apalink_thailand Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 No SCBA for the poor fire fighters (in that pic) but the guy in the black polo gets a set and is trying to make sense on the radio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

30la Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 It seems to me more a warning of the many "fires" that are in Thailand than an inspiration of confidence! For the greatest dangers here (criminals and road hazards) you don't need the fire brigade but the police! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICELANDMAN Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 After seeing all the firemen sitting on the ground with empty tubes, I lost my confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
observer90210 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Ready to save tourists, rather mainly their money of course. One needs to be either blind, ignorantly rich or careless to still shop in Thai upscale malls where the prices are similar (if not more), then the top level malls of France, Spain, Italy etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
