The History of Phuket (Part 1) || Colin Mackay

Colin Mackay is the Author behind the hugely popular book, A History of Phuket and the Surrounding Region.

Colin is a Scotsman who was born in Kenya and grew up on the Tanzanian Coast. After gaining his Master’s degree in History at Edenborough University he left for Hong Kong to become a journalist. The City’s lifestyle leads him on a hunt for money where he then changed careers and became a financial broker, at the age of 28, Colin made his first million.

Join us in today’s episode of Fruiting Body Podcast where we go back in time to discover the fascinating history behind the beautiful island of Phuket and its surrounding regions. Colin shared with us his life journey from salvaging ships for gold, managing huge funds, becoming a property developer and writing his very own book.

This episode is one for the history books and explores the early life of man, kings, wars and country. We discuss the Siam Empire, who was first to settle in Phuket, the early development of Phuket Town and how Thailand was a key land in the war of many nations.
