webfact Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Phuket mega beach concert cancelledNattha ThepbamrungKrit Sripoomseth: 'We're moving it to Bangkok.'PHUKET: -- The proposal for a mega concert on Kata Beach, the Maya Music Festival, has been withdrawn.Actor Krit Sripoomseth, who presented the idea to Phuket authorities on October 28, told The Phuket News during a flying visit to the island on Friday (November 7), “We’ve canceled the concert already and we plan to move it to Bangkok. There is no problem here now.”The decision came after a cool reception from local authorities at the October 28 presentation, especially about holding a commercial event on a public beach so soon after local business operators had been expelled from beaches around Phuket for doing business on the sand.In light of this opposition Feel Corporation, the company organising the concert, decided to change their plans and move the mega concert to Bangkok.

TTom911 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 whether its a good or a bad idea to hold a concert is a separate matter, but THIS stupidity is typical thai.... "...cool reception from local authorities at the October 28 presentation, especially about holding a commercial event on a public beach so soon after local business operators had been expelled from beaches around Phuket for doing business on the sand..." HELLO - how about (if (!) such an event is wanted in the first place, the concert organiser pays a commercial rent into the public coffers, NOT being embezzled (!!!!) and that money is fed back into the community... ? Too complicated for Thai...!!? Let's be clear here: that has nothing to do with "public concern", they just lost their ways at the moment and don't know how to "divide the money" amongst them without being "detected"........ And Thai logic of course dictates that "if I don't get it then I make sure you (the public) don't get it either....". All wrapped in this stupid argument above...

Ulic Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 It was never going to be approved. I was surprised to hear someone had even put this plan forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimi007 Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Could you imagine the Racket.. Thai music , concert ???? Please...... I'm guessing you've never gone to one. I have and had a great time. It's nice to have friends who introduced me to the biggest rock star in Thailand; Aed Carabao.

fiddlehead Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Yeah, I guess it's better to just sit home, badmouth every idea that comes up, laugh at the local-so called "idiots"- and eventually start complaining and move away (cause there's nothing to do, entertainment-wise) Par for the course.
