Phuket has made its own move to counter Pattayas promotion for free hotels. Phuket will end the low season and now call it summer season.
The Thai government will host the “new†and safe Asean meeting in Phuket and people on the island hopes it will show how safe Phuket is.
Phuket is known to be a Democrat stronghold and the risk of the redshirts coming all the way down to Phuket is not that big.
All the hotels in Phuket will try to come down to Phuket for summer fun even if its low season.
