Out with the Fire Rooster and in with the Earth Dog. How a year has passed so quickly and we are now getting ready to celebrate another Chinese New Year (CNY) on Feb 16.

THE Transport Ministry plans to open bidding for the construction of the Purple Line’s extension from Tao-Poon to Ratchburana, as well as the Orange Line from Thailand Cultural Centre to Taling Chan, worth a total of Bt224.11 billion in the first quarter of next year.
