All over Thailand one can find many delicious and clean street food. One of my favourite but rare item is bitter gourd chicken noodle or in Thai will be "kway teow gai mara" It is basically noodles (of your choice) in soya sauce chicken soup with pieces of chicken boiled in soya sauce. At a side table are raw vegetables (including thin slices of bitter gourd of course) and sauces for customers to add themselves into the bowl of their noodle. Let me show you. The stall Open space eatery Car park Cutting chicken and inards The said table with raw vegetables and sauces here you can find from left to right - Thai basil, bitter gourd, bean sprouts. From top to bottom - sour chili sauce, sugar, roasted chili flakes, un-roasted chili flakes, crushed peanuts. Here you see customers topping up the their noodle at the "free flow" table My 50 baht ($1.90) lunch

On arrival there was a procession, really interesting, not seen this for decades so this was the scene there

https://www.straitstimes.com/asia/se-asia/we-can-bring-a-listers-to-thailand-pm-srettha-plans-concerts-visa-free-travel-to-boost-tourism ‘We can bring A-listers to Thailand’: PM Srettha plans concerts, visa-free travel to boost tourism It received about 28 million foreign tourists in 2023 versus a record of nearly 40 million pre-pandemic. PHOTO: EPA-EFE BANGKOK – Thailand Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin said on Feb 22 his government plans to roll out more measures to boost tourism, including incentives to lure global artistes to stimulate South-east Asia’s second-biggest economy. Speaking at a government forum, he said the tourism industry was expected to grow enormously over the next four years, as it recovers from record lows caused by the pandemic. Mr Srettha also mentioned musician Taylor Swift’s highly anticipated, sold-out concerts in Singapore in March, saying Thailand should aim for similar events. “We can bring A-listers and world-class acts to Thailand. This must be done,” he said. He added the government will offer visa-free travel, change the rules on drinking alcohol at concerts, and adjust operating hours of entertainment venues and when alcohol can be sold. Thailand has waived visas for citizens of China, India and other countries in an effort to attract tourism dollars. It received about 28 million foreign tourists in 2023 versus a record of nearly 40 million pre-pandemic, with spending of 1.91 trillion baht (S$71.5 billion). In 2024, the government expects about 34 to 35 million foreign visitors. REUTERS
