Tour Operator Fined for Allowing Beer and Smoking at Phi Phi Islands
Authorities fined a tour operator 10,000 baht after tourists were filmed drinking beer and smoking cigarettes at Pileh Lagoon in the Phi Phi Islands, violating national park rules. The widely circulated footage sparked public outrage and led to swift official action. Park officials reaffirmed their commitment to protecting natural sites and warned operators to adhere strictly to conservation laws.

TV news stated the boat operator has also had their permit to operate in the national park suspended (but didn't say how long the suspension was for).

 

Good scheme, hit them financially.

A "bit harsh" but  I'd guess that the tourists had a trash can for the bearcans and stuff
