if so, Grassland n konsortium coach is much slower den KKKL OR SRI MAJU. mayb u can try them out.... buy 1 way to hatyai n buy return coach at the tour agency in Hatyai.. it will cost much cheaper..they cost ard 800 to 850 bht.. hope u understand wat i say..
So the booking in Singapore can be done at Goldenmile?? I understand what u are saying because ive been to Hatyai regularly sometimes by plane or i ride up there on my motorcycle every songkran..

I think i will give the train idea a miss because i thought its a one way train ride all the way to sadao borders.. lol...

time is an essence for me because its hard to find excuses to tell my OC.. i last went in february from 16th to 19th to accompany my TGF..

I think the tour bus is not under grassland anymore because i called them yesterday and enquired about the rates and etc..

I am riding to Betong for this year's Songkran from the 12th to 17th and i still haven tell my TGF that i am not spending songkran with her.. will be going hatyai on the 20th April to make it up to her..
