Gov calls for mobile CCTV
PHUKET: At the Provincial Security Committee Meeting at the ST Hotel on Thursday, Phuket Governor Niran Kalayanamit called for the local police to look into setting up a “mobile CCTV” unit to roam Phuket’s streets.
“I have seen this new technology on TV. It is used in England, where they use a mobile CCTV unit that drives everywhere and uses a wireless connection to link to the monitors in the control room,” Governor Niran told the committee.
“It would be good if we could also use this technology, especially in the high season. Such a vehicle could record everything and send it directly to the control room. This is a good example of something being used in a more developed country that we should use.
“I want to leave this to the police and the provincial administration to look into as an idea. It would be great if Phuket could have about three mobile CCTV units,” he said.
