A Facebook user ‘Panisa Laelem’ on Wednesday (June 27) posted a PICTURE on her personal Facebook with the message… “I have just seen the news yesterday about Chinese tourists climbing on the sculpture. Today I see with my own eyes….four foreign tourists. They might not know or there is no warning sign.”

Krabi City Deputy Mayor Channarong Leelaburanapong says, “Krabi Tourist Police have been contacted after we saw the video clip. The sculpture hasn’t been damaged.”
