Re: Aftermath in Phuket

Animation of the tsunami. Seems like it hits 1st Sumatra, then Phuket, Penang after which Sri Lanka then India. If someone have presence of mind to call Sri Lanka , India etc since the tsunami hits them couple of hrs after Thailand and Malaysia were hit, perhaps many lives cud hv been saved.

Even a cute girl I know who was in Khao Luk (one of worst hit places) was lucky to be in her office on the hill when it happened and she sufferred no damage on herself too. Lucky her but not for a couple of thousand other people from all over Thailand and the rest of the World.

Whatever, I am going to Bangkok tomorrow for the NY and until the 4th. I need to let out some steam to close off this year!

And, I will go to Phuket in Feb during CNY.
catch you there during cny. i try ticket now. have fun and happy new year.

Re: Aftermath in Phuket

bangkok ran almost full during the New Year !
1) Lots of refugees (tourists) from the Tsunami areas seeking aid from their embassies, hospitals etc.

2) Lots of normal year end tourists and even more as many diverted from disaster areas.

Despite the early closing hours and 3 days of mourning, most entertainment joints opened late and some till 6am on NY's eve. No regrets to be in Thailand to spend NY Holidays for me and my friend.

Re: Aftermath in Phuket

Bro Natto3,

The late owner of Timber Rock Khun A died in the Tsunami and his younger brother is now running the place. We really hope it will be as good a before if not better because Khun A was quite special as the owner.

His story goes this way:

He was out at Surin Island on a dive trip.

That morning the main party left by boat to dive and he stayed back to have an extra coffee with another farang diver chap.

They noticed the water recede and decided to go up the hill behind them. Halfway up the hill, he remembered his cellphone, wallet and car keys and went back down to get it from the tent.

The wave came and got him when he was down there.

Surely there will be other stories of other people that we know etc. Hopefully less will be better than more!

The market is softer now but rates you are quoted in Phuket town e.g. Rome Hotel 4th floor is still ST2k and LT4k.

I had a 21yr old sweetie (special order via local contact) for 3.5k LT.

Did not check out the beerbar farang scene but it looks pretty normal and I can say that the whole island is alive and kicking back! With special fares and hotel deals, Phuket is surely on the mend!

Re: Aftermath in Phuket

yeah, you're right bro sassina, i think phuket is happening again. there are many promotion till next month at least. even the women!
the worst hit area was actually khao luk which is about 100km north of phuket. it was a relatively new area and the damage was tremendous. banyan tree suffered hardly any damage at all. i heard that only the sheraton laguna and the beach stalls suffered seveare damage. people in the pool rooms did not know the enormity of the situiation till later. when you back?
