Generally people
in Thailand do not work on Saturday and so planning meetings would generally
revolve around week days. It is advisable not to travel to Thailand for business
purposes during Songkran, and we would recommend adding 5 - 10 days each
side before making a business trip, and definitely reconfirm before travelling.
Important Note: Government offices are usually
closed on Public Holidays and on Mondays if the holiday take place during the
weekend.
