| Subject: Thailand's military needs the prostitution income: curfew lifted at ten beach resorts Wed Jun 11, 2014 12:42 am | |
| The Thai military has agreed to lift its night-time curfew in seven more beach resorts popular with international tourists.
There are now ten islands and coastal districts where the nationwide curfew, effective from midnight to 4am each day following a military coup, will not apply.
These are Phuket; Ko Samui; Pattaya; Hua Hin district; Cha-am district; Krabi province; Phang Nga province; Hat Yai district; Ko Chang and Ko Phangan (including neighbouring island Ko Tao).
These islands and resorts are some of the most popular destinations for tourists who come to Thailand for a beach break.
Bangkok, the capital, remains under curfew however. Chiang Mai – a popular destination for trekking and visiting tribal villages in the north – is also still under curfew, as there have been some political protests since the coup on May 22.
