Naklua community seeks funds for beach repairs

PATTAYA:-- One of the Pattaya area’s oldest beach communities is seeking nearly 15 million baht to repair a shoreline footpath.

 

Todsaporn Siriwattana­pairoj, chairman of the Laem Rajchawej Community – which is home to the Sanctuary of Truth in Naklua – said the beachfront near the Laem Rajchawej British Alumni Center long ago collapsed and has not been repaired.

 

The marine center, popular among Asian and Europe tourists, sits in the middle of an old fishing neighborhood that also includes a 100-year-old bungalow and a 500-meter walkway along the beach. All are in need of repair and sprucing up, he said.

par for the course. beaches are ugly in Thailand.

someone must have picked up the trash before taking this picture.

 

Run some pics on social media that usually gets results. So much tourist money coming in and they must go "seeking" money incredible. 

The Naklua walkways have been repaired many times in previous years .Some recent extensive work  lasted only a few months .Unless there is a reputable  contractor not related to officials at city hall and prepared to guarantee the work  it is pointless spending more cash on a makeshift job with substandard  workmen and materials.

When you build that close to the water, the water will win every time.  That should be sand and not a foot path.  The foot path should be on the other side of the railing that is on the left in the picture.
