trainman34014 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 And this of course is much more important than ''Calling on the Authorities to act '' to prevent the burning which leads to choking smog, or getting the idle Police to do their job enforcing road laws, or stopping people dumping all their garbage in Klongs or by the sides of country roads etc etc, all far more important than two twits sitting on a wall drinking beer !

sawadee1947 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Disgusting! It's a shame really. They should have honored the history with a decent drink.. Champagne at least! No education. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you would OK with 2 Foreigners having a beer sitting on the Vietnam wall? Or the 911 memorial? It is about respecting what it represents which is hugely lacking in the world today.

If it's about what they (really) represent, hopefully they would urinate on them too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeVonderBearz Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 This again. Nothing special about this thing. Theres been workers working on the wall the past few months and making it look a complete monstrosity. Odd coloured bricks and building right over the pavement. Anyway, the people should know better I have to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balo Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 That the wall was rebuilt in 1985 is being repeated over and over again . It's not the issue here. It's a holy wall for the locals, the ancient history around the moat in CM speaks for itself. The history goes back to the 14th century. So all foreigners should respect that, but I agree there should be a big warning sign around the wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmsally Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 I don't know that anywhere in the history of the walls , there is any mention of them being holy. They were built and rebuilt many times, in the past because of defense and more recently as renovation of an old monument/feature. Although an old feature of the city , the Kampaegdin wall would be more authentic, and I don't think getting on top of that would upset anyone.

CGW Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 The only reason - bearing in mind how money orientated the Thai's are, the wall was rebuilt was to increase tourism - its working - Rejoice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odysseus123 Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 I have fond merories of stting on the medieval walls of San Gimignano..eating crusty bread and sipping on an icy Vernaccia.. Of course the Italians built the walls to last wheras you are lucky if they stay up for twenty years in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
