Wanted to comment on the East coast becoming a UNESCO protected area. As it was got directed into this forum on reviving tourism in Southern Thailand.

Updated content: Rows of beach chairs and piles of rubbish should not become part of the scenery. Revive the tourist numbers but don't destroy the land.

I still like the possibility of UNESCO coming in. Hope it happens for real.
