PHUKET:-- After the quietest start to Songkran in living memory, people today started arriving at checkpoints in the hope of being allowed through on the first day of the two-week “lockdown” order by the Phuket Governor.

 

Checkpoints have been set up on main roads across the island to prevent any unauthorised persons from leaving their home subdistrict (tambon). The lockdown began at 00:01am today (Apr 13) and will remain in effect until 23:59 on Apr 26 or “until otherwise ordered”.

 

The Phuket office of the Public Relations Department (PR Phuket) has posted a reminder of the conditions that people may be allowed through the checkpoints following what it called a “distortion in the online media regarding cross-district / district license requests”.
