Plans for vendors, motorcycle taxi-driversBy The Nation
2011-02-01


Street vendors will be allowed to sell goods at 201 sites around Bangkok and the registration of new motorcycle taxis and stands will open in about two weeks, Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva said yesterday.

The Royal Thai Police would boost security at 300 spots prone to crime by improving lighting and landscapes, the premier said after meeting yesterday with related agencies to follow up on progress in regard to street hawkers, motorcycle taxis and people's security.

People wishing to work as motorcycle taxi-drivers or to set up a new stand could register from February 15-25, while those already working as motorcycle taxis could confirm their status for entitlement from February 15 to March 15 at the district office near their home or workplace.

The meeting was also told a project to allow "off-system" workers to get loans would be launched on February 14, the Government House website (www.thaigov.go.th) said.

At the meeting, police officials reported that since the national reform plan was launched, average figures from last year (2010) showed they had reduced crime by 40 per cent compared to 2008.

Police also had adjusted landscapes and put up lights at 209 locations, cleared 169 wooded and abandoned spots and 300 crime-prone locations. The next meeting will be held on February 7.
