Piles of garbage cleared from house in Pathum Thani
Authorities in Pathum Thani's Klong Luang district on Monday inspected a home in a Tambon Klong 4's housing estate where an elderly Thai couple had piled up garbage that had spilled from the front of the house onto the road.
Officials led by Klong Luang clerk Pitchaya Piarat presented a state-issued letter to the couple to clear all the garbage they had compiled for proper disposal.
Neighbours told officials that the couple had kept garbage inside and outside the home for years and would scold anyone who told them to clean it up.
Neighbours, who had complained of public disturbance, traffic blockage and a fire hazard affecting the whole community, said they were relieved that officials cleared the garbage away.
