'Vamco wreaked havoc in Pattaya'
A short impression of the “Vamco” Tropical storm, which raged over Pattaya and the surrounding area for almost two days. Due to the heavy rain and wind, many streets were impassable. The damage is great.
In East Pattaya, Khao Talo, Khao Noi, Nernplubwan, etc. were no longer drivable. Small cars were washed away, not to mention mopeds.
This was the worst storm in 5 years.
Storm, they don't know what storm is here. But even on that little wind that there was in Pattaya (and not only there) nothing was calculated, especially not the drainage, the distance from the buildings to the (raised) sea water and so on..
As long as I live here this is an annual phenomenon. Every year the same and every year the same comments and photos without anything being done about it. Ditto in Bangkok. TIT.
