Villagers in the north east of Thailand are furious that their local authority has wasted money by building a basketball court in the middle of a paddy field.

Was Kevin Kostner at the opening ceremony?

would be spending 400,000 baht on a football pitch

 Covered in buffalo and bird pooh - charming, I'm sure, especially after rain for the goalkeeper:-

The court is unused with gaping holes in the surface, buffalo and bird pooh everywhere, some old stone tables and a couple of netball posts discarded on the side. 

 

There is evidence of subsidence.

This will be cancelled and the 400,000 baht will be spent repairing the basketball court.

Yep!  And after meticulous planning, one toothless old man will be sent there with a can of tar and a brush to fill-in the cracks.  400,000 baht well spent!
