Dear Naval Military Police, Military and Police Officers, CIB and any authority that seeks to provide "safety and convenience",

 

Please do not allow the everyday commercial passenger boats to travel overloaded.

An unexpected boost for the Thai garment industry.

Very similar to when HRH the Queen Mother died about 22 years ago.
