本月,曼谷被美国有线电视资讯网评为全球第一街边美食之都。曼谷已经连续两年获此殊荣。
However, since seizing power in 2017, Thailand’s junta has led a campaign to “clean up” and “return happiness” to the country, focusing on issues such as late night drinking, corruption and the sex trade.
但是,自2017年泰国军政府上台以来,便开展了旨在“整顿风气”、“把幸福还给国家”的行动,致力于解决深夜饮酒、腐败和性交易等一系列问题。
Chawadee Nualkhair, a Bangkok-based street food blogger, said authorities’ previous attempts to remove stalls had failed.
曼谷街头美食作家查瓦迪称,曼谷政府先前曾尝试清除路边摊,但均以失败告终。
“Street food was still too popular with the locals,” she said. “Of course, it would make Bangkok less charming. But it also takes a big chunk of cheap options away from working Thais, and closes up an avenue of work for many. Where will shop employees, construction workers and taxi drivers eat?” “街头小吃还是太受当地民众的欢迎了,”
查瓦迪说:“当然,路边摊的确是让曼谷市容受到了影响。但是,如果它们全被清走了,泰国的工薪族就少了很多平价的用餐选择,也会剥夺很多工作机会。没了路边摊,商店员工、建筑工人和出租车司机要吃什么呢?”
