Phuket beach management plans delayed again

PHUKET: Local officials are still wrangling over how to manage Phuket's beaches, forcing Vice Governor Chokdee Amornwat to postpone revealing details of the new plan beyond his self-imposed November 1 deadline.

V/Gov Chokdee admitted to the Phuket Gazette yesterday that the release of a concrete plan regarding the future of the island’s beaches would be delayed for at least another two weeks.

On October 20, the Vice Governor announced that four working groups had been assembled to tackle the tricky beach management problem, including bringing on the island's top religious leaders to weigh in on the issue (story here).
