ArticleFame.com | Phuket Island:
"Phuket Formerly known as Tha-Laang or Talang, is one of the southern provinces of Thailand. Neighbouring provinces are from north clockwise Phang Nga and Krabi, but as Phuket is an island there are no land boundaries. The island is served by Phuket International Airport, located in the north of the island.
The ph of 'Phuket' is an aspirated a soft 'f', so the name is pronounced roughly 'Puck-get'. The name Phuket is apparently derived from the word Bukit in Malay which means mountain or hill, as this is what the island appears like from a distance. "
