Yesterday, I couldn’t open the car door. I notified the security officer to call up the owner to move the car. He tried to ask the officer why they had to move, I show him that I was sitting in a wheelchair, and he had parked over the line. He was kind enough to apologize and move the car. This is a long-standing issue related to the lack of order in Thai society, particularly regarding parking habits.

I recently visited True Digital Park for the first time, which is conveniently located near my accommodation. I would like to share my impressions of the place. The park is quite extensive, and I plan to explore it in more detail in the future. During my initial visit, I parked on the left side of West B1.

I would like to raise this question to the public. I was sued for defamation by publication on the issue concerning accessible parking violations. [Plaintiff] The plaintiff testified at the court inquiry that he claimed a legitimate right to park at the accessible parking spot as his father who had hemiplegia (paralysis on one side of the body) was his passenger.

One of our members sent us picture and reported: >Today around 1pm, they parked there out of habit. >I want our society to acknowledge the rights of people with disabilities >Our society really does not value their rights enough, totally everywhere

The issue of accessible parking spaces can be improved in many ways, and we have worked to solve this problem during the last 7 years in as many aspects as we could. In the policy aspect, we were appointed to be part of the committee. However, the movement had not been successful. This will be the second chance to get this problem solved.

At Tesco Lotus Rama 3 where the accessible parking space was incorrectly used as a rental area for retail purposes, we decided to start a discussion on our page and within less than 30 minutes, a person who was using the accessible parking space called me to apologize, and said that he would move his car ‘immediately’ out. After that, he also took a picture and sent it to me as a confirmation. Later on, the manager of the rental department at Tesco Lotus Rama 3 called me and I insisted firmly that the area needed to be strictly managed.

Throughout the situation of Covid-19, security forces are the only group of people that is authorized to enter the area under 2 hours. However, in the area, there are no disabled people at all. Nonetheless, we are looking for the keepers of a white car. If you are the owner of this car please do contact us. As for the person who parks over the area, please notify them as following:

I went to UNIQLO at Pattanakarn so I also take a look at the surrounding. 1. Accessible toilet: The toilet is good, clean and accords to Thai standard but UNIQLO is a Japanese brand and I hope to see Japanese standard. 2. Building Access: It is accessible. I do not usually see the floor on the inside and outside of the building level. This eliminates the concern for ramps. The inside is a flat ground.
