What to do if you catch a cold in Thailand
Komsan Jandamit, Published on 27/04/2026
» A cold or fever can knock the shine off a Thailand trip faster than a monsoon shower, and doctors in Bangkok are urging expatriates and tourists not to dismiss the early signs.

» Sangyond Loongta, 12, has never heard of PM2.5. Neither has her 14-year-old sister Kamong, nor their two-year-old sister Mauypong.

Life, Chavisa Boonpiti, Published on 21/03/2026
» Morning work commutes in Bangkok are tackled like olympian tasks. For some, it's a trudge down a narrow soi, followed by a motorbike taxi serpentining through traffic, leading to a transfer onto the BTS or MRT.
