His chaotic and colorful side is actually probably its\u00a0charm. According to the BMA (Bangkok Metropolitan Administration), new regulations will include a guarantee of a space of at least 1 meter on the sidewalks for pedestrians and makeshift stalls that must be stored every night after the market is closed. An action that is not to everyone&#8217;s taste and should penalize some sellers who earned small\u00a0incomes just\u00a0allowing them to live. Resistance of the vendors\u00a0is not be excluded even if the impact of this &#8220;clean-up&#8221; plan on vendors, companies or the visual landscape of the street is not clear yet.<\/p>\n<p>As for me, trying too hard to &#8220;clean&#8221; and order, is taking the\u00a0risk of losing Khao San Road&#8217;s\u00a0soul &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the series, the junta in Thailand like cleaning, two days ago\u00a0a\u00a0campaign to\u00a0&#8220;clean&#8221; Khao San<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1908","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-thailand-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thailandee.com\/blog\/en\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1908","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thailandee.com\/blog\/en\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thailandee.com\/blog\/en\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thailandee.com\/blog\/en\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thailandee.com\/blog\/en\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1908"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.thailandee.com\/blog\/en\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1908\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1912,"href":"https:\/\/www.thailandee.com\/blog\/en\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1908\/revisions\/1912"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thailandee.com\/blog\/en\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1908"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thailandee.com\/blog\/en\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1908"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thailandee.com\/blog\/en\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1908"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
