Photo: Phuket City MunicipalityPHUKET: Phuket Municipality, in conjunction with the Phuket City Police, have announced new curfews for Sapan Hin in an effort to reduce teen violence in the area.The new policy follows orders from the Phuket Provincial Office to strengthen security at Saphan Hin after gang violence led to the shooting death of a 15-year-old bystander during the final hours of the chaotic Phuket Vegetarian Festival (story here).Starting November 16, the entrances near the Prince of Chumphon pavilion and the Saphan Hin police box will be closed from midnight until 5am, while the entrance from Rattanakosin 200 Pi Road will be closed from 10pm until 5am.Full story: http://www.phuketgazette.net/phuket-news/Saphan-Hin-curfew-starts-Monday/62356?desktopversion-- Phuket Gazette 2015-11-14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felt 35 Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Hmm.... could nearly believe its Saphan Hin which is the problem... not the teenagers. Just like they not have another area to gather in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cockatoowho Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 We have shut the gate, I wonder where the horses are. No worries I am sure they will easily find somewhere else to corral, not our problem now, somebody elses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linden Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Chalong bay area. Bad enough already but the gangs hanging around at night will make it much worse. The BIB at the roundabout wont go down the dark streets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lupatria Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 (edited) At the age of one I discovered that I'm actually not hiding by covering my eyes with my hands. Now I learn others are not that lucky. Edited November 14, 2015 by Lupatria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canthai55 Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 (edited) Gang violence endemic the world over. As an aside ... Heard a radio interview with Hank Williams Jr. years back. He was asked what he thought of Gun Control ... His answer - "Putting 2 bullets in 1 hole - That's Gun Control" Post modified. Please use standard font.
