PHUKET: -- Chalong Police Chief Col Nopadon Thiraprawat has assured The Phuket News that police have not confiscated any mobile phones from sea gypsies in Rawai as representatives from Baron World Trade Co Ltd attempt to mark out the claimed land in the village this morning (Mar 1).

The alarm was raised by villagers posting on Twitter and Facebook pages that police and military personnel were allegedly confiscating mobile phones form the villagers “so they could not record what is happening”. (See here and here.)

“There are about 60 officials, including 30 Chalong policemen, at the Rawai sea gypsy community this morning,” Col Nopadon told The Phuket News.

“We are there to look after people’s security, both sides, as representatives of Baron World Trade Co Ltd are starting to install pins to mark their land in the area,” he said.

Col Nopadon denied that policeman had confiscated phones from sea gypsies at the village.

So where are they at with the false or corruptly obtained land titles. Sounds like a reasonable commission has made the problem disappear and its business as usual in Phuket.

Who would have thought anything different.
