Consultant Bunthit Siritanyong and members of the
Pattaya City Council met Sept. 6 with the Pattaya Press Association to
discuss a structure for the media-relations office and policies
governing its operation.
“Pattaya has many organizations that have plenty of
missions which are very well responded by the public,” he said. “Being a
tourism destination that is internationally recognized, Pattaya’s
communications and advertisements are not very good, causing the
information communicated by various media organizations to have
discrepancies leading to damage to development plans.”
The spokesperson’s office would coordinate and
advertise projects, problems, complaints and report to the media and
general public for clarity in stories and to move in the right
direction, Bunthit said.
City Councilwoman Yuwathida Jeerapat was nominated as
spokesperson for the city and staff will be picked later.
