Patong Beach patrols increase to crack down on violations
Patong police and municipality officials have increased patrols on Patong Beach to crack down on illegal activities such as the sale of fireworks and night-time alcohol vending. They are also enforcing restrictions on setting up tables and chairs on the beach. Similar operations conducted earlier in May resulted in the arrest of at least three illegal vendors. Patong Police are urging the public to report any illegalities on the beach.
