Sakon FC slaughtered at Mukdahan
It looked like an intense match for the first 20 minutes.
After that someone must have pulled the stopper on the Sakon team and flushed all their energy
The new Sakon goal keeper doesn't seem to have what it takes.
The defense wasn't much help either. Not their best performance.
One of Sakon star players was out with an injury and his absence on the field was quite noticeable.
Why the steam went out of the Sakon team is a mystery, maybe the two hour bus ride to Mukdahan was just too strenuous.
The Mukdahan team very obviously outperformed Sakon. The player who impressed me the most was the Mukdahan goal keeper. Nothing went past him

High Season Countdown
One month until the rainy season hopefully ends.
Indications are that this year's rainy season may wish to linger a bit longer.
Flight searches to Sakon Nakhon seem to be up. A reminder to travel planners: NOK Air is the exclusive airline serving Sakon Nakhon SNO (airport code).
If you're still uncertain as to the when, and what to do, TATnakhonphanom** on YouTube has some video's that may be of interest to you. Here's one they did about Sakon Nakhon, produced earlier this year.

Sakon Nakhon Artistic Construction Zone
The posters are up.
Final preparations are well under way for the
2011 Sakon Nakhon Royal Longboat Races and Wax Castle Festival
October 8 through 12
The Wax Castles are over 30% completed, but there's still plenty to do for the artists.

"COPY" Thailand
There have been recent complaints of the overcrowded conditions of Bangkok's rail system.
The problem is that Thais tend to emulate Japan as a model, rather than a western model.
Just be glad they are not using India as a model

The Sukhumvit line needs more carriages:
