The jet-skis have faded out?

That's news to me. Got any evidence?

I was referring to Patong Beach Phuket, as have the beach chairs and umbrella's, ghost beach

Maybe time to have a look yourself before posting.

Right about the chairs etc. Wrong about Jet Skis and paraglide. Those guys have taken over Patong beach.

Still umbrella's as well at the beaches. Just the rented chairs have been replaced with mats, but quite a few own chairs these days.

That's interesting, I was just there for a week and didn't see any jet ski's, then again I was at the beach early, suffice to say it does surprise me that they are still operating, or should I say, it doesn't surprise me with the amount of C in Thailand. Thanks for the confirmation

First there was the jet ski scam, next you won't be seeing tourists catching tuk tuk's, I for one have never riden a jet ski in Thailand, and I can ride, I have never caught a tuk tuk because when I asked many years ago for a ride back from where I had been, the price went up 100 baht, nothing really, so I declined, only to have the tuk tuk driver in the que say; ok 200 baht same same, I kept walking, and enjoyed every minute of it down the hill till I hailed a motorbike taxi who took me home for 20 baht.

I have a very fair one way policy with Thai's, my way, or your way, if its your way, you must treat me as if was a Thai, otherwise its my way, and more money in my pocket.

Eventually the tuk tuk's will fade out as did the jet-ski's, as will the number in tourists remain down down down, pride and ego destroys, competition opens opportunities.

"competition opens opportunities" - there is no "competition" and a free market on Phuket, in the transport industry.

You either conform, and charge the ridiculously out of line price, passing on money up the chain of command, or you get beaten up, fire bombed, etc - and put out of work.

Wait for the CCTV footage , maybe the Thai lost face because farang say stupid things. Loss of face means a fight for life , he was lucky to survive.
