PHUKET:-- More than 100,000 participants, including foreigners from over 30 countries, together with 10,000 vehicles are expected to take part in Phuket Bike Week 2018, to be held from April 11-21, this year with the theme ‘World Ride Together’.

 

To ready for the huge annual event, now in its 24th year, Phuket Vice Governor Prakob Wongmaneerung met with Phuket Bike Week organisers and officers from the Phuket Tourism and Sports Office at Provincial Hall yesterday (Mar 21) to discuss key issues that may affect the thousands of tourists arriving, and the local community living in Phuket.

 

As such, V/Gov Prakob agreed that more signs are to be installed along the Patong beachfront to warn tourists of that smoking – or vaping – on the beach, or any other form of polluting the sands, could now land any offenders caught with up to one year in jail or a fine of up to B100,000.

Yup. The priorities of this bike week are clearly heading the wrong direction since many years. No smoking and selling crap are more importent then having a good time.

 

Saw the flop last year. It is hard to remember that only 10 years ago Carabao played and Patong was rocking 3 days.
