BANGKOK — A month after the capital’s largest flower market became the latest landmark to fall to City Hall’s cleanliness and order campaign, a group of students will keep some of its spirit alive.

I'm not a fan of the street vendors here in general and they're out of control in many parts, but that was a nice area to visit and something that added to Bangkok's charm. Another step towards turning Bangkok into a Singapore with pollution and traffic gridlock.

I only clicked on this headline because I wanted to see what kind of dead flowers they were selling at this market, it sounded very avant garde.
