Five foreigners spend their holidays cleaning up rubbish along Krabi Beach

Five foreign tourists have spent their holidays today collecting rubbish along Laem Pong Beach in Krabi. They say they say they are very sad to see rubbish strewn all over the beaches and felt compelled to clean it up.

38 year old Latvian man Uldis Baumais, one of the tourists, says, “We have stayed at a hotel near the beach for 10 days. We have found lots of rubbish but no one collects this rubbish or cleans the beach.”

“Why?”

“We are very sad to see this. We want people to care more about Thailand’s lovely beaches.”

“Please don’t litter the beaches, especially plastic. When the beach is clean, everyone is happy. ”
