PHUKET: -- About 300 Karon residents and business operators crowded into a meeting room at Phuket Provincial Hall Friday morning to air their grievances about beach regulations.

Karon Beach vendors told Dussadee Arayawuthi, deputy permanent secretary of the Justice Ministry, that they were badly affected by the beach regulating policies implemented within the past two years.

“Look at Pattaya, where beach businesses are flourishing. Beach vendors add charm to the sands,” said Manas Yenjit, the leader of Kata-Karon umbrella group. “We have been operating on the sands for a very long time. Once the rules were set, we followed them.”

“Usually, we would simply stick to the law in such cases, but in this instance we have to look at the situation on its own merit.”

Does that mean that they are considering not following the law?
