. (Until next year.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post spidermike007 Posted March 15 Popular Post Share Posted March 15 If you goons were not bought and paid for by big agra, the burning would stop. It is your compromised nature and your unwillingness to put up a good fight, that is the major cause of the air apocalypse we are facing. People are dying and suffering in hospitals on your watch, and their blood is on your hands. You are cowards. You are incompetents. You deserve to be voted out with a vengeance. Because this is a man who represents corporate interests. This is the man who represents the elite. This is not a man who represents progress, change, or helping the nation to move forward. This is not a man who represents the people. This not a man who cares about the well-being of the people. Corporations do not want to clean up the air, they're making billions by fouling the air. All the government or provinces would have to do is crack down on sugar companies and the air would improve by 70% overnight, this time of year. One simple move, yet do they do that? Do they enforce any of the existing laws? Absolutely not, they do not care for the people one iota, the common man, us, our neighbors and friends and family, we mean less than zero. Sretta. The do nothing man. 1 1 4 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tazmo Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Govt. talk the talk but don’t walk the walk! Incompetent, fooling their people in the same way the UK was misled during COVID! “Many more will have to suffer, many more will have to die, don’t ask me why?”( Bob Marley). same with alcohol tax reduction, implementation and enforcement is what brings results ( UK proved this with the seat belt law)! Talk is cheap! I am out of CM since February. You have to take action on your own health! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One that is completely bought and paid for by major corporations, hold on a second that sounds like nearly every country in the world. The again China has had a fair amount of success in cleaning up Beijing, so I suppose Thailand could clean up Bangkok if they really wanted to. But they don't seem to care, one iota.

chralis Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 They deserve to die! If they don't understand that the air is not breathable because of the pollution, then they are already dead. The entire region is on fire. I hope the smoke stops their lungs and hearts in bunches. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The vast majority of fires are not agricultural but in forests. This you would know if you actually wrote about things you experience instead of the usual rants from behind your keyboard. If you lived in CM you would also know that, while not denying that the air has been horrible the last 2 days, so far this burning season has seen a much more active national and local government effort and overall it is better than in previous years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are the one who has no idea about what you are talking about. Cambodia, Lao, Bangladesh, Myanmar, East India. .The entire region are on fire. These people are worse than CORONA VIRUS, they are more stupid than street dogs. This is today! Go to the site and click on the fire and see what is burning if you are not a complete imbecile. And almost all forest fires have started because of farm fires. Edited March 16 by chralis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
