Rimmer Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 1 Million Baht Fire at Bed Production Factory in East Pattaya PATTAYA:--On Tuesday afternoon efforts to clear a field of dead grass by burning the remains led to a massive fire at a Bed Production Facility in East Pattaya. No injuries or deaths were reported but damage was estimated at 1 Million Baht.Nine Fire Engines responded to the incident which took more than 1 hour to bring under control. The fire began in a field next to the TT&G Fibre Company in the Kao Mai Gaew area and due to high winds it quickly spread to the factory which recycles coconut skins to produce the beds.- See more at: http://www.pattayaone.net/pattaya-news/118080/1-million-baht-fire-at-bed-production-factory-in-east-pattaya/#sthash.xgCjEuOw.dpuf -- Pattaya One 2014-02-12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fakename Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Couldnt get the fire under control, because of high winds! But the high winds were no concern to the people burning the grass! Another Darwin award! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basil B Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 I hope they were not selling the mattresses with fire retardant labels attached... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benmart Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Fire + high winds + no burn permit system + poor public safety education = disaster in any country. I'm glad no one was hurt or died. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
