Top Chinese diplomat requests tourist-safety overview from Pattaya officials

PATTAYA:--Following the rape of two Chinese tourists in Pattaya, Beijing’s No. 2 diplomat in Thailand called on Pattaya-area officials to get an overview of what is being done to protect the city’s largest tourist group.

Zhu Wei Thong, chargé d’affaires and consul general, joined Liew Kwang Zhen, secretary to the ambassador, in the Sept. 21 meeting with Chonburi Deputy Gov. Chawalit Saeng-Uthai, Banglamung District Chief Chakorn Kanjawattana and Pattaya Deputy Mayor Ronakit Ekasingh

City officials explained Pattaya’s tourism-management system, noting the same system and measures applied to all tourists, regardless of nationality.

Ronakit outlined the five steps Pattaya has taken since last year, when a number of Chinese tourists were killed or hurt in marine accidents, including using buoys to delineate safe swimming zones.

Other measures include segmentation of Pattaya Bay for use by everything from jet skis to restaurant boats, traffic management for boats of all sizes, integration of public and private organizations to respond to marine emergencies, raising the awareness of the importance of safety among boat operators, and new regulations to require rescue equipment, life jackets and proper licenses and identification.

No mention was made of safety measures on land, including on Koh Larn, where two Chinese women allegedly were raped by two Thai speedboat operators Sept. 2.

pre·var·i·cate

prəˈverəˌkāt/

verb

speak or act in an evasive way.

"he seemed to prevaricate when journalists asked pointed questions"

synonyms: be evasive, beat around the bush, hedge, fence, shilly-shally, dodge (the issue), sidestep (the issue), equivocate, waffle;

Hope this helps the diplomat to understand what he's just been told.

two Chinese women were raped by Thai men and the communist Chinese have not started executing Thai villagers yet?

they must be getting soft.

I am glad someone has the ear of the officials !

Tourists have been targets for decades and when something happens the officials either do not care or slap the hand of the bad guys ,

Anyone know if the Tuk Tuk guys at back at the Palace after being booted a few months ago ?

Mr top-chinese-diplomat keep on them please
