Hua Hin food sellers will sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the municipal administration, committing them not to overcharge customers, especially for seafood.
This measure follows a social media complaint by author Somchai Liewwarin, who reported being charged excessively for seafood, sparking widespread public criticism.
District chief Thanon Panphipat initiated meetings with food sellers, leading to the agreement to sign the MoU and enforce strict adherence to trading regulations.
Food sellers are now required to display clear price lists and service fees to ensure transparency and prevent future instances of overcharging for tourists.
