Are you serious? Between the lucky lucky men and the time share touts its far more hassle. The beaches are few and far between too.

CaptainCarrot Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 He should get it all completed just in time for the monorail contractors to come along and destroy most of it during their building work. Toilets in the stations would be joined-up thinking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bodga Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 FAIL 100% how about stopping the jetski scam with the police involvement, its just the usual THAI BULL. What needs to change is the THAI ATTITUDE. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bkk6060 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 I guess some of you are chin up, hiso from Monaco? I think the BR walkway is nice I walk it almost everyday. Very wide and clean when I walk. Plenty of trees and shade and benches to sit if cannot find them, sounds pretty lame. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P100 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Projects like road constructions will never ever finish. Every year they start all over again. Same road. It is how they steal the yearly construction budget. 90% of yhat budget gets redistributed between the dirty guys. 10% goes into construction works that never end. They are not supposed to ever end coz it is a permanent income source.... Amazing Thailand 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The beaches are few and far between too. We were there 2 years ago. Beach front Hotel next to Veronica's. Dark sand beach which was decent enough and never approached by anyone not even any of the drab tourists. Obviously other places may be worse for that sort of thing. We were booked for Gran Canaria last month but got covided off so did Portugal instead. The worst thing I find is the sea (north Atlantic) is far too cold after Thai holidays. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post bradenroger Posted September 11, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 11, 2020 Can we please start by placing garbage bins on the beach side near the umbrellas so one doesn't have to risk life and limb to dispose of a plastic bottle on the other side of the street. Thank you, sir. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waders123 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Consider a overhead tram along Beach Road in Pattaya. Pedestrians area only below the tram. Convert the existing Beach Road into a long grassed park that is well lighted and open. Folks can picnic and walk the Beach Road strip as well as take the overhead tram. It could benefit the locals, (business and public alike), the tourists would love it. With a little imagination the area could be a visually pleasing and desirable destination to enjoy your day.
