The Thai and Malaysian governments believe that the bridge will increase travel and business between their nations. A road connecting Bukit Kayu Hitam and Sadao will increase trade between Malaysia and Thailand, and both ministries want to hasten its construction. To accomplish their $30 billion bilateral trade goal by 2025, Malaysia’s Saifuddin Abdullah and Thailand’s Don Pramudwinai made an agreement to upgrade border infrastructure in August.

In July, Malaysians were the most prevalent foreign nationals entering Thailand, particularly via the province of Songkhla. However, an area assessment and topography survey must be finished first.

The Thai Cabinet authorized a nearly 1.6 billion dollar budget on September 7 to address Thailand’s ongoing flood issues. According to reports, water levels in certain regions rose to approximately 30 centimeters, which caused traffic issues, especially for tiny vehicles.

The extensive amount of waste in the canal that blocked the drainage system contributed to the flood in addition to the severe rain. A representative of the Chonburi Province’s…

Despite the controversy, the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration is in discussions with BTS. It is difficult to integrate transportation providers with alternatives for public transportation. The BTSC has been considering combining Rabbit Card, a ticket that covers all means of transportation, with ticketing systems for some time. After the Pink and Yellow lines open, a new joint card might be used. While OTP focuses on one ticket, other collaborations continue. The companies are negotiating a combined MRT/BTS ticket. If the proposed legislation is passed, commuters and users of Bangkok transit will benefit from having a single card for all modes of transportation. Transport Minister Saksayam Chidchob would submit the suggestion for final approval and ratification to the Cabinet, Council of State, and Parliament if the panel approves a single Bangkok public transportation ticket. Bangkok’s traffic could get less complicated if the Office of Transport and Traffic Policy and Planning has its…

Staff from Hat Noppharat Thara – Mu Koh Phi Phi National Park on Friday saw a group of about ten bottlenose dolphins in the southern part of Maya Bay. The three-year closure of Maya Bay was successful in reintroducing plant and animal species that had vanished as a result of visitor overpopulation. The blacktip shark is the most prominent animal to return to reproduce in the bay. It was “the most gorgeous site she had ever seen,” according to a German woman. August 1 marked the beginning of Maya Bay’s closure, which will last until September 30. Prior to that, it had reopened on January 1 following a 2018 closure. A park ranger told NPR in March that no one would ever consider seeing the local sharks before the park closed, when there may be over 6,000 visitors per day. He claimed that 160 sharks may be observed on a…
