Rimmer Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Mayor insists Pattaya CCTV cameras ‘real’ PATTAYA: -- Despite the broken cables and dark lights spotted on many of the city’s closed-circuit television cameras, Mayor Itthiphol Kunplome insists the city isn’t putting up fake cameras and is actively investing in the security system. Several hundred million baht has been spent since 2006 to install 350 real-time cameras around the Pattaya area to monitor traffic and crime. But Itthiphol admits many of the cameras have fallen into disrepair due to poor maintenance and that cynics couldn’t be faulted for thinking the city was installing “dummy” cameras instead of the real thing.

TheWalkingMan Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Several hundred million baht? Ok, let's say 400 million / 350 cameras = 1.14 million baht per camera? Somebody hit the jackpot with this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
