    one main reason is to allow or encourage tourist to stay longer and that they will spent more money in the place and Thai will have more money hahahah... everything is money. all that comes out from our mouth is profit.. money and money and more money....

    So the ttourist will have to wait another two days,, this sudden change of schedule should have been informed earlier so touris would have go somewhere prior to that province... but because of money and more money... tell the changes in last minues and tourist got no option but stay and spent their money and dollars, yuan.... wew
