Almera Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 RT @191Thailand: Soi Charoensuk is a dead end road. Many narrow alleys in that area. Fire trucks cannot get close to the fire. Well that's handy. Let's hope everyone was able to get away in time, and perhaps all future buildings will be built where there is access by fire engines. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anon467367354 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 I don't know if it's just me, but I'm seeing a lot of burned down places all over Bangkok lately. Most of these places are shacks and people that sell something on the street and live right behind their "businesses". There is no easier way to have people have to relocate than by destroying their homes. I know it sounds cynical, but I travel Rama III quite a bit and number of fires lately I've been seeing lately is concerning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mampara Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 If the fire fighters can not get near, perhaps they should do what they do when fighting forest fires and try and extinguish the fire from the air? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadKiter Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Do they have fire fighting equipped helicopters in Thailand? Seems like that would be the ticket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mampara Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 They should take steps in removing all the cooking gas cylinders from the aria if the fire spreads out of control these would explode and cause more fires. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
