    She is a very good lady. You should appreciate her effort in helping you all to call for the van. And some might thought that “oh she got kickback or sort of rewards from the driver in calling his service “ , please don’t think like that. How much would you think the driver would given to her ? 200 bht 300 bht? Or 500 bht? What is this hundreds bht ? I rather be happy in helping with genuine heart than taking little money as reward. Because the happiness arisen in genuine kindness always greater than monetary reward! ☺️

    Hi Ken & friends 👋🏻 wow they are so nice people and helpful for arranging the taxi van 👍 certain area they have limited time for transportation Ken. I remember last time we took a taxi van from Bukit Kayu Hitam border of Malaysia to Hatyai and we had to make a booking from the same guy that took us. Just inform the time and place of hotel where we wanted them to pick-up. That will be much easier , that was always the case. The driver appreciated and was happy because we made booking and they always punctual on the dot 👍😁

    Key Ken,
    immer wieder schön deine Videos zu sehen! Denke auch gerade darüber nach, erstmal nach Thailand zu kommen bis sich die Pandemie Situation global wieder etwas entspannt hat. Auf welchem Visum bist du eigentlich in Thailand? Gibt es die Möglichkeit, länger als 90 Tage im Land zu bleiben, ohne wieder Aus- u. Einreisen zu müssen. Dies würde ich unbedingt vermeiden wollen, da dann ja auch wieder eine erneute Quarantäne Pflicht anfällt.

    • @KenAbroad
