To give u an example of how they do it isaan style

There r no rubbish bins anywhere!!!!

there is a rubbish pile which gets updated every morning between 5 & 6 am and then during the day and early evening it is slowly burned

The chickens & dogs will eat anything in the rubbish that is to their liking which usually means anything

Litter is literally dropped where u sit and if its still remaining 5-6am then mummy and daddy will sweap it up as their 1st job of the day

So u can see why the whole process of reminding thai to keep the environment tidy is a bit alien as the whole process is somewhat different from the western concept of getting everything swept up by the local council

Pretty much what ive described is along the lines of what LIL was saying

I can just see Lord Haw Haw Wellington doing things Thai style, some people just want to move the ways of little england to wherever they go as nothing else is good enough

and of course he is such an integrated part of the community around patong that he wouldnt possibly no that Marc26 has spent more time in Patong in the last 18 months than anywhere else, albeit that we all seme to no
