There are groups of three shinny metal small posts about every 100-200 feet along the newly improved beach walkway. They are about 2 feet high and look like stainless steel. Anyone know why they are there ? They don't seem to have any lights. Thanks

Probably for no good reason, like many of the posts here.

Another good idea that I didn't think of.

Soi Dog conveniences.

They are zen-esqe expressions of Thai wisdom designed to confuse falang and provoke intrigue and mystique into the superior and profoundly wise Thai approach of urban planning.

So far, no one really knows.

Please keep us posted.

I think its for pole Dancing training. For the katoy Olympics..

My guess is that the lamp pole vendor hasn't been paid for their previous projects so they're not delivering the actual lamp poles to go on the pedestals until they get paid.

And, a few years after the poles are installed, the lamp vendor will get paid and they'll put lamps on top the poles.

But that's just a guess.

Hopefully the are the legs for the missing

bench seats

A nearby soi has something similar to those. Their purpose is to make people trip on them and then impale the tripper.

That's the best guess I have heard so far.

So far, no one seems to know although there have been some funny answers.

They are escape interfaces like in matix films

Another obstruction for peeps to trip over / bang into / crack shins on.

The mind boggles what goes on in the heads of the street-planners.

Im hoping they are for people that race motorbikes up and down the footpath to crash into when they least expect it

Well, I think they were put up to make those pedestrian traffic light crossings nobody cares about - not too lonely

probably they have NO purpose. they were put there by a contractor, someone "behind the curtain" made a quick buck and fled the scene ;-)

and before u say this can only happen in thailand, there's plenty of ghost bridges in the rest of the world.

there are also the same posts located at various points at the edge of the paved area to prevent cars from mounting the walkway. they are generally located where there are ramps which were put there so cars could enter the walkway.

so first they built the ramps then they blocked them off - work that one out.

the posts that run vertically along the walkway must also be some form of traffic calming. but in the real world they make no sense

ee kwai!

Not horses, everyone knows the girls all have treasured pet water buffaloes, now that farang are getting so skeptical (thanks to TV) they need to have them close to hand as proof.

Business opportunity here - sick buffalo rental agencies. . .

Their true purpose is to turn "sex tourists" into "medical tourists"

So far, no one really knows. I do, but not telling.
