Why I do not like Thai markets
1. They create traffic jams when they arrive, when they leave and when open.
2. They leave the place in a mess.
3. They sell products that can be found in any shop to a cheaper price.
4. The food is old and not good for anybody.
5. They do not pay tax to the government.
6. They clog the water drains full with junk.
I am all for markets maybe once a month or weekly in the country side but why on earth do they have a market every second day in the middle of the town. They shops have pay tax, electric, water, garbage and aircon. They are also blocked every second day by this street vendors.
Some people might say it is part of the Thai charm with some street vendors and street food. Sure I agree but we have market and we have markets and the one that live near by tend to clean up after themselves. The people who come with cars just leave the trash behind.
