heybruce Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 There is no mention of Nimmanhamin being one-way. Does this mean the one-way experiment will only apply to the sois between Nimmanhamin and Sirimangkalarn? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doji Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 The plan doesn't seem to have favorable reviews from the locals so far. The majority thinks it will be the "mission impossible". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
