Not Telling
Alot of the problem is that all the national park money that is paid by divers goes into a pot and is distributed evenly to all the national parks in Thailand, about 180 through the whole kingdom. So even though Similan's pulls in alot of cash, it doesen't get to keep it all.
Also after discussions I have had with the Marine and coastal resources dept about this exact problem they told me the best method is to take pics of these boats who are fishing in the national parks and send them to the papers like the Bangkok post so they can highlight the problem in the media.
Another problem they have is that there are constant management changes and transfers, so things never get done.

LOL, I knew you should have got your eyes checked when you shot that footage of a barracuda school and didn't even notice the whale shark in the background.
On the flip side. Mr Howard Marx (Mr. Nice) notorious weed smuggler said in his book that he also had trouble focusing after a few. So he got really wasted and then went to the optician and got checked out so now has a perfectly adjusted pairs of bins/monitor/lens.
But Nick I know you for so many years and it's just an excuse to go chat up the Top Charoen Optical girls in their white uniform.
