Na Jomtien - Readers and local residents have recently noticed that several new illuminated nighttime sitting areas on Jomtien Beach on the newly expanded beach near several popular seafood restaurants and Na Jomtien have appeared, bringing questions if they are considered “encroaching” on the new beach.

 

The areas, which include a variety of camping style chairs and beanbags along with tables and illuminated areas, candles, music, and more have attracted many customers and made this part of the beach more lively, but, have brought concerns about potentially violating laws about encroachment.

 

Mr. Anek Chartchua, a municipality official from Na Jomtien Municipality, inspected the area after videos went viral on TikTok, drawing many customers to the area to enjoy the beach at night while eating and drinking food and beverages from nearby restaurants.

Like moths to a candle.

Give 'em an inch.......!

Just follow the rules:

Rule 1:
Do not send thugs to the beach to assault foreigner tourists who are sitting on the public beach outside of your restaurant.

For now = forever?
