The New Year festivities are over and we wish you all had a good holiday
time! Have a great year 2007 with good health and prosperous business. At The
Mangosteen Resort, celebrations were interesting as usual with many shows by
our staff, a big party introducing the new season which promises to be great for
everybody.
The year however does not start without problems. Thailand still has some difficult path back to democracy and the recent bombings in Bangkok have shown that there will be obstacles. We are not expecting this task to be an easy one. Phuket however is far away from Bangkok politics, security is very good and there is no reason to worry. As tour operator or agent, it will be important to explain this to the traveler. Another discussion recently in the news was the appreciation of the Thai Baht which was higher than any other currency in Asia. The unhealthy development is hurting exports and the tourism industry as well and despite the government trials to intervene, we expect the Baht to remain strong and even stronger during the year. The Mangosteen Resort is a boutique style accommodation secluded on the tranquility atmosphere in Phuket. Providing a great romantic hideaway for a ultimate holiday experience. It features spacious luxurious villas with natural cool design. Each villa is equipped with modern amenities. posted on Jan 11, 2007
