The draft by the Ministry of Transport is expected to be put to use this month or within July.

For your entertainment (and in some cases, our common commiseration), here are travel titbits Thai can relate to.

» With the Great Event, otherwise known as election day, just around the corner, like most countries in the world we will have to brace ourselves for regular helpings of political poppycock including plenty of promises from prospective candidates. Still, it could be fun.
