Get onto www.8a.nu and find a link to the Railay website.
According to what i read - the facilities are in good shape but most importantly, they are wanting people to
go over - the tourist dollar is there lively hood. They need us to survive.

On the other side of the coin, Went into my travel agent today (flying out early Feb) and their people said
not to travel there (Krabi region) due to the strain on the local infrastructure. Krabi is disaster management
centre for Pucket and Phi Phi.

I'm torn. do i go over for a 'holiday' knowing what has happened and will be happening in the region for a
long time to come or by not going, these peoples livelihood is in jepody.
