Yes, people are hording. There was a picture on the front page of the Post showing people returning from songkran in the village carrying sacks of rice to Bangkok.

Keep your eye on China. It is there sudden increase of wealth that is a major factor and they have to keep their people fed and have the military to back it up.

Thailand said they will honor all export contracts. Meanwhile they also acknowledge more is disappearing through cracks.

Rice is the new white gold. Maybe soon the poor rice farmer won't leave their farm to find riches elsewhere.
