Sattahip Naval Officer Survives LPG Vehicle Fire
A 33 year old Royal Thai Navy officer Khun Wirachon is a lucky chappy after he escaped unsinged when his car burst into flames. The fire brigade and rescue units were despatched after receiving reports of a vehicle on fire in a car park of an accommodation unit used by naval personnel in Sattahip.
Fire brigade officers directed their hoses on the burning vehicle. The fire was concentrated in the engine compartment of the Honda Civic however they were eager to reach the trunk of the car to turn off the LPG gas cylinder and cut off the gas that was fueling the engine bay fire. It took only 10 minutes to douse the flames and avert the risk of a gas explosion.
Khun Wirachon said later that he had got in the car to go shopping and when he turned on the ignition key he heard an electric click and thinks that a spark ignited LPG gas that may have collected under the bonnet. He had the LPG equipment fitted about three years ago and thinks that being old it may have sprung a leak.
So the lucky Khun Wirachon survived the incident but sadly his Honda Civic did not fare so well. If anyone has a cheap Honda Civic vehicle for sale preferably without LPG Khun Wirachon can be contacted at Sattahip Naval Base.

Meeting Proposed Gas Pipeline in Nongplalai District Pattaya
A public meeting was held at Nongplalai district offices in East Pattaya to discuss proposals to build a gas pipeline in the area.
Present at the meeting were the companies who are planning to build the pipeline Siam Best CNG and Royal Golden Dragon. The pipeline is planned to supply local CNG gas stations with gas products which will be used in the future by transport companies to fuel trucks, buses and passenger vehicles.
Environmental impact assessment studies have been carried out and local residents had this opportunity to ask questions about the plans that will affect their area as the pipeline will require some disturbance to local communities as the ground is excavated and the gas pipes laid.
Some local residents are protesting the proposed pipelines as they see little benefit to the local community and are worried not so much about temporary disruption but the long term risk of a highly flammable gas flowing underneath their homes that could lead to the risk of fire or explosions.
The companies involved agreed to hold more meetings with the local residents to attempt to allay their fears.

It didn't take them long to bring in a haul of 7 people 4 males and 3 females who subsequently tested positive for drugs consumption. After interrogating these suspects they received information about a drug dealer thought to be operating in South Pattaya and supplying Thai teenagers.
Police set up a sting operation and trapped the drug dealer into selling undercover agents drugs in turn for marked notes. As soon as the deals went down lurking boys in brown rushed in to make the arrests.
Khun Somsak aged 21, sold 2 packets of the class 1 drug Yaa Ice (Crystal Methamphetamine) weighing 2.48g. Khun Somsak was charged with possession and supply of a class 1 narcotic and he is in the cooler for selling the Yaa Icy where he will no doubt face the icy stare of a local judge.
Now the police have further information about his supplier in Bangkok and no doubt Bangkok drug suppression agents will be informed.
