Let's go there now "I've returned to do massage. I don't have many guests. We have to wait until after Christmas." This high season Orawan and her beach massage group members are working and giving massage services to tourists and visitors to Kamala like any other day. Three years have past, Orawan resumed her previous job with income, but the Tsunami Disaster taught her to learn to live safer with nature. " I feel safer than before as now we know which way to go. In case of a tsunami we have to run up to the police station and up hill. That's the nearest location." The massage group is just one among several career groups formed after the Tsunami incident. They all cooperate with civil volunteers in the community with over 60 members. They were all established in the post Tsunami period. The community civil volunteers also include female members. Everyday, they take turns to keep watch for any sign of natural hazards as well as ensuring the highest safety for tourists. " We mostly are ...

World's Coolest Beach Hotels

Stretches of unspoiled white sand, shady palm trees, sparkling turquoise seas - beach holidays are still the most popular way to escape from it all!

Here are the 10 top spots to pose in your Chanel swimsuit with a cocktail in your hand; the coolest beach hotels in the world.

1. W Retreat and Spa, Maldives

One of the world's premier chains, W Hotels have truly outdone themselves at their Maldives retreat. Set on a private island, it's a favourite hideaway for VIPs. From the infinity pool to the six lavish dining options and designer cocktails at UMbar, this luxury hotel is the epitome of beachside chic.

2. Albergo della Regina Isabella, Ischica, Italy

Ischica has been famed for centuries for its thermal baths and, with one of the best spas in Europe, the Regina Isabella has become a home from home for the cream of Italian high society. Opulent, hand-carved furnishings and soft sorbet shades compliment the old-fashioned elegance of the island setting.

3. Aleenta Phuket - Phang Nga, Thailand

Luxurious villas and a long stretch of private beach make the Aleenta Phuket an idyllic place to indulge. In every room, pre-programmed iPods keep guests entertained with the latest tunes. Nearby, the Phang Nga National Park is home to many of the world's best dive sites.

4. The Chedi, Muscat, Oman

Oman might not be the first place that springs to mind for luxury beach hotels, but everything about The Chedi is fashionable. The emphasis on clean lines and exquisite gardens add to the oasis calm. For party-lovers, there are complimentary (and refillable) decanters of gin, whisky and vodka in each room.

5. Four Seasons Resort, Maui, Hawaii

Both the Four Seasons and Maui conjure up images of Hollywood stars sipping champagne, and this lavish hotel doesn't disappoint. Smooth service, seaside massages and free diving keep the iconic resort a firm favourite.

6. Tivoli Ecoresort Praia do Forte, Salvador, Brazil

Eco-chic is hot on the celebrity scene right now, and this sumptuous hideaway offers sophistication, Ocean views and a five-star spa - all with a clean conscience.

7. El Hotel Pacha, Ibiza, Spain

Long a by-word for cutting-edge music, Pacha has the world's coolest clubbing clientele. This minimalist suite-only hotel is a stone's throw from the super club and includes free entry.

8. Bora Bora Nui Resort and Spa Hotel, French Polynesia

Stranded on a tiny tropical island in the South Pacific, the Bora Bora Nui Resort is breath-taking from the moment of arrival. Refined service draws in the cream of the paradise-seekers.

9. Cap Estel, Cote d'Azur, France

The top hotel on the star-studded French Rivera, Cap Estel is so outrageously trendy that it looks like a set from a James Bond movie.

10. Floris Suite Hotel, Netherlands Antilles

Oozing elegant style, this luxury escape in the Dutch Caribbean is a top spot for hip urbanites. Philippe Stark's design brings New York cool to the minimalist interior.

Red Sea Blue

Thousands of divers travel annually to explore the depths of the amazing underwater world of the Red Sea. How many of them, I wonder, spare a moment to question the paradox of this dazzling blue paradise described red?

Of course the name doesn't indicate a permanent red colour as the water is most definitely blue when viewed from afar, golden green around the reefs and transparent when scooped up into one's hand. But just why the Red Sea is so called is a complicated mystery and while several theories abound, none are conclusive.

The sea has been variously known throughout history as the 'Arabian Gulf' or the 'Erythraean Sea'. In fact ancient Egyptian mariners referred to this same body of water as the 'Great Green' or 'Green Sea'. Conversely the name 'Erythraean Sea' has also been applied to the waters around the Southern Arabian Peninsula, which we now know today as the Indian Ocean. The name 'Red Sea' even appears at one time to refer to the entire maritime area between Africa, Arabia and south Asia.

The most common accepted explanation for the current name is the frequent red tide of a plankton bloom caused by a type of algae called Trichodesmium Erythraeum. When these algae blooms die off the blue-green colour of the sea appears to change to that of reddish-brown.

Some say the name is taken from the sometimes peculiar red colouring on the waters caused by the light of the setting sun reflecting off the mountain ranges of the surrounding Sinai Peninsula. In Hebrew these mountains are in fact called the 'Rubi Mountains'.

Others maintain that the current name is a translation error made by early Bible scholars from the original Hebrew version of the Old Testament's book of Exodus, which describes the parting of the Red Sea and the subsequent escape from Egypt of thousands of Jewish slaves led by Moses. The main cause of the confusion appears to be that in the Hebrew text the reference to the body of water associated with the exodus is called 'yam suph'. Translated directly this means 'sea of reeds', leading some to believe that over time reed has simply been misspelled or shortened to red.

Regardless of the origins of its name, there's no doubting the fact that for centuries the Red Sea has been a scene of shipwreck and adventure for pilgrims, pirates, merchants and smugglers.

Today the adventure continues with numerous divers continually pushing the limits to uncover its magical attractions hidden just below the surface, no doubt much more concerned with this mystery than that of its name.

1 year in commemoration of One-Two-Go air crash at Phuket

Special Report for Andaman News NBT (VHF dial) + FM90.5 Radio Thailand at 8.30am & perhaps repeats on Phuket Cable TV channel 1, broadcast to Phang Nga, Krabi & Phuket provinces, Tuesday 16 September 2008 & thainews.prd.go.th Send comments to AndamanNews@yahoo.com Today one year ago, the One-Two-Go Airlines Flight OG 269 from Bangkok crashed and burst into flames on landing at Phuket International Airport at around 3.40pm. The pilot had decided to land in extremely severe & windy weather. During the time, factors like wind shear were widely spoken of as the wind was extremely bad during the landing time. This was the first major accident at the airport in its history. The plane carried 130 passengers and crew and the accident killed 90 people of many nationalities, including Australians, Iranians, Israelis, British, Americans and Thais. An official investigation plus inquiries by victims families had been going on for almost a year before the Thai Department of Civil Aviation revealed the investigation result for the cause of the crash as bad weather & pilot error. For the peace of mind in residents and staff, a Buddhist symbol statue is now established near the airport not long after the accident. Chavalert and Chavit Jit-jam-nong, a father and son, were among survivors, but they lost their loved one, a wife and a mother. He said Now my father looks after me. Im better. I dont want to remember that last moment. I meant to turn to wake mum up, but there was no time. It ...
