FiveStarVagabond Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Will it work? In my opinion they will need to replicate this in at least 3 or 4 other locations on Beach Rd. The water rushes down the hill from 2nd road and floods beach Rd in several places.

wump Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 (edited) Put some 60-80cm wide drain pipes from beach road 10 metres to the beach. How hard can it be? Putting new sand and continuously digging up the sand is surely costing many times more that. But then again, who owns the sand/digging company?

recycler Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Any proper solution will put them out of work and kickbacks.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmccarty Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 There has been many billions of baht spent on trying to fix that beach. Wonder if they have ever had a real civil hydrologist solution and implemented it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaZa9 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 I'd also hazard a guess this incompetence is really just corruption , and this is where it is so destructive to Thai communities because it not only bleeds them of money , it causes untold disruption and traffic danger while the work continually gets done and undone - in order to be rorted. There is a road in the middle of Patong that many expats used to call "Middle Broken Road" , that the previous Mayor had under construction for many , many years. Just when it looked complete , it would have holes cut in it , or whole new pieces dug up again. He died unexpectedly and the new Mayor had the road complete within a couple of months. I heard then that the previous Mayor had got 15% of any work done on that road , and thus he had no interest in seeing it finished... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiveStarVagabond Posted November 4, 2015 Author Share Posted November 4, 2015 They certainly need another drain at Soi 2 & Klang. Apart from all that the skill of the workers is amazing as the photo clearly shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
