The Phuket News

 

 

PHUKET: Environment officials across the island have been ordered to clean up their areas across Phuket, especially garbage dumped along streets, and to report their actions directly to Phuket Vice Governor Teera Anantaseriwidhya.

 

Vice Governor Teera handed down the order at a meeting of the Provincial Trash and Wastewater Committee held at the Phuket City Municipality Environment Office on Thursday (Jan 26).

 

Present to receive the order in person were Kasem Sukwaree, Director Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment Phuket office, and Dr Pornsri Suthanaruk, Director of Environmental Office Region 15.

 

At the meeting Phuket V/Gov Teera demanded action be taken to clean up the streets and dump sites across Phuket.

 

He also ordered for updates on garbage collection practices by local municipalities across the island and for an update on the current capability of the municipal garbage incinerator at Saphan Hin – the only large-scale incinerator in Phuket.

"...Phuket officials ordered to clean up their act..."

 

Whilst the (so-called) officials in the firing line of Teera's "order" seem to be dismally failing to do their appointed tasks, it is claimed that some of his other compatriots have really excelled in their efforts to "clean up" at Phuket. Unfortunately, through their exploitation of foreign employees and migrant workers (https://is.gd/G0yfXf) !!!

 

The "Vice" Governor's demands are even more farcical considering it appears the alleged corruption persists despite the matter having been brought to the attention of high-level provincial officials.

 

Is it any wonder that Transparency International suggest Thailand is ranked 101st out of 175 countries on their Corruption Index ???
