New Summit Tipped For Phuket In June

[Boater]

The government plans to host an Asian leaders' summit in Phuket in June, after red shirt protesters forced the recent cancellation of the Pattaya conference.

Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva said the Foreign Ministry was considering Phuket as the venue for the meeting between Asean leaders and dialogue partners from China, South Korea, Japan, Australia, New Zealand and India.

He stressed the need to consult other countries about their confidence in returning to Thailand before making the final decision on the date and venue.

Great just what we need, this mess in phuket....

Now no mess in Phuket Forum.

......but perhaps a bit messy in the Phuket News and Events Forum.......

Perhaps if the new summit comes to Phuket, "the powers that be" might fix the main road heading south, going through Thalang.

I can dream can't I ?........
