» Plant lovers still have today and tomorrow to check out the annual plant fair being held at Suan Luang Rama IX Park. The much awaited event draws not just Thais but also plant enthusiasts from Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines. Last year, a friend who lives in Cagayan de Oro, in the southern Philippines, bought a plane ticket three months in advance in anticipation of the event, which is held every year from Dec 1 to 10. Imagine his disappointment when the fair was cancelled due to the floods that put much of Bangkok under one metre of water for several weeks.
