Mr Sukhumbhand said this after jointly chaired an activity to open the “Big Cleaning Day” event at Lat Phrao intersection on Phahon Yothin road with Army Region 1 commander Lt Gen Udomdej Sitabutr.
The event was held after the floodwater at the main intersection in inner Bangkok had receded.
“Lat Phrao intersection was inundated for several days and after the water receded, a large number of sludge and debris were left behind. The cleaning up day is organized to give back cleanness to Phahon Yothin road”, said Bangkok governor.
The cleaning up activity will be held in other areas after the floodwater has receded to make Bangkok clean before the coming New Year festival, he added.
