Jai Dee Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 AoT to reserve seats in Suvarnabhumi Airport for monks The Airports of Thailand Plc is finding appropriate seats and toilets in the passenger building reserved for monks as requested by the Department of Religious Affairs. Suvarnabhumi Airport Director-General Somchai Sawasdiphon (สมชัย สวัสดิผล) said AoT had already reserved a special room in the passenger building for high-ranking monks. The company has instructed airport officials to reserve more seats for monks. The director-general admitted that there are not enough seats in the passenger buildings despite additional 2,000 seats brought from Donmuang Airport. He affirmed that this problem will be resolved as quickly as possible. As for toilets for monks, he said at present the monks use general male toilets as AoT has not finished the construction of toilets reserved especially for them. The construction is expected to be completed by next month.

leisurely Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Why would that be newsworthy? All the other airports in Thailand that we have been to have special seating areas for the saffron robed. Obviously I can't comment on the hong nam situation for them!
