This construction project is nothing short of an Abomination, and a boil on the face of the nation. The company that is managing this project should be terminated and the chief executives should be jailed or worse.

 

How far behind is this project, a decade or more? And they're still at kilometer 36. How far do they have to go, 15 years, 25 years?

 

Just go ahead and hire a Chinese company, and the project will be finished in two years, suck up the debt and then default, no big deal. Just like every other nation on the Belt and Road initiative. 

 

Isn't this the same company owned by the state park panther eater?

We live off Rama2. In fact construction work similar to the accident site here is going on in front of  our village. When will it happen in our area is what the locals are saying. At least you’ll have your AN reporter on site when it happens.

Really?

Police General Siam Boonsom, Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police Bureau, is scheduled to visit the site later today to assess the situation and oversee the investigation.  I wasn't sure if my memory was deceiving me, so I checked, and it wasn't. In the very next article about foreign prostitutes in Soi Nana, who is leading the investigation? Police General Siam Boonsom! Obviously amn expert in lots of things.

A section of an elevated expressway under construction on Rama II Road collapsed

 

For reference:

 

This construction is part of  Rama III – Dao Khanong – Western Bangkok Outer Ring Road project. The third contract was awarded to ITD-VCB Joint Venture, consisting of Italian-Thai Development Pcl and Vichitbhan Construction Co. Ltd., with other contractors including Asian Engineering Consultants Co. Lt, Chotijinda Consultants Co. Ltd. and MAA Consultants Co. Ltd.

 

 

 

I see Ital-Thai are involved - very good at wild game hunting but not so good at building bridges!!

 

RIP to those who lost their lives, also sincere condolences to their families.

Something strange - I can copy and paste the above reference into my post, but when I click "save", entry to the reference is blocked
