Re: Jet Skis @ Hua Don Beach 6/7 April

Tough luck for people who've already booked their quiet beach holiday in Hua Don.

Re: Immigration warns of fake ‘fast-track service’

Why did immigration need to launch an investigation to find out if the ads were false? Didn't they know already what immigration services are available at airports?

Re: Thailand fuel/pump prices

And how crazy (discriminatory) is it to have increased the minimum wages in some provinces and not others - is their electricity and fuel costs lower? Not only some provinces but also some areas in some provinces. Good job that fuel prices, for example, are much cheaper in Pranburi and Prachuab tow...

Thanks. Doesn't look toooo bad.

Re: Domestic Air Purifiers

So far getting new air filters for our Xiaomi air purifier has been no problem for several years now. But, as far as I know, Coway is a new brand and I wondered whether filters would still be available in a couple of years.

Re: Songkran to become 1 month festival

That makes more sense, but 'floating' is as described in local English press. Perhaps the writer in the "local English press" is confused by the market's name? The writer is also confused by the festival name "Songkran Wicker Basket Flower Shirt". Google translate possibly? The ...

I presume the floating market refers to the intensity of the event. I've just read Bluport will be staging their celebration from 13 to 16 April. Methi...

^^ Yes, but could it (3.5t limit) affect camper vans based on BEV chassis?
