Cha-Am blog by onlychaam

The Kingdom celebrates His Majesty’s 82nd brithday on December 5. As it falls on a Saturday, Monday will be a day off in lieu. Thai people will thus enjoy a long week-end, and Cha-am will probably be packed with Thai people coming from Bangkok. There will be a ban on alcohol sale on December 5th (and bars will be closed) and a crackdown on drunk driving is announced, but you still want to be very careful if you drive around, as there will be a lot of traffic.

Please note that December 5 is also Father’s day in Thailand, so we wish all the best for all the fathers out here. Yes I’m also a happy and proud one!

We wish His Majesty The King a very happy birthday and a good health for the many years to come.
