No restriction on tourist numbers visiting Similan Island for three months
The Phuket Administrative Court has issued a temporary order for the Similan Islands. The order overturns a recent restriction on tourist numbers on the island for three months.
Yesterday the Phuket Administrative Court ruled to temporarily stop the restriction of tourist numbers visiting the Similan Island from January 1 to March 31.
The President of Similan Surin Tour Operators, Nipon Sommoh says, “This is just a starting point.”
“We have suffered in the past from a lack of tourism income. When the number of tourists increases, we are sure that the island’s natural resources can be managed.”
“We will operate the service whilst taking care of our environment.”
