Accessible Ranking

The last time I took a photo of it was about two months ago. There was one step at the entrance which was completely inaccessible for wheelchair user and very risky for ordinary customers to slip on it. I’m a regular of this branch since I usually have a business meeting there. And I used to inform the staff many times regarding this growing concern. Recently I went there as usual and found this problem was fully disappeared. They redesigned a step to become a seamless slope. It’s a simple gentrification with ease of use and cost-effectiveness. I no longer …

Believe it or not, a virtually good fish ball, rich in texture and mild in flavour, is so rare to find. But I found one. It happened about two years ago when I roamed around Rama2 area of Bangkok and randomly encountered with a local noodle & fish ball shop. I was first amazed by its high level of accessibility, considering that it’s local. Be it a slope, a toilet, or even a seat table and many more.

I got this image from my young colleagues who was studying in the UK. It’s a priority park in Bicester Village, a large outlet in Oxford. At first sight, you must recognise immediately that it’s located in a developed country. Deep down you could see that: 1. It’s mostly unoccupied 2. No barrier on each lot 3. No staff authority or security officer Let’s do an anatomy, why this scene can happen: 1. Strict regulations and penalty 2. Justice law enforcement by authority 3. Respected by people In fact an violation and misuse of priority parking by selfish people happens …

  Mega Bangna is the only shopping mall in Thailand that its quantity of accessible parking exceeds the minimum requirement by law. Months ago, we had intensively received numbers of reports about the misuse of priority parking, especially at its underground parking, Blue Zone. We decided to conduct a field work there so many times and have a honest talk with security officers who was in charge there.

6 Jan 2018 / Bangkok, Thailand: Mega Foodwalk, a brand-new zone of Mega Bang-na, has been opened for service. An executive guaranteed that their work on accessibility was in best deliberation to comfort all customers with ease like never before. Parking, slope, restroom even the park they’re all accessible.

People with disabilities, PWDs, do not want to rely on others. We just want to live a normal and happy life. We don’t necessarily want to ask for help. Difference in physical condition is commonly normal as everybody is created as unique as they are.

I firstly met him almost a year ago when I accompanied with some of my team highlighted that “this fish noodle shop is not just a special one.” Oh yes its taste was excellent but the very unexpected thing was the accessibility of the shop which was incredibly functional. I didn’t face any difficulty coming in and out. It’s brilliant!

Please Help MeThis morning, I got a call soon after I woke up. It appeared to be a very hotline asking for help from Jeab, and her team. They were going to Phit-sa-nu-lok for trip by AirAsia airline. One of her team member was an powered wheelchair user. The airline didn’t allow bringing his battery, necessary forpowered wheelchair, on board. So I suggested her to call any other hotlines for help, as possible as they could find, at the very intense moment.

I’m collecting problems found on public transportation. On Bangkok MRT Blue line, I’ve found a one you are seeing on the images about misused signage in the station. After deploying from a train looking for an elevator, it is quite confusing to find it as the position of signage, with its arrow, are located wrongfully.

The most delicious lunch set On our traveling program, the one can’t miss out is to try the local food. We were very happy with this lunch set. We went to Oshino Hakkai, close to this the picture. The restaurant open on 11am, chef went out taking care of us very nicely. Best food & good price, if you go there worth to try.
