Guys/gals...

The development escapes me but there a a large mall construction prpject on RF blvd 110 (west of the cam rail station)... Believe its called megamall if my memory is correct.

Are they planning to expand that road? Traffic really suckson that road now...

There's a ministry for that
Don't go by car, as they didn't plan enough parking space

It was well under construction on 3 / 09 / 2015 when I took these photoes.

It ran into financial issues so things have been crawling for a while now.

seems weird to me they keep building malls in PP when half the population cant afford anything in them
i'd like to see them start building Tescos or Big c's through out the country

Does PP really need all these malls? (NO) will they make $$, ( NO) or are they just away to wash $$ (YES)

Does Bangkok need the plethora of malls? No, but they are still building more....

yes and if u go u will see there are people in them all the time...

Bangkok is far more developed than pp with a far larger middle class, expats and tourists

I have been to all the malls, and yes; the food courts, and the bookstores, are busy. The rest: not so much.
