With respect nobody has grasped what I believe this is about, understandably. It's not connected IMO with the police stations as an earlier poster commented. The report seems to read that the TAT Governor made the proposal in light of falling tourism (therefore her/his attempt to rectify it) and here's the key bit "...following discussion in China with tour groups" - which tells you everything about how the world outside the borders of a largely cut-off country culturally, and 'inter-connectedly', sees the free world, eg Thailand. Also how rife poorly informed online gossip floods their social media about how bad this country is.... how unsafe that country is... whether Thailand, USA, Laos, the UK.... an utterly cosseted people. The TAT Gov has clearly been cajoled into thinking of ways to extend the nanny state into the freer world, 'so that tour groups will feel safer'.... as Roger Waters put it..... "PATHetic".
