toenail Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 This haze or smog pops up 1-2 times during the winter season-no big deal. It will soon go away. Nothing to panic about. I’d worry more about daily the bumper to bumper bus fumes contaminating the air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCC1701A Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 What moral conditions will be characteristic of society in the last days of Pattaya? There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God—having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnsmith8888 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Pattaya is not a place I want to live but regardless all of thailand has 2.5 more than it doesn't for at least 4 months a year. I will renew my ext this year but I am checking out vietnam and probably will be there at least 6 months each year from this point on. Women are harder to socialize with there but I need to prioritize health and I literally ONLY hear good things about the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sydebolle Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Must be the clouds of weed smoke presently enjoyed at the City hall over all those new projects of Monorail, possible sub-marine stop, hi-speed railway hub, the Indian's endeavours to copy/paste Nana Entertainment Complex in The Avenue, the various coloured bus lines and the sheer happiness over the tremendous traffic jam along Beach Road, Second Road, Central Road and all this in midst of the "High Season". The only things high, it seems, is the metered reading of pollution for which they will be blaming the smoking aliens along Jomtien and for the reason have to punish them with a THB 100K ticket. Stupidity at its very finest, well done - keep up the good work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isaan sailor Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 If you don’t already have one, buy yourself a palm sized PM 2.5 air monitor.

spidermike007 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 It never happened before? Last year was the worst in many years for air quality. Are we seeing a trend here? Diesel power plants, crop burning, industry, massive traffic, and one of the few nations in the world actively promoting the sale of new diesel vehicles. Is this hapless administration doing anything proactive to battle the horrendous air quality here? Anything at all? Do they care? Their apathy and gross incompetence is a stunning thing to witness.

As much as you hate Thailand and everything about it, there's not much they can do about the wind. Most of this stuff comes in from Indonesia.
