Oodles of noodles
B Magazine, Suthon Sukphisit, Published on 02/06/2019

B Magazine, Suthon Sukphisit, Published on 30/04/2017
» Thailand is becoming an ageing society and some of us need to be well prepared. How will your life be after retirement? It's wise to plan how to get by in those possibly empty-handed years.

» There are only three days left until Songkran, a festival that is celebrated throughout Thailand, but that is especially significant for the Mon community. The special importance it has for the Mon may have to do with the strictness of their Buddhist belief and the firmness with which they have maintained their cultural traditions. When Songkran arrives they celebrate it in a way that preserves the original character and meaning of the festival, creating an event that we can admire or, better, take part in.
