My daily posts on Facebook

Facebook is probably the most used social media in Thailand. 

From Private posts, to business and government agencies, news networks, etc 
I do almost all my communications through Facebook these days. 
It's simpler than blogs, more interaction. 
My daily research does take me to other media.
Recently began tabbing / cataloging my facebook posts


#luanghans  about me and my friends, music I like, travels, opinions 

#sakonnakhonlive  "of interest to travelers and expat"

#sakonnakhonlivecalendar  events calendar

#sakonnakhonfootball ⚽️ You may recognize as SOCCER. 
In the past I sponsored local teams, was team photographer for local professional team

#sakonnakhonliveweather  forecasts and warnings☔️⚡️☀️🌕 

#zooologyx   animals as pets, in the zoo, in the news, bugs and other pests

'Sakon Nakhon-Live' heydays have come and gone. At age 79 I wish to limit my time in front of a keyboard.

If you don't speak the language use translater in your browser for better answers

As an example I have listed two web pages:
The english version of wikipedia 'Sakon Nakhon Province
The Thai version of wikipedia 'Sakon Nakhon Province' (จังหวัดสกลนคร)

Very obvious is the fact that the Thai version contains a hell of a lot more information.

Same applies for anything else you want to know or are looking for from specialty shops to contractors. Translate your question into Thai, then use the translation to search for your answers

It's like asking locals for information, rather than foreigeners.

Old Sakon Nakhon Jail demolished

A new Jail was built outside of town when it was decided having the jail accross from two schools was not appropriate
