PHUKET: Phuket province has stepped up security measures after a car bomb on Samui island and a fire at a cooperative in nearby Surat Thani Province last night.
Phuket Governor Nisit Jansomwong revealed that the province seriously intended to offer all travelers the highest safety of both land and maritime transport.
Phuket Police have been inspecting all vehicles particularly pickup trucks at Tachatchai exit-entry checkpoint. Simultaneously the Third Naval Area Command oversees security at Phuket International Airport while extra voluntary naval officers are added to supervise water-splashing zones.
Rassada Pier in Phuket City was also inspected by Phuket's governor. All public ships and ferries are ordered not to take excessive numbers of passengers and all of the passengers on board must wear life jackets. Fire extinguishers must be in ready-to-use condition.
Today at Rassada Pier, there are a great number of Thai and foreign tourists taking ferries from Phuket to Phi Phi Island. Most of them are still satisfied with the security measures of the government and confident in using transport services.
