As of January 2015, are Phukets beaches that have been "cleaned up" by the government still clean?
There were news in July 2014 about the government having cleaned up the beaces of Phuket from vendors, restaurants and sun chairs.
Are these changes permanent until today? Or have the businesses come back to life?
Best Answer
Beaches are still free of the vendors and chairs. The current government is not easily ignored.
