According to a Thai PBS World report, there had been some initial confusion, after the park chief issued a statement ordering the closure of, “all tourism-related activities”. Some media outlets interpreted this as meaning everything on the island, including hotels, was to close. However, officials have since clarified that the closure order […]

      News Forum - Chiang Mai teacher dismissed over student lunch programme mismanagement

      In response, the Deputy Minister of Education plans to propose to the Cabinet the allocation of a lunch budget for secondary students in extended opportunity schools, to ensure all students are fed. However, the timeline for this depends on Cabinet consideration. Sounds like his heart was in the right place, just his method wasn’t by the book. Clearly what he did wasn’t for personal gain. Hardly something he should be fired over. A slap on the wrist would have been more appropriate.

      Concerning 'Kraut' : Has anybody you know ever tried out with the Cabbage- & Mustard-relative which the Chinese call 'February Orchid' - or Orychophragmus violaceus in Latin & 'Chinese Violet Cress' in English, in Thai gardens ? It is supposed to be the most nutritious of all members of the Cabbage Family...and is even a "good looker" which can be grown as an ornamental plant, apparently ? And then I wonder whether you Thai gardeners have ever wanted to start to breed your very own type of 'TROPICALLY ADAPTED & HEAT-RESISTANT THAI GARDEN ROSE' ? Because only yesterday I discovered that the only known 'Proper Tropical Rose' - which the botanists call Rosa clinophylla (or sometimes Rosa involucrata) - has actually been discovered growing wild in both your northern Chiang Rai Province - where it is known locally as 'Nam Kam Hai' - and then also over in your E and SE Nakhon Phanom and Ubon Ratchatani Provinces of Thailand,- where it then is known as 'Khonta Nam', locally. And this particular, wild Rose is apparently the ONLY KNOWN ROSE TRULY ADAPTED TO TROPICAL CLIMATE CONDITIONS, and in Thailand is only found at low altitudes, of 200 and 400 m. And then this particular Rose has even adapted to thrive under SEMI-AQUATIC CONDITIONS, and in its Indian haunts typically has been found growing out in rice-fields, with only its top-branches sticking out of the water. Then this Rose may vary a bit in nature, but in some forms occur naturally as a small shrub of only about 1 m., and with a single, rather big, white and sweet-smelling flower produced on top of each stem...and thus perfect seem to show the perfect qualities to start hybridization-experiments to create 'The New, Tropical, Thai Garden-rose', I now dare to suggest : Or...what do YOU think, 'Over There' - ?!
