Pattaya Beach Becomes Littered with Debris, Threatening Its World-Class Image
Please tell us how a guy on a barstool is throwing trash in the ocean. Does he collect it in his pockets, walk it out to the beach and give it a toss? Maybe there's a secret farang cult, specifically for lazy farangs, going bar to bar and for a small fee will collect the cigarette butts and trash from said farangs, and dump it at the beach? -

Bangkok Art Biennale returns with 200 contemporary art pieces in 11 venues
The biennial art festival, Bangkok Art Biennale (BAB), returns with 200 pieces of contemporary art at 11 landmarks around the city from October 24 to February 25, 2025. The international contemporary art festival BAB 2024 marks its fourth iteration this year. The Bangkok Art Biennale Foundation organises the festival in collaboration with the Thai Beverage Company, the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA), and the Tourism Authority of Thailand. Since its inception in 2018, the Biennale has successfully linked Bangkok’s cultural heritage with significant modern artistic expressions. It aims to enhance the city’s creative economy while providing a platform for Thai and international artists to showcase their work. The event will showcase over 200 contemporary art pieces by 76 artists from 39 countries across 11 venues in Bangkok including: Wat Phra Chetuphon Wimon Mangkhalaram (Wat Pho) Wat Arun Ratchawararam Wat Prayurawongsawas Warawihan Wat Bowon Niwet Bangkok National Museum Chao Fa Art Gallery Bangkok Art and Culture Centre Museum Siam One Bangkok Queen Sirikit National Convention Centre Central World The mixed-use building One Bangkok is the new venue for this year, featuring cutting-edge technology, art, culture, and sustainability. The project has just launched its grand opening on October 25, introducing itself as the global integrated lifestyle hub. Aside from the innovative venue, the event also showcases contemporary arts in historic settings such as Wat Bowon Niwet and other attractions along the Chao Phraya River. This year’s theme, “Nurture Gaia (รักษากายา),” focuses on diverse interpretations of nature, nurturing, femininity, and reflections on ecology and power dynamics. In the Thai language, รักษา means nurture, while กายา (gaia) means body. During the opening week, there will be special performances by renowned artists, including Kira O’Reilly from Finland and Ireland, showcasing works that explore women’s experiences. BAB promises to be a vibrant celebration of contemporary art, offering visitors unique insights into global issues through diverse artistic media. More information about the festival, along with the schedules for each activity in the event, can be found on the official Facebook page and Instagram of BAB 2024. by Petch Petpailin Photo via Facebook/ BkkArtBiennale Source: The Thaiger -- 2024-10-28 -
