Phuket Opinion: Coordinate Manpower To Corral Illegal Taxis

[NamKangMan]

NamKangMan, have you ever been to phuket at least once in your life?

Clearly not, otherwise you would have realized your solution would solve nothing.

99% of taxis are not metered taxis and don't have a meter on board. And I'm not even talking about tuktuks and illegal taxis.

You don't need to be a rocket scientist to understand that you need to put meters inside taxis before enforcing their usage.

I live here. I see, everyday, how the lack of transport is hurting people and the tourism industry here.

"You don't need to be a rocket scientist to understand" than baht buses in Pattaya DO NOT have meters in them, and that system up there works great.

As for airport taxis - they should all have meters, and use them, just like in Bangkok.

It really isn't "rocket science" - it's about being allowed to have what other places in Thailand have.
