Nong Bua Lamphu - what an excellent choice! 

I am sure that the uncles and grannies of this province, lost between Loei and Udon Thani, will be more than delighted over the opportunity to share their 15 minutes of fame. Imagine hotels, restaurants and venue operators going all into overdrive; maybe not in service level but certainly in billing abilities ;-)
