Axel Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 Don't worry about the traffic on a Sunday morning, even election day. The Eastin is over in New Petchburi Road/Makkasan Road. Even if there would be demontration at Victory Monument-area, too far away for you. Your only worry, no welcome drink, at least no alcohol on election day.
