McConnell called Trump "ill-tempered" "stupid" and a “despicable human being”

Residents of a condominium in Chatuchak district, Bangkok, raised concerns about a growing number of homeless individuals who have taken up residence in front of their building, indulging in alcohol and glue sniffing, and leaving food waste scattered. Despite repeated reports to local government officials, the issue remains unresolved.

 

A post on the Facebook page Drama-addict highlighted the problem, with a resident seeking assistance. The resident asked, “Can I report the homeless people around my condo? The Ideo Phaholyothin Chatuchak condo has a significant number of homeless people, nearly 10. They consume alcohol, sniff glue, and leave food waste everywhere. It is extremely dirty.”

 

The condominium’s management has reported the situation to local government officials multiple times, but the homeless individuals continue to return to the same spot. The resident expressed fear that this group might pose a threat, especially considering the high number of women and children living in the condo.

“I am afraid that this group might cause some frightening incidents because there are many people, including women and children, living in this condo.”

 

The situation has escalated to a point where residents are increasingly worried about their safety and the cleanliness of their living environment. The presence of nearly 10 homeless individuals engaging in such behaviour has created a sense of unease among the condo inhabitants, reported KhaoSod.

 

“We have reported this issue several times, yet nothing has changed. We are genuinely concerned for our safety and the cleanliness of our home.”

One thing I have always like in Thailand that they leave the poor and the mentally disturbed in peace. 

There is no social safety net, but at least it's not a punishable offense to sleep on the sidewalk,  like it is in many rich countries.

The bottom rung and no-where to go.

How about just removing all the junk?  Doesn't look like anyone is watching it.

All the "compassionate"  posters above.. please let them know you have money for their glue and they can camp in front of your condo or in your back yard 👍

 

Glue huffers are zombies

[jippytum]

If  condo common area is being  used the management should instruct security to clear the area. 

 Reidents should not have run a gaunlet of glue sniffers to enter the condo.

Yes, quite.

In Thailand, those homeless often make their living collecting plastics, empty tins, and bottles(by selling them to the recyclers).

And they very rarely harm others.

And unlike in the first world, violence against such vulnerable people is not so common.

While quite a number of homeless bullying  is reported  in the west.

Some assh*les even post their scene of crimes on internet.

It's those damn drugs again.

You obviously have not grown up with some Thai kids. Tossing fire crackers and water balloons is not unusual. Some merchants use very strong chemical washes on their front entrances to clear the vagrants. A leaking, noisy air conditioner unit is very effective too.

 

How would you know if the gas and glue huffers don't harm others? Their brains are fried and they typically lose  reasoning ability after a year of it. The yaba fiends are worse. They attack and then run off.

 

And yes, bullying is as frequent in Thailand as anywhere else. Because you don't see it, doesn't mean that it does not occur.  My friend's neighborhood had a problem of vagrants going through the garbage making a mess of things. They were dealt with by some gentlemen who gave them a proper spanking such that they did not return.

 

And don't knock Bumfights. It was popular all over the world.  There wasn't a high school or college kid in the early 2000's who had not searched for the online videos. They were right up there with Milf Adventures, Midget Sex and best sport match fights.

I have often seen bullying and physical aggression between Thais, and sometimes between Thais and foreigners. 

I have never seen it directed at homeless people. That doesn't mean it doesn't occur, but it's not the typical Thai way to deal with them.

I wouldn't call it bullying, but more of a directed management response.  You won't see these unhoused or  troubled people in affluent areas for long because there are people who are paid to "take care" of the situation. It is similar in Hong Kong, South Korea, and Japan.  It is done discreetly.

Is the scavenging banned in your home country？

Do they have a well-developed recycle system implemented at social/national scale?

 

Buddhist Thais usually strongly believe in the idea of   better rebirth depending on the merit(from the good deed) they earn  during their current life.

Abusing the destitute helpless  will certainly be deemed the opposite(inviting bad fortunes).

It's a criminal offence to take food that's near or just over the expiry date and thrown away by the supermarket (many tons every day) out of the garbage container. They call it theft.

 

Scavenging is also forbidden at railway  stations, gas stations, airports, subways, wherever. 

In theory, it is legal at a public trash can in the street. In practice,  public trash cans have been abolished.

Yes.

Trash is metuculosly separated, the trash police will fine people who throw things into the wrong container. It's all collected,  nationwide,  put onto big ships and shipped to South East Asia  (before 2018, China) to be burnt in the open, eg in Laem Chabang.
