Yeah Nicke
your right that was my worry I think that they could pay of the national debt just from those in and around patong at closing time. I have read in the gazette that they have been doing the tests and cracking down over the last year or so especially in and out of phuket town. I myself noticed alot more check points around the place but mostly in and out of Patong on my last trip but they were only stopping those that didnt have a helmet and I have since read that the passanger now needs to be wearing a helmet as well as the driver. Starting to become very much like home now.
