Surat Thani – Thousands of tourists joined in the Full Moon Party on Pha -Ngan Island in Surat Thani and the Minister of Tourism and Sports even visited the party.


More than 10,000 Thai and foreign tourists joined the Full Moon Party Friday night (August 12th). Tourists were travelling from Baan Bang Rak Pier in Bor Pud sub-district, Koh Samui district to the Full Moon Party all night.

 

Marine officials inspected the pier to ensure safety and prevent any over-fee pricing for speed boats.

So why the continued emergency decree if this is allowed?

Because that crowd's sole intent at the full moon party was to get spaced out on alcohol and/or drugs. Whereas the emergency decree banning such crowds was primarily aimed at protecting the government + others from thousands of protesters in Bangkok and hence publicising to the world exactly what thousands of people in Thailand actually think of them.

"Marine officials inspected the pier to ensure safety and prevent any over-fee pricing for speed boats."

 

Do they do that every month?  Or only when some bigwig is visiting?

Not all "Mass Gatherings" are equal. 
Mass gathering of tourists - OK! 
Mass gathering of protesters - Prison!  This is the new hallmark of 'democracy.'

Was that question really necessary? ????

 

I'm a longtime critic of the TAT. But Kudus for the Minister of Tourism, who sees this time the situation on site.
