PHUKET: A man has been apprehended at the Phuket checkpoint by police and denied entry after it was discovered he was illegally using a friend’s proof of vaccination certificate to enter the island.

 

Of greater concern was the fact he had used this illegal method several times before and been granted entry to the province successfully.

 

The man, a deliver driver coming from Phang Nga driving a white pickup truck, was planning to enter Phuket in the early hours of yesterday morning (July 14) when police, led by Karon Police Deputy Chief Lt Col Somporn Surin, pulled him over.
