Not always quality

It took me a while to figure out the reasoning why a Thai person recommended I bring certain items from the US, rather than purchasing them in Thailand. Two pair shorts, the one on the left is from the US and wore well for 15 years. The one on the right is from a local major department store after four washings
Another of the short lasting brands the pocket began to fall apart after three weeks

Drainage Construction may cause some travel delays

There are a number of road and drainage construction projects in progress. This project is the road south of Big C, Expo Plaza and CM Center

The 2013 flood was the worst up to that date
  
  
the 2017 flood was the worst in decades
Construction began February 2018
 Up to now, installed drainage did not include drainage openings.  That seems to be changing now

 Here's hoping (but doubtful) that the majority of the project is completed by the start of the rainy season

Deceive mislead journalism.  It's not just the Russians. Theirs are just the more laughable facts

... not the results hoped for

TMD continues to farecast 
" Outbreaks of thunderstorm, thunderbolt with gusty winds and hails.. ," including the Sakon Nakhon Province.  Storms are most likely created due to the extreme heat.  Most weather services expect heavier rains especially Thursday and tapering off Friday. Occasional wind gusts up to 15 km-h.

Sakon Nakhon FC hosted Huai Thalaeng United in a 1-1 draw and remains in eleventh place.  There had obviously been a recent reshuffle in the starting lineup and a few noticeable injuries.
It's my opinion that the 11 meter shot awarded to Huai was a bad call.  
It was a good game, but not the results hoped for

That's how it's done in Thailand

Tree branches and bushes are used for highway hazard warning signs, creating a further hazard, as they are not very visible in the dark. This happened to be a fairly active nightlife  street with restaurants, hotels and shopping malls
Proper highway hazard warning gear should be carried by all drivers
