Popular Post webfact Posted May 3 Popular Post Share Posted May 3 Picture courtesy of Siam Rath The city authorities of Pattaya, under the direction of Deputy Mayor Mr. Wuthisak Rermkitchakit, dismantled a motorbike taxi stand that was reportedly encroaching upon a public footpath on Second Road. The stand was alleged to have unauthorized makeshift sunshades, constructed from old umbrellas and advertising boards, obstructing the pedestrian path near the Tops Intersection. This action was taken on Wednesday, May 1st. The unattractive sunshades created a displeasing visual. Officials, therefore, removed these makeshift constructions to restore the public footpath to its original state. The move is a bid to enhance the aesthetics of the area and make the footpath more accessible to pedestrians. Additionally, an agreement was reached with the motorbike taxi drivers who were operating from this stand. They were instructed not to invade public spaces further, and any future encroachment may lead to legal consequences. -- 2024-05-04 Get our Daily Newsletter - Click HERE to subscribe 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gottfrid Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 Great that they squeeze the little Win terrorists for once. Hope they find more 5h1t they put up everywhere and make an example of them. Time to teach them, they not own the cities they are active in. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stargeezr Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 I hope they talked with the MFIA boss of these taxi drivers as well. What do you think? Yes I left a letter out of one word. We all know why the taxi (cars) companies have so much power, it is their top bosses. Phuket taxi companies have top bosses as well. My Opinion as to why these illegal structures take so long to get dismantled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biggles45 Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 There is a police box on the cnr of 2nd road and Klang, you can see it in the photo above. So not hard to check if they rebuild the obstructions. Not that any cop ever leaves the comfort of the box!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thesetat Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 On 5/4/2024 at 1:53 PM, hotchilli said: Encroaching.... ? Yes. At that particular place there is a police stand where they constantly do police checkpoints having the drivers pull over in the extra lane. Having a taxi stand there would be an easy place to video record any shenanigans during checkpoint stops without their knowledge. Too near to them for their comfort would be encroaching I presume.

You are suggesting that bribery is a complete myth in Thailand and this is something that doesn't exist because you can't find a link ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
