RE: Tourists behaving badly in Thailand stories... this time in Phuket
unfortunately the government sees things like this as an opportunity to get a soapbox and get elected so if they can create an outside enemy they can get support. Nothing quite like a shared affront to bring people together. But in the case of Thailand they desperately NEED the tourism money to support their economy so they are in a lose/lose situation.

I have checked and turns out tourism is the second largest income source in Thailand, so they are stupid to do this, but hey, no one can save you from yourself, as they say.
