Island resort turns back on US visitors in protest

Americans will be told to go elsewhere

A famous resort on Koh Samui is turning away American tourists in protest against US attacks on Iraq. Wirat Pongchababnapa, owner of Pavilion Resort Koh Samui on Lamai beach, said the resort would not welcome American tourists. The protest was also against President George W Bush ``who liked violence and wanted to have enemies''. ``We think the United States is immoral and shows no respect for the UN resolution. He has started a war for no reason. ``I am just a businessman who can do nothing. But I want to be the first person to dare protest against the war. ``If American tourists come to us, we will tell them politely that we cannot welcome them and we will give them a ride to other places,'' Mr Wirat said. He said it would be horrible to have to see the killing of Iraqi civilians, although he believed the US would defeat Iraq within five days once the fighting started.
