Chong Chom Border Crossing UPDATE.

[khwaibah]

I have just returned from Chong Chom. Yesterday the crossing and the market were closed. Today the market and crossing is open. If you need to do due a border hop get moving, army could re-close without notice. security is very thick in this area. Remember the new visa regulations are in effect at this crossing. The van service from Surin station is running about once an hour. Parking is very limited, they let me stop and take photo but had to leave asap. There still NO silver casino vans or tourist buses running. Photo with tout, the crossing about 75 meters in back of him.

In the past half hour have seen 3 double decker tour buses and 4 silver casino vans heading for the Chong Chom Border Crossing. Game On.. As I said this crossing is now enforcing the new visa regulations.
