Ranong Observations

Greetings--

Just made another Ranong run, this time I drove instead of used a tour service. Noticed two things of import:

(1) At the Immigration Center a swarm of Burmese "repatriates" being herded about, beaten over the head, and shoved into a cattle truck. Nutts to butts, males and females together. The new immigration rules are not to be triffled with.

(2) Burma now charges $10 for their visas but instead of two days they are now good for two weeks. 14 days in the Honey Bear Hotel... one shudders at the thought.
