Thailand Voice

The Thailand Voice Award for “Blog of the Month” goes to Andy for his blog called Changwat, Amphoe, Tambon for his untiring dedication in bringing us everything that we could possibly ever need about the administrative process of Thailand.

THAILAND VOICE BLOG OF THE MONTH: Changwat, Amphoe, Tambon

TWITTER: @MaewNam
DESCRIPTION: This blog gives us everything about the administrative subdivisions of Thailand – history, current news, little known facts, reviews of corresponding books and a lot more. There is very little in the English language about the running of the country at a local level and so this website is very invaluable to many people. Even Thai people could learn something as often their provincial or district run websites are hardly ever updated.

DESCRIPTION: Flo is only 23 years but it would seem that he has already lived a full life and experienced many adventures that we could only dream about. Although he bills himself as only a journalism student, he is in fact a freelance journalist in his own right. His style of  reporting and dedication to getting the job done during the red shirt protests, marked him as a veteran journalist to many of us. Flo has been living in Bangkok for the past two years and blogs about his many adventures and things he experiences in the land of smiles.

The Thailand Voice Award for “Thai Blog of the Month” goes to Tony Joh’s Thai-FAQ for his tireless effort in making his video blog which answers frequently asked questions about living and working in Bangkok.

DESCRIPTION: Tony first came to our attention during the red shirt protests with some excellent video footage right in the thick of things. However, he is as much at home making videos about apartment hunting, buying a mobile phone and out and about exploring Bangkok. His videos and commentary are often informative and nearly always funny. If you haven’t seen any of them already then this site is definitely worth bookmarking.

The Thailand Voice award for “Blog of the Month” goes to Talen’s Thailand, Land of Smiles for his contribution over the last few years in promoting Thailand as not only a tourist destination but also a place that you can come and retire. His passion and enthusiasm for the country is obvious in his numerous and varied posts.

DESCRIPTION: Talen started Thailand, Land of Smiles in 2007 with the intent to share his experiences through stories and pictures and in the hopes that someone planning their first trip to Thailand or their 20th could find some useful information and tips in his writings and maybe get a better insight into the great mystery that is the Thai culture.

The Thailand Voice Award for “Blog of the Month” goes to Catherine Wentworth’s Women Learning Thai… and some men too for her contribution to learners of the Thai language by providing them with numerous resources and moral support over the past few years.

DESCRIPTION: Women Learning Thai is an expat making her way through Thai language and culture. By her own confession, she is not a teacher nor is she a fluent Thai speaker. In fact, she says, “I’m pretty cacca at languages”. So WLT is a student struggling with all things Thai language learning, with a bit of expat living thrown in. When she finds something that works, or that might work, she shares it on her site.
