Green Fair.

The Thai Hotels Association (THA), headed by Wichit Na Ranong of Phuket's Pearl Hotel Group, has the right idea -- sell environmental conservation/eco-tourism as a cost-saving device and you'll create an instant incentive for business people. Not only will they save immediate money while protecting the country's greatest asset -- its natural environment -- they'll also be investing in the future of the tourism industry.

To get this point across, the THA, along with the Metropolitan Waterworks, Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand (EGAT), Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) and Phuket Marine Biological Center, have recently held a series of environmental seminars across the country. Discussions have covered topics ranging from the use of recyclable and washable products in hotel guestrooms (as opposed to non-biodegradable plastic) to protecting fragile coral reefs.

We hope the hotel association's initiative will bear fruit and that more such seminars and exhibits will soon be held for all tourism-related businesses. The need to preserve Phuket's environment both immediately and in the long term is an idea whose time has come.
