Husband and wife duo call for Thais to clean up beaches before reopening
A husband and wife duo in Hua Hin Thailand have taken it upon themselves to clean up the beaches of Prachuap Kiri Khan and has called on Thais around the country to help do the same ahead of the country opening up on November 1.

The duo, who run a blog called Life out Loud, said that they wanted to raise awareness about the trash and pollution issue on Thailand’s many beaches which has continued despite the lack of tourists.

The duo say that if they can make an impact on their local beach then Thais everywhere can do the same by helping organize beach cleanups.

Fairplay to them but the article doesn't mention the fact that there are organized groups such as Trash Hero that have been cleaning up the beaches for years.

I know Thais are often criticised for not doing their bit in keeping their beaches clean. However, they have put in a sterling effort today, led by Hua Hin's Mayor.
