Rimmer Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Neglect blamed for broken Najomtien sewage pumps PATTAYA:--Broken pumps caused the sewage spill that blackened a Sattahip District beach, Najomtien officials said. The filter is part of a 124-million-baht project built by the subdistrict to connect its sewer lines to Pattaya’s waste-processing plants. But the system was neglected for a year and broke down and its warranty expires next month. Sattahip District Chief Anucha Intasorn said at a May 19 meeting that the sewage spill had cleared after stinking up a Moo 1 village beachfront for three days. Najomtien Mayor Sompong Sainapa said the sewage came from homes and businesses and backed up in pipes and was pushed out when rain filled the sewers.

Great, neglect it when there is warranty and can get fixed! Somebody didn't 'notice' it was broken and not working or was it not in use. Waste of space bums on seats is the problem!

geoffbezoz Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 This must be fake news surely. The pumps broke down due to no maintenance ? how can that possible be true, Thais maintain everything and anything the minute it is installed. do they not ? ????

spidermike007 Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 As they say in Brooklyn, neglect schmeglect. It does not matter whether or not it is neglect. It is totally on the city. They built it, they have to maintain it, and if it breaks, they take responsibility for it. Neglect is quite common here. Regular maintenance requires vision, discipline, willingness to spend the necessary money, and ability to follow a schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The vision of those responsible for such things, from top to bottom, is shortsighted and in need of an adjustment. Perhaps this an example of the unqualified, leading the unwilling to direct the uneducated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
