I guess he's fixing another road right now before more people get hurt. After that he'll build some dams to protect his village against floods. When that's finished he'll dig some lakes so his family has water during the next drought. All Thai men will hate him.

Mickmouse1 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Oh my..mai mai..my Thai friend said they will try to take legal action againstPapa Peter for Embarrassing the Local Thai and for defamation insinuating that locals and local authorities are lazy, corrupt and negligent.

BuckBee Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Kind of respect him for doing rather than usual sitting on his farang arse with usual drink & talk . Local Amper indeed may be unhappy with him :-) Annoying thing is why thai's can't do simple stuff like this themselves. be easy for them submit petitions, record vehicle damage etc then after year or so follow up with community team doing it & send it viral to shame the scum in charge . laziness & corruption are huge here & just because uncle buck tells us it all getting better doesn't mean it is lol ...

Another old guy unable to accept the way things are done here and the ignorance to try to do it himself. This is a slap in the face for the local council and from a farang. What on earth is his Thai wife doing, letting do such a thing? I am rapidly coming round to the view that you are actually a parody of one of those farangs who are more Thai than the Thais. Do keep it up. Its really rather funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stoneyboy Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 He needs to get out more,spending his hard earned money and time on trying to fix up a country who's government couldn't give a toss. If he's that concerned he should be pushing his Thai wife to speak to the usual village tossers siphoning the coffers to repair it. It makes people do strange things does Thailand,poor chap.

I blame his wife for letting the poor guy make a fool of himself. Then again, she is probably half his age and wants to keep him naive for obvious reasons.

On his knees in the road paying to take it up the exhaust by various lazy, cosseted buffoons. It still just boils down to him paying to pump and grind while they prance the money away.

whatproblem Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 In my village the guy responsible for the road used the money to build somewhere for the people to sit and talk and do activities ,he then put his vehicles in it so the people would have to ask him if they could use it ,they didn't want to ask him so he ask his own place for his vehicles in the shade for free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graemej100 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 How embarrassing for Thailand and the City Hall concerned that a visitor to the country has to repair the roads. Hope he's got a work permit because I think road repairing is a job reserved for Thais only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lostinisaan Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 He is doing something positive to help his local community - and the locals love him for it. And he is reaching into his pockets too With all respect, this is going a little bit too far. All provinces have their local office for rural roads and quite a few complaints would have done the trick as well. Sorry, but it seems that the guy doesn't know what else to do. I hope that they arrest him for working without a work permit and depart him to Buri Ram, somewhere out in the sticks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

williamgeorgeallen Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 putting a patch of cement into a bitumen road is a very short term fix at best. have to say the roads do seem to have degraded over the last year or 2. has road maintenance funding been cut? there is a small lake forming on the road outside my girls esan house. was thinking about paying 500thb to have a load of crushed rock put in it. passing cars splashed mud and water all over the fence which i have just painted.
