Hi ,
So the sign board for walking street is history and in its place is a snazzy new sign complete with advert ( Pattaya beer garden ) , is it just me or what , but would`nt it have been cheaper to just buy three bulbs  .
Regards Yogi
p.s The question is , for a country where nothing is free .... how much did the huge advert cost ??? .

I read something in a German newspaper ( Pattaya Blatt ) when I was overthere in April... something about a huge video screen they want to build at the entrance of Walking Street with the end of this year.
Don´t know if it was just a rumor or a true story.
Will see if I can find the article in the archive of the online edition.

Yup,- that´s it !
Read it again in the online archive of "Pattaya Blatt".
By the way, this paper is just a German edition of the English "Pattaya Mail".
"Wa king Street" in November 2007:

Yes, they have put a huge gantry and screen up - doesn't work of course - but I guess they will get it to work for a few days .... maybe even weeks?
It's a typical piece of foolishness by ex-Mayor Niran.
Still you will be able to watch TV whilst waiting for the pick-up to take you to hospital after the accident you had because your Moto'cycle driver was watching TV!
It's also very ugly!

Have to report that the screen is now working.
Very ugly and inappropriate!
