City officials and community leaders picked up brooms to give Walking Street a good cleaning.

Deputy Mayor Ronakit Ekasingh and Walking Street community chief Sunthorn Kangsirikul led the Nov. 15 parade of volunteers and bureaucrats for the periodic “big cleaning day.”

Sponsored by Thepthai Inter Co., the cleanup saw the nightlife district swept and washed from South Road to Bali Hai Pier. Drainage pipes were cleared and trash hauled away, while company workers dropped bio-enzymes into drains to remove unpleasant odors.

The effort is one of many performed around the city with city officials and neighborhood leaders joining to keep Pattaya clean and attractive to tourists.
