gl555 Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 It's not THAT luxurious. Though the outdoor fountain/studio is a little over the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gsxrnz Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Could be worse - they could have built a golf course instead of the hydroponics farm. Hmmm.....where I come from they grow things other than vegetables with hydroponics! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xen Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 It is a plus that they have included the handicap ramps - maybe they will be included in other new public buildings and facilities.But are the toilets etc handicap friendly ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Pops Posted July 18, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted July 18, 2013 That is what any police station and any other government building should look like. That is actually what government buildings look like in Europe. Always complaints when police stations are dirty, not wheelchair friendly etc. And now they do it right and we make it sound like it is too luxurious. Clean, wheelchair friendly, nice toilets, some decorations and extra features, well done boys !! Way to go !! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emdog Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Here in Pattaya, specifically Banglamung, on Sukumvit road is a "Police Resort", or so the sign says. <deleted>? I guess they need it for trysts with mia nois and other questionable practices. "Your bribe dollars at work". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newermonkey Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 All sounds very nice, but... I wonder who has been paying for all this then? Perhaps they have financial links to a wealthy monk? " coming soon perhaps" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

" coming soon perhaps" Different province so maybe a different monk? S'funny, I just drove past his Wat and all the big posters of him have been taken down.

Traveling Sailor Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 So what? They still cannot/will not arrest law-breakers, stop drunk driving, catch criminals, etc. They just have a better place to hang out and collect tea money. Amazing Thailand tax dollars at work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
