PHUKET: -- The last of the buildings found to be built on public beachfront land in Phuket were demolished at Lay Pang and Layan beaches on Tuesday.

Ma-Ann Samran, former president of the Cherng Talay Administration Organization (OrBorTor), along with government officials, gathered on the beaches to witness the destruction.

“We had earlier demolished 100 buildings across Lay Pang and Layan beaches,” Mr Ma-Ann told the gathering. “On this beach, business owners filed a motion in administrative court to avoid demolitions, but it has failed.”

one by one,...Rome was not build in a day !?!?!....it's happening, that's the important thing.

Just an interim measure until anonymous officials bankroll the next lot of beach buildings.

Oh, the irony...

That would be the same government official that did nothing for years as buildings originally constructed by the OrBorTor to aid tsunami survivors were illegally rented out to businesses at Surin beach.

Some people believe a lot of money was passed around during that time, but it seems those days are over.

"Rome was not build in a day" - sure, but it took several decades to create all of this beach encroachment on Phuket, yet, it should only take a matter of months to remove it all.

The Thai military have been in power for over 2 year here.

Demolition does not, and should not, take that long. Unless................................
