Poor face challenges as living costs rise
Poor face challenges as living costs rise
Sunday 30 October 2022, 11:00AM
The rise of food and energy bills has had a profound impact on families from our poorest communities in Phuket, who live hand to mouth. Rising fuel costs mean many of the fishing boats cannot afford to leave the pier, and therefore the crew, often migrant workers, do not get paid and their families do not eat. Growing children, pregnant women and the elderly have been the most affected.

Sunday 23 October 2022, 11:00AM
‘Inspiration’ is a quality many in the Andaman region are seeking in these challenging times. Having recently returned from three months in the UK, my first impression of Phuket was a feeling of rather gloomy resignation to the current difficulties. While the pandemic seemed to be under control and had been officially ‘re-branded’ as a ‘communicable disease’, the touristic life-blood of the island is still very much a hoped-for dream.

It was the mid-1990s and I was working as a senior vice president for one of the world’s largest communications groups based in Bangkok. I seemed to be forever jet-lagged from flying around Asia-Pacific to various meetings. I had high blood pressure, took sleeping pills to cope with work stress and jet-lag and had intractable sinusitis from the acrid air pollution of the city.

My dear friend of many years, Sam Wilkinson sadly passed away some weeks ago back in his home-town of Liverpool, in England. Sam was a wonderful character, known and loved by many in Phuket and around Thailand. He was a sort of romantic troubadour and wandering artist of abundant talents… in music, words, wit and just the noble art of enjoying life to the full! Sam was always kind and loving, sometimes almost unworldly and seeming to belong in a kinder, gentler era than the one we now inhabit.

Mangrove forests are an overlooked attraction on Phuket. They are not places that you will find most tourists, who generally favour our sunny beaches and raucous nightlife, but with the recent announcement that the forests east of Phuket Town will be developed into an eco-tourist attraction, perhaps that will soon change.
