PATTAYA, Thailand – Pattaya City’s efforts to reclaim public land on Phothisarn Soi 6 are making significant headway, marking a decisive move after years of encroachment by 20 households using the area for residential purposes. The longstanding issue prompted Mayor Poramet Ngampichet to lead officials in overseeing the removal of these structures, which had previously faced prolonged dismantlement processes.
