Bangsaphan Guide

Yes, the airport in question was the one in Pathiu, Chumphon. This should be a bit more than one hour's drive away I suppose, so not so remote. A local restaurant owner claimed Nok Air has plans to start flying to the airport. A lady at the Coral hotel however claimed that Nok has cancelled these pl...

Heard that Nok Air is allegedly starting flights to somewhere close to Bang Saphan. Anybody that knows something about this?

Not exactly down here, but I recommend Isaan lawyers. They have helped me to deal with the BS land office. PM me if you want more details.

There's one Suan Luang resort right where you put it, but Suan Luang Beach Resort is a different resort I think? Just to make life a bit more confusing...

[snip] Did you ever find out about the gas/petrol issue? Apparently there is some production of cooking gas up the hill in the direction of BS center seen from TOA builder merchant. This is on the hill a few hundred meters above the main bar area in BS. I attached a pic of the factory sign that say...

8000 per sqm seems like a nice and low cost even with quite cheap material.

Passed at least two building suppliers on the road from BS center to Petchkasem Rd, intend to check them out in due time. I'm also looking for a decent builder if there is one...there should be, I've seen plenty of houses that look nice at least on the outside. The building suppliers should know som...

Hi, I am looking for an English tutor in Bang Saphan between September 13 to October 28, can be quite flexible with the exact time and dates within that period. It is a Thai relative of my wife who needs some English tutoring. Any takers?

Hi,

We are a family planning to go to Bang Saphan to stay there for a month or two in September-October. The exact period is not decided yet. We would like to rent a house for our stay, do you know of anything out there?

Noticed there seems to be a Muay Thai camp "Siang Boxing Gym" somewhere close to Suan Luang resort in Bang Saphan? These guys also have a website with videos of own fighters at Lumpini and stuff:

Anyone who knows Siang Boxing?

Good stuff Doug!

Bizarre. Then what about intellectual property rights in software, clothing and what not. But watching a football game with English commentary - crackdown time! Not the best tourist campaign I could think of.

I wonder who not-so-bright at RS/TrueVisions has friends in high places?

Congratulations! That's = to 1.3m per rai. Obviously you're happy with the price and it seems good to me, but I wonder what those on the ground think? Did you ever find out about the gas/petrol issue? Those on the ground - you mean the guy who sold the plot? I think he was satisfied with the price,...
