Popular Post webfact Posted December 16, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 16, 2021 The Royal Thai Police has ordered 80,000 police officers to not take leave during the New Year holiday period between Christmas Day on 25th December and January 4th, to facilitate people travelling home and the estimated 7 million cars leaving and returning to Bangkok. This year it is expected that, from December 29th to January 4th, 1 million more vehicles will travel in and out of the capital than the year before. People making their way back after the New Year break will experience the greatest traffic volume on January 3rd, therefore all traffic police units will work together to map out and inform the travelling public of alternate routes, bypasses and shortcuts. Construction sites are to speed up the restoration of road surfaces, to be completed by December 25th, 2021.

IAMHERE Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Does that iinclude those 'inactive deska' Still, a pretty large number of BIB in Bangkok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gsxrnz Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 I didn't know there were enough donut shops in Bangers to support this number of BIB's. I forecast a supply side shortage and consequential inflationary pressure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydebolle Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Well, it will allow Somchai in uniform to replenish to New Year's bonus with little contributions and gifts by all those drunk drivers - keep up the good work! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
