It not the tourists fault.

 

It is the fault of the government and tour companies.

 

The need to only allow the tourists to swim in certain places.  Then make marine reserve of the other places that ban all fishing, tourism, etc.  Easy really and costs nothing.  However, they won't be making any money out of the reserves so they will never do it.  Money overrides everything in this world, not just Thailand.

 

They also need to stop all the pollution and overfishing... which is a much bigger problem than the out of control tourists.. who are being used as a scapegoat in this situation.

Correct! And no doubt TAT will agree with you!

I don't know what they are worrying about they guttered the crap out of their own fishing industry so much, they were one of the first to have fish farms..........................................
