Pattaya officials placed a homeless elderly couple living for a year on
the Naklua Canal in a shelter after complaints about their drunken
parties.
Deputy Mayor Wutisak Rermkitkarn led staffers from the Social
Development Department and municipal-enforcement officers to the canal
area June 27 where they found the unnamed couple, in their late 60s,
drunk as reported.
Neighbor Kitsuda Boonruen, 52, said the couple had been squatting on the
canal banks for a year after losing their jobs and home and being
evicted from the Sawangfa Temple, where they had taken refuge. They
reportedly had been harassing tourists at the temple.
The couple’s drunken parties with friends on the canal had long been
disturbing residents, Wutisak said. He instructed the city workers to
take the couple to the Mit Maitree Home in Soi Nongket Noi.
