			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dans la province de Pathum Thani, au nord de Bangkok, à environ 55 de kms de la capitale, se trouve le temple de Wat Phai Lom. Sans aucun attrait esthétique, ce temple est envahi, chaque année, de novembre à mars, par des centaines de cigognes bec-ouvert indiens (Anastomus oscitans) qui viennent s&#8217;y reproduire durant les mois d&#8217;hiver. Tous les arbres du temple croulent sous d&#8217;énormes nids et c&#8217;est dans un brouhaha digne du film &#8220;Oiseaux&#8221; de Hitchcock que nous observons des couples amoureux s&#8217;occuper avec tendresse de leurs oeufs.  Il y avait très peu de bébés lors de notre passage. Une tour couverte permet aux visiteurs de s&#8217;approcher des oiseaux, dont certains nids ne sont qu&#8217;à 50 cm de nous ! Malgré cette attraction, le Wat Phai Lom reçoit très peu de touristes : à part deux couples thaïs, nous étions d&#8217;ailleurs seuls la plupart du temps ! Un lieu calme et étonnant au bord de la rivière. Surtout, ne pas oublier de porter un chapeau pour se protéger des nombreuses déjections sous les arbres. (cliquer sur les photos pour obtenir les versions agrandies de meilleure qualité). Lire cette étude en anglais très complète et établie en 2009 par des scientifiques indiens : <a href="http://www.mtnforum.org/sites/default/files/pub/6161.pdf"><strong>http://www.mtnforum.org/sites/default/files/pub/6161.pdf</strong></a></p>
<p><em><strong>S&#8217;Y RENDRE EN VOITURE</strong></em> :  Prendre la 2nd State Expressway (ou bien la Dong Muang Tollway), puis rejoindre la Bang Pa In &#8211; Pak Kret expressway. Sortie n°214 pour rejoindre la route 346, direction Rangsit &#8211; Pathum Thani puis sortir à Pathum Thani. Continuer sur la route 347, puis  se mettre à gauche, sur la frontage road, pour ensuite tourner à gauche et rejoindre la petite route 3309.  Rester sur cette route et après env. 7 kms, le temple de Wat Phai Lom sera sur votre gauche (plusieurs panneaux et des nuées d&#8217;oiseaux annoncent le temple). Le plan de google map est bien détaillé  //  Tout près, se trouvent le Wat Chedi Thong et le Bang Sai Royal Folks Arts and Crafts Center.</p>

<p>Thai people never loose their sense of humour and are always full of marvellous ideas, even in the worst-case scenario. A lot of fun, dark humor, or unusual scenes, hereunder are some pictures from Facebook, Twitter and Thai newspapers.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="size-full wp-image-1422">Cliquer sur les photos ci-dessous pour une version agrandie de meilleure qualité<br />
Click on the below photos to get bigger and better quality pictures</p>
<p class="size-full wp-image-1422">Les inondations en Thaïlande sont les pires jamais connues dans le pays depuis plus de 60 ans. Elles durent depuis plusieurs semaines voire plusieurs mois pour certaines villes et certains villages. Cependant, l&#8217;incertitude plane, renforcée par la désorganisation et le manque de concertation entre les instances chargées de la gestion de la crise sans oublier leurs différends politiques malgré la gravité de la situation : les frictions sont en effet fréquentes entre le gouvernement en place avec la Première Ministre, la Cellule de Crise  et le Département de l&#8217;Irrigation, soutenu pas les Rouges, le parti adulé par les zones rurales, et le BMA, la municipalité de Bangkok, qui, elle, représente les Jaunes, le parti du Roi et de l&#8217;élite du pays dont la majorité vivent à Bangkok.</p>
<p class="size-full wp-image-1422">Ce qu&#8217;il faut comprendre à travers les discours officiels contradictoires, c&#8217;est que les autorités ne savent plus vraiment comment maîtriser l&#8217;afflux d&#8217;eau, même avec leur système de digues et de barrages érigés à l&#8217;aide de sacs de sable. Personne ne sait grand chose sur la durée des inondations ni leur vitesse ni combien de temps l&#8217;eau va mettre pour atteindre la mer.</p>
<p class="size-full wp-image-1422">Dans ce contexte flou, une seule certitude : les habitants des zones inondées ont le sentiment d&#8217;être sacrifiés afin de pouvoir protéger le centre ville de Bangkok, coeur économique et financier de la capitale, et exigent que les digues soient ouvertes pour que l&#8217;eau puisse se retirer de leurs quartiers et se rendre vers la mer en traversant Bangkok, quitte à inonder le centre ville. Juste demande soi dit en passant !</p>
<p class="size-full wp-image-1422">Même si, comme toute crise, les inondations en Thailande viennent avec son lot de spéculateurs et de profiteurs, je suis admirative devant l&#8217;esprit de solidarité dont font preuve la plupart des Thaïlandais. En me rendant dans la zone inondée de Pinklao, j&#8217;ai eu l&#8217;occasion de voir les jeunes de la Royal Thai Navy travailler d&#8217;arrache-pied dans la bonne humeur pour assister les sinistrés. Et le plus surprenant c&#8217;est que nombreuses sont les victimes qui gardent le sourire malgré la perte de leur maison, de leur travail, sans savoir quand ils pourront revenir chez eux et dans quel état ils vont retrouver leur maison. Fatalisme bouddhiste me direz-vous ? En tout cas, d&#8217;émouvantes images !</p>
<p class="size-full wp-image-1422"><em>ENGLISH : The floods in Thailand are the worst the country has ever seen since the last 60 years. Some areas have been flooded for weeks, even for months for some places ! However, no one can tell for sure how long the floods will last, how fast the waters</em> <em>will reach the inner part of Bangkok and how long it will take to completely evacuate to the sea.</em> <em></em></p>
<p class="size-full wp-image-1422"><em>Thai authorities seems disorganized and aren&#8217;t really able to control the amount of waters approaching the inner parts of Bangkok, even with the dykes, the canals of the city nor the big sand bags barriers. And not to mention that the main authorities involded often disagree and keep themselves busy with a political struggle between the governement (The Prime Minister, the FROC and the Irrigation Department) supported by the Red-shirt people standing for the rural areas, and the BMA, the Bangkok Metropolitan Authority, linked to the yellow-shirts, the King&#8217;s party and the one of the Thai elite, most of whom live in inner Bangkok.</em> <em></em></p>
<p class="size-full wp-image-1422"><em>But everybody understand for sure that lots of floods victims are angry as they feel like they have been sacrificed to protect inner Bangkok and request that dykes are open so as to let the waters leave their areas and go to the sea through Bangkok. A reasonable request I guess though that may lead  to  floods in the economical and financial heart of the capital.</em></p>
<p class="size-full wp-image-1422"><em>While visiting</em> <em>the flooded area of Pinklao</em>, <em>I was struck by Thai people&#8217;s courage, how most of them could keep smiling and joking</em> <em>when experiencing such dramatic floods, without knowing when they are able to return to their home</em>. <em>I was also amazed by the dedicated Royal Thai Navy staff who would assist the flood victims in a good mood. Some would say it is Buddhist fatalism. I would rather say it is moving scenes.</em></p>

<p class="size-full wp-image-1422"><strong>Photo 1 ci-dessus</strong> prise le 25 octobre 2011 : Précédant la période critique du 27 au 31 octobre (celle des marées hautes) et suite à l&#8217;annonce des autorités d&#8217;éventuelles coupures d&#8217;électricité et d&#8217;eau courante, nombre de rayons de supermarchés sont dévalisés en quelques heures. Plus d&#8217;eau, de conserves, de lingettes nettoyantes, de riz, d&#8217;oeufs ni de nouilles lyophilisées. Ici, au Tops de Silom, mêmes les poudres lessive, les gants de vaisselle, les seaux et les chips ont fait défaut. La nourriture (plats préparés, viandes, fruits et légumes) restent faciles à trouver mais les prix de la plupart des produits alimentaires ont bien sûr augmenté. Afin de faire face à la pénurie d&#8217;oeufs et d&#8217;eau en bouteille, les grands chaînes de distribution comme Tesco Lotus et Big C ont dû en importer de Malaisie ! Mais l&#8217;eau disponible (quand on en trouve) reste chère, 3 à 5 fois plus que la normale. Bateaux, bottes et gilets de sauvetage ont fait leur apparition dans les magasins de quartier, articles que proposent également des thaïlandais ayant perdu leur travail et reconvertis en vendeurs ambulants.</p>
<p class="size-full wp-image-1422"><em><strong>Above photo 1</strong>, October 25th, 2011 : Before the high tide critical long week-end of October 27th to 31st, and fearing any power and water cuts, residents of central Bangkok and its suburbs emptied lots of supermarket shelves : no more local bottled water, rice, canned food, eggs, dried noddles nor wipes. Here, at Tops Silom, buyers could not even find washing powder, chips, gloves and buckets. It is not hard to get cooked food, meats, fruits and vegetables, but prices of some items have clearly increased. Tesco Lotus and Big C even had to import eggs and bottled water from Malaisie ! When found, bottled water is 3 to 5 times more expensive than usual. Street shops and even locals who lost their jog and became street vendors started to sell very useful items such as boats, boots and life jackets.</em></p>

<p><strong>Photos ci-dessus, 5 à 29 :</strong> Toutes les photos ont été prises le 1er novembre 2011, entre le pont Pinklao et le quartier de l&#8217;hopital Siriraj où est hospitalisé le Roi de Thaïlande. Cette zone se situe de l&#8217;autre côté du fleuve Chao Praya, plus ou moins en face du Grand Palais. Fermé aux voitures privées, seuls les piétons, les cyclistes et les camions autorisés peuvent  circuler sur le pont. Pour ma part, j&#8217;ai traversé le pont à pied, avant de prendre un bateau à moteur de la Royal Thai Navy qui fait la navette entre Pinklao et Siriraj en 30-40 minutes aller-retour avec la possibilité de descendre en chemin.</p>
<p><em><strong>Above photos, 5 to 29 :</strong> These pictures have been taken on November 1st, 2011, between Pinklao bridge and Siriraj Hospital where the King of Thaïland is hospitalized. This are is located across the Chao Praya river, just opposite the Grand Palace. Closed to small cars, the bridge was open only for walk-in people, bikers and trucks. As for me,I walked across the bridge, then took a motorboat of the Royal Thai Navy between Pinklao and Siriraj, within 30-40 minutes return. People could get off the boat wherever and whenever they wanted.</em></p>

<p><strong>Photos ci-dessus, 30 à 32</strong>, prises le 1er novembre 2011<strong> :</strong> SaphanThaksin est une station du métro aérien de Bangkok mais aussi un embarcadère pour les bateaux longeant le fleuve Chao Praya, le long duquel se trouvent de nombreuses sites touristiques de la ville. J&#8217;avais eu la surprise de tomber sur un petit garçon qui s&#8217;amusait dans l&#8217;eau des inondations. Depuis quelques jours, de plus en plus d&#8217;articles de journaux mettent les habitants en garde contre les infections et les maladies de peau pouvant être contractées dans ces eaux stagnantes, contaminées par les produits chimiques des zones industrielles inondées.<strong><br />

<p><em><strong>Above photos, 30 to 32, </strong>on November 1st, 2011<strong> :</strong> SaphanThaksin is a BTS station but also<strong> </strong>a pier to take tourist and local boats going along the Chao Praya River to get to offices but also some of the city&#8217;s main tourist attractions. I met this young boy playing in the water at Saphan Thaksin pier. Since a few days, press articles have flourished in the local newspapers about infections and skin diseases people may get when going in contaminated waters without any protection. Indeed, in most flooded areas, the waters are full of chemicals coming from flooded industrial zones.</em></p>

<p><strong>Photos ci-dessus, 33 et 34, </strong>prises le 30 octobre 2011 : L&#8217;aéroport de Don Muang est le second aéroport de Bangkok où n&#8217;opèrent plus que des compagnies aériennes thaïes à bas prix, notamment Nok Air et Orient Thai, pour des vols domestiques. Les autorités officielles avaient annoncé que Don Muang allait être protégé. Or, cela ne fut pas le cas et l&#8217;eau a très vite envahi le tarmac. Depuis, le niveau d&#8217;eau est monté et devrait maintenant largement dépasser le ventre des avions ! Les routes sont fermées, les zones dans et autour de l&#8217;aéroport évacuées, seuls les bateaux à moteur et les gros camions peuvent encore circuler et faire face aux courants.</p>
<p><em><strong>Above photos, 33 and 34</strong>, taken on October 30th, 2011 : Don Muang airport is Bangkok&#8217;s second airport but only Thai low-cost airlines such as Orient Thai and Nok Air now operate there for domestic flights. Officials announced that Don Muang was safe but they were wrong as Don Muang was quickly flooded. By now, water exceeds the belly of the aircrafts ! Road have been closed, areas in and around the airport evacuated, only motorboats and bigh trucks can get through the area and face strong currents in some parts.</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>De juin à août, c&#8217;est la saison de floraison des Dok Krachao aux parcs nationaux de Hin Pa Ngam et de Sai Thong. Mais les Thaïs nous avaient cependant déconseillé le premier, devenu trop connu et trop fréquenté. Cependant, sur place, au parc de Sai Thong, nous étions loin d&#8217;être seuls, surtout en ce week-end de trois jours (15-17 juillet). En voyage organisé en minibus, les thaïs visitent 3 parcs en 2 jours mais la route est longue (11h aller-retour de Bangkok) ! Pour notre part, nous avons préféré nous concentrer sur Sai Thong (2 nuits), avec  une halte d&#8217;une matinée à Saraburi le premier jour pour le festival d&#8217;offrandes florales de Tat Bak Do Mai. Même avec les hordes de touristes, la balade d&#8217;environ 4,8 kms (aller-retour) pour admirer les 5 champs de fleurs vaut le déplacement de Bangkok, ne serait-ce que pour le grand bol d&#8217;air pur ! (voir les infos pratiques sous les photos)</p>
<p>From June to August vistors may enjoy the Dok Krachao blooming at Hin Pa Ngam and Sai Thong national parks. But most Thais advised us to go rather to Sai Thong, as Hin Pa Ngam is much more crowded. Nevertheless, on the spot, there were lots of Thai visitors in Sai Thong, especially during long week-ends (July 15th-17th). In organized tours from Bangkok, the Thais would visit 3 parks in only 2 days but the journey is long (11h return) ! As for us, we spent 2 nights in Sai Thong after a morning stop the first day at Saraburi to attend the Tat Bak Do Mai (flower offerings festival). Even with crowds of visitors, it is still worth making the 4.8 kms return walk to see the 5 fields of flowers in Sai Thong National Park. (Travelling infos below the photos)</p>

La balade de 4 à 4,8 kms aller-retour du camping n°2 se révèle facile. Par temps pluvieux, la section allant du camp n°3 vers le camp n°2 en passant par les champs 4 et 5 est assez boueuse mais reste tout à fait praticable avec de bonnes chaussures de marche (les thaïs se contentent de tongs ou de simples sandales de villes). Et surtout, on y rencontre moins de monde sur cette portion que sur le chemin allant du camp 2 à 3 en passant par les champs 3,2 et 1. Les plus paresseux se rendront directement en voiture au camp n°3 qui offre une vue directe sur le champ n°1, le plus grand et le plus beau. // Map of the park : visitors may park their cars at campsite 2 and 3 but most of them prefer to walk from the #2. The 4 or 4.8 kms return walk from campsite 2 is quite easy. When it rains, the path from campsite 3 to 2 through the fields 4 and 5 becomes muddy but is easily overcome with good trekking shoes (Thai people usually wear city shoes). Though dirty, this path is less crowdy than the one from campsite 2 to 3 through fields 3,2 and 1. The laziest visitors may drive directly to campsite 3 which offers direct view over the field #1, the biggest and the most beautiful.</p></div>

<p><strong>MEILLEURE SAISON</strong> : la floraison a lieu de juin à août mais certains sites internet disent que le meilleur moment est de mi-juillet à début août. Lors de notre passage, mi-juillet, le tiers du champ 1 commençait à se faner tandis que les champs 4 et 5 n&#8217;étaient pas encore complètement fleuris.</p>
<p><strong>S&#8217;Y RENDRE</strong> : Sai Thong National Park se situe à 70 kms de Chaiyaphum, sur la route nationale 225 Chaiyaphum &#8211; Nakhon Sawan. Il vaut mieux y aller avec sa propre voiture ou bien passer par un tour organisé en minibus de Bangkok. Un 4&#215;4 est recommandé pour parcourir la portion reliant le QG du parc au point de départ vers les champs de fleurs. Pour ceux qui n&#8217;ont pas de 4&#215;4, des pick-ups partent une fois pleins (60B aller-retour).</p>
<p><strong>SE LOGER</strong> : la meilleure option est de rester dans le parc mais les bungalows viennent tous avec 3 chambres et les visiteurs ne peuvent pas réserver seulement une chambre (<a href="http://www.thaiforestbooking.com/np_home.asp?lg=2&amp;npid=22">www.thaiforestbooking.com</a>). Les campings 2 et 3 disposent de belles vues (sur un lac parsemé de fleurs de lotus et d&#8217;arbres morts ou bien sur le plus beau champ de fleurs, le n°1).<br />
La 2è option est de loger près du parc. Nous avions vu des photos de bungalows qui avaient l&#8217;air d&#8217;être récents mai je ne peux que donner le téléphone car le panneau était en thaï :  0898444628 ou 0819975213 (à env. 10-15 kms du parc).<br />
Autre hotel, proche de Hin Pa Ngam mais à une cinquantaine de kms de Sai Thong : Baanrai Thepkraiwan Resort (<a href="http://www.baanraithepkraiwan.com/">www.baanraithepkraiwan.com</a>).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Le 10 juillet 2011, nous avons assisté à l&#8217;ordination de 285 bonzes novices au temple de marbre ou Wat Benchamabopit à Bangkok. Les novices étaient de jeunes garçons appartenant à des minorités ethniques de 13 provinces du nord de la Thaïlande.  L&#8217;événement fait partie d&#8217;un projet royal destiné à promouvoir le bouddhisme au sein des minorités ethniques. Si il est d&#8217;usage pour les familles des novices de financer ce type de cérémonie, ces jeunes garçons ont bénéficié de l&#8217;aide de sponsor privés qui ont versé chacun 2 500 Baht (soit env. 58 Euros) à un fond spécial de scolarisation. Afin de gagner des mérites, ils ont également offert des robes aux novices. Pour plus de détails et de photos, cliquer <a href="http://www.thai-blogs.com/2011/07/11/hilltribe-ordination-at-the-marble-temple/">ICI</a> (article de Richard Barrow).</p>
<p>From Richard Barrow&#8217;s blog : &#8220;Last July 10th, 285 Hilltribe people, mainly youngsters, were being ordained as novice monks t the Marble Temple also called Wat Benchamabopit in Bangkok. The boys and young adults taking part in this ordination ceremony came from 13 different provinces around Thailand. This is an annual project that has been organized in order to promote Buddhism among the Hilltribe people. This year it was done in honour of the 84th birthday of H.M. The King which is on the 5th December. Normally young men being ordained as monks are supported by their families. However, as many of these Hilltribe people come from poor backgrounds, members of the public were invited to sponsor one of the novice monks. They donated 2,500 Baht to a scholarship fund and were then able to make merit by presenting the robes.&#8221; (For more details and photos, click <a href="http://www.thai-blogs.com/2011/07/11/hilltribe-ordination-at-the-marble-temple/">HERE</a>).</p>

<p>With colourful braces, glasses without glass are the latest trend with Thai youngsters. Weird trend as I dream of getting rid of my glasses (with glass) that I&#8217;ve had since more than twenty years !</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Franco-vietnamien installé à Bangkok depuis plus de 26 ans, Thuan possède un petit bateau de 3 places. Durant 3h30 , il nous fait découvrir, par de nombreuses anecdotes, un autre visage des canaux de Bangkok où il a autrefois résidé.  Nous passons par des canaux verdoyants et étroits, dont certains ne dépassent pas les 1,5 m de large  (les gros bateaux touristiques circulent surtout sur le grand canal de Bangkok Noi et ne peuvent accéder aux minuscules canaux). En chemin, nous croisons des vendeurs de soupe, de légumes, des éboueurs, des agents de l&#8217;EDF local. Même les facteurs et les banquiers effectuent leur tournée en bateau. Très pratique dans ces quartiers ne disposant pas de route ! La pause déjeuner se fait au marché flottant très animé de Lat Mayom. Les gens sont souriants et accueillants. Devant chaque temple, des centaines de poissons chats nous éclaboussent copieusement ! Une belle sortie à la campagne à seulement 20 minutes du centre ville de Bangkok ! La bateau à 3 places peut passer partout, dans les canaux les plL&#8217;argent perçu sert à réparer de petites embarcations en bois (sans moteur) destinées aux résidents du troisième âge des canaux.</p>
<p>S&#8217;Y RENDRE : Tarifs pour 3h-4h de balade : 900 B pour un bateau 3 places (2 passagers + Thuan comme batelier) ou 1 200 B pour un bateau familial plus bruyant (Thuan guide et le batelier est un thai). Le bateau familial ne passe pas dans les petits canaux contrairement au bateau 3 places.

<p>Thanks to Thuan, we enjoyed an unsual three hours and a half boat trip in the canals of Bangkok. Thuan has been living in Thailand for over 26 years, some of them in one of the numerous khlongs. He owns a small 3 seats boat. We got through untouristy and verdant small canals some being no more than 1.5 m wide (the usual long tail boats brings tourists only on the main canals such as Bangkok Noi). On the way, we met soup and fruits vendors, garbage and electricity boats. Even bankers and postmen row around the area ! We stopped at Lat Mayom floating market for lunch where we met mostly Thai people. Beware of cat fish in front of temples, they will splash your personal belongings ! Thuan uses the money he gets to repair wooden small boats for old residents of the canals.</p>
<p>GETTING THERE : Prices for a 3h-4h boat trip : 900 B for a three seats boat (2 passengers + Thuan as a driver) and 1,200 B for a bigger and noisier boat (driver is Thai and Thuan guides). Big boats do not go through the small canals.
