There is no cause for concern whatsoever. The point of the memo was simply to ensure that security forces are prepared to quickly respond to whatever situations may arise, especially as Phuket is an international tourist destination,” said Gov Chamroen.Full Story: http://www.phuketgazette.net/phuket-news/Phuket-Governor-demands-investigation-security-memo-leak/63169?desktopversion -- Phuket Gazette 2016-02-16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klauskunkel Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 The point of the memo was simply to ensure that security forces are prepared to quickly respond to whatever situations may arise And the point of the above statement is to showcase the every day state of responsiveness by security forces, who need a fake memo of a terrorist threat to stop playing video games and on-line chatting whilst on duty.

KenKadz Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Is this really the kind of information that should be kept from the public? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dageurreotype Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 The governor confirmed that he had received word suggesting the possibility that certain people may intend to cause unrest in Phuket. What 'certain people' exactly? I think we should be told. Can hardly rely on the authorities to protect us from certain 'certain people' can we Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobb Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 This security leak should not be a problem at all. It sound like the Governor is trying to make himself look good with the press clippings to show what a great job he is doing. The only leak is from him but this should be in affect every day if he does his job to make Phuket safe. So sad to see a man such as he as a Governor!
