HUA HIN, 14 August 2014 – Vendors on the famous beach of Hua Hin have refused to move out after being told to do so by Prachuab Khirikhan authorities, in line with the beach clean-up plan.
Hua Hin governor Vera Sriwatanatrakul said he would explain to the vendors the plan of the National Council for Peace and Order to reorganize busy tourist beaches nationwide in a bid to attract more foreign tourists.
According to the governor, Prachuab Khirikhan’s Hua Hin beach has long been encroached on by a number of vendors and resort owners, who have illegally built their own facilities right on the beach, which have become an eyesore. The province needs to move all the vendors to designated places close to the beach and start cleaning up the beach and improving the landscape.
