A man who was travelling with his friends was taken aback by the condition of their rooms at a resort in Phuket. In a post on Lemon8 on Wednesday (Jun 12), user Marcus Toh, a traveller from Singapore, shared his experience staying in a resort while on a trip in Phuket, Thailand.

And that these riders are usually diners at an eatery located nearby or food delivery riders parking their bikes outside that outlet. These motorcyclists usually appear during dinner or supper time. Cai, another resident, said: «I am worried about the children because there is a new HDB block nearby and there are many children running around. If the motorcyclists cannot see them, they may hit them.»
