The airport director said the tow vehicle had missed the hard-surface path.

The guy in the white tshirt in first photo, excellent PPE he is not wearing and not overlooking the sandals. So missed hard surface, wrong clothing for airside safety. Very sloppy, maybe another ICAO visit. Posted by expat tiger on May 2, 2015 16:03

No wonder other Asian countries want Thailand to clean up their 'air industry acts'. Even towing a aircraft on a Thai airport now seems to become difficult. Not very promising.
