From Pattaya Newd

The Royal Thai Navy ship HTMS Ravi, a freshwater transport vessel, delivered over 170 tons (around 154,000 liters) of fresh water to the residents of Koh Larn in  Pattaya to alleviate an ongoing drought problem.

The delivery, which took place on June 14th, 2024, came as Koh Larn is facing a water shortage due to dry weather conditions and an increase in tourist arrivals.

Pattaya Mayor Mr. Poramase Ngampiches stated that after receiving complaints from residents and tourists about insufficient water supplies, he reached out to the Royal Thai Navy’s Fleet Command 1 for assistance.

The delivered water is expected to temporarily relieve the initial needs of Koh Larn residents. Meanwhile,  Pattaya officials are in the process of finding long-term solutions to the island’s water shortage.
