Look to the bright side
Life, Sirinya Wattanasukchai, Published on 30/01/2012
» There's always a positive side to every bad luck. For those whose houses were hit by floods last year, this is a good time to rearrange your homes and welcome the Year of the Dragon. Damage caused by floodwater makes it easier for you to decide which pieces to throw away and which to keep, and where exactly the new furniture should be placed.

Life, Sirinya Wattanasukchai, Published on 26/09/2013

» I am sure brake lights and wheels of cars -- be they Japanese, European or American -- are the latest hip art fad in Bangkok.

Bangkok bus stop another building flop
