No Sign Of Deckchairs Being Removed

[whatsoever]

Wasnt it the govener of Chonburi who has laid his reputation and position on the line - stating that he would resign and move away from the area if the lawless beach bandits didnt agree to new terms of encroachment and give back some of the beach to the publicby the end of June. I am still waiting for the taxi touts to be removed from the airport! And to think the powers that be are banding together to discuss action re. global warming!

Maybe he was just moving house and now he has enough space to have a deckchair from every vendor along the beach around the new bigger swimingpool?

Well payments to said pocket usually removes any incentive to do anything.

He's far too busy taking care of more urgent matters like signing orders to shut down bars on the Dark side that stay open 15 minutes past midnight.

Well as it's not the end of June yet, you are unlikely to see any movement. These guys will extract the maximum timescale they can, if that means removing their deckchairs at 11.59 pm on the 30th, that's what they will do.

UPDATE

Deckchair operators meet at Pattaya City Hall.

On Monday Morning at Pattaya City Hall, Khun Ronagit, Deputy Mayor of Pattaya chaired a meeting regarding the issue of Deckchair Operators situated on Pattaya, Jomtien and beaches located around Larn Island. Khun Prachar, the Governor of Chonburi Province, originally told the operators that 50% of their existing plots would be given over as public areas. Over 300 deckchair operators attended the meeting and showed their opposition to this plan. The Deputy Mayor informed those who attended that the Mayor had already spoken with the Provincial Governor who agreed to allow Pattaya City Hall to manage the deckchair plots and the plan to use 50% of the land for the public had been shelved. The only condition would be that an election for the plots would still take place and operators could only own one plot. Also 50% of the income from plots must be given to Pattaya City Hall. The plan was accepted by delegates.

So now more deck chairs must be placed to make up for the payment to City Hall of half the profits. (I'm sure all that untraceable cash will be honestly deposited)

So how does one measure the income? Election for the plots - <deleted> does that mean? So the operaters have to name their brother/sister/mother/aunt as owner of any plot over the one! The governer stays - The deckchairs stay- and the beach remains a mess!

PS i took a stroll along be the beach thismorning and it was so nice to be approached by so many disgusting low life hookers, and time share touts. Funny how there was quite a few right opposote the police station - must be the safest place. I must recommend the beach to my quality tourist friends and family groups. Amaizing Thailand!
