Sakai off limit to tourists now
Two members of Satun's Sakai ethnic minority have died of typhoid and three others have been in a worrying condition, according to the southern province's deputy governor Utarn Pichyaporn.
He said on Monday that some 50 other members of the minority group living in Satun’s Thung Wa district have been asked not to move to another place. This was aimed at preventing possible spread of the disease to other areas.
