Over 10 million baht of damage was caused by a burning disposal facility in Pathum Thani territory on Saturday night. No deaths were reported.

After being alerted, more than 10 fire vehicles from Tambon Khu Bang Luang Municipality, along with evacuation staff and volunteers, were dispatched to Pathum Recycle Co Ltd in Lat Lum Kaeo area.

According to reports, flames broke out over about 5 rai ( 1.9 acres ) of the 30- rai ( 11.8- acre ) grounds, mostly engulfing wooden pallets and plastic boards as well as a macro truck.

It took more than two days for the fire to be contained, and injuries are thought to be in excess of 10 million baht.

No claims have been taken already as only Burmese workers, who are unable to communicate Thai, stay on the grounds.

The factory’s owner has been contacted, and there has been contact with the witnesses.
