In Pattaya, residents and rental operators have raised concerns over the construction of a luxury condominium, soaring over 60 stories high, in the Taphra Ya 9-15 area.

 

For over two years, dust and noise from the building site have disrupted the lives of those living nearby, yet no assistance has been forthcoming from local authorities.

 

Chalida, a 52-year-old business operator in Taphra Ya 9, expressed frustration, stating that the construction has led to relentless dust and noise issues. She noted that many residents are gradually moving out due to the unbearable sound levels, which sometimes extend to midnight.

Chalida shared video footage with reporters, highlighting the severe impact of the dust and noise from the construction site, along with her attempts to file complaints with various authorities, including the Pattaya City Council, all to no avail. 

 

The situation is particularly dire for those residing on the seventh floor, which has been vacated entirely due to the noise and dust from cement pouring on the surrounding streets.

 

Reporters observed thick layers of dust on windows and floors, alongside cracks in the buildings nearby, indicating the extent of the problem.

Furthermore, staff members and housekeepers have reported respiratory issues due to the pervasive dust, necessitating the use of face masks at all times. Despite their struggles, no agency has stepped in to address these health concerns.

 

Recently, MP Yodchai Phungporn from Chonburi visited the site to listen to the grievances of both business owners and residents.

 

He plans to present their complaints regarding the dust and noise to the House of Representatives’ Land and Environment Committee for further action, reported Siam Rath.

I’d contact the EIA and demand financial restitution from the builder and developer. They approved it and should make sure that the builder stays within guidelines permitted, or pay for the damages.

Hard to achieve here... they paid someone off to ignore complaints already!

    Nobody is demanding that construction be halted, as far as I know.  What they want is for the builder to be a responsible neighbor.  We had a new highrise building go up next door to our Bangkok condo.  The builder shielded the construction as much as possible and I believe cleaned the balconies of the condos on the construction side of the building once a month while construction was going on.  And, washed the windows.  I think they also paid for the pool to be cleaned daily, even though the condo was already maintaining the pool, and some other things.   Perhaps Bangkok has stricter construction rules regarding neighboring properties.
