It would be nice if they provided a hot line number to call for specific trafficking tips...maybe offer a reward for convictions. Just a thought.

@rc - you are under the impression that they actually want to do this. This is all for show - nothing more nothing less.

In all of this not one mention of the Rohinga.

Are all beaches in Thailand Public? None are privately owned by hotels? 2 days ago I was denied access to Amari Coral Beach Phuket. The security guard and staff at the hotel claimed that I had to be a hotel guest to get access. Is this within current legislation?

Editor Comment:

We understand that access must be provided by property owners to all beaches in Thailand.

Some people walk their dog, and some people keep their birds in a gilded cage; as for walking the talk? Priceless, and an extremely rare bird indeed.. brightly colored with multiple hues of delightful feathers, falling from heaven..
