MiniDebCamp in Thailand

Welcome to wiki page for DebCamp in Thailand.

During visiting Mini DebConf 2009 in Taiwan, a group of Thais (Theppitak, Kitt, Neutron, and Prach) discussed with Andrew Lee about organizing a Debian-related event in Thailand. Andrew suggested to start with organizing a DebCamp. We believe many DDs would love to join the DebCamp in Thailand :)

So, this is a wiki page to gather all information required to organize the event.

Transportation

Local organizer has allocated budget to provide domestic travel expenses for all participants. Each participant would receive 1,000 THB (max.) for his/her round-trip domestic travel expenses to/from Khon Kaen. Please keep the receipt and/or tickets for claiming your travel expenses.

Plane

There are direct flights 3 times daily by Thai Airways International from Suvarnabhumi International Airport (BKK) to Khon Kaen Airport (KKC). From the airport, the local organizer could arrange transportation to the venue. As of September 2009, one-way flight ticket ~ $USD 45-90 (ChristianPerrier: EUR136 for a return ticket as of January 7th).

Schedule:

Train

As some people have asked about trains: North-Eastern trains are available from Bangkok to Khon Kaen. It takes about 8-9 hours for express trains, and 10 for rapid trains.

Schedule:

The railway station, however, is quite far from the airport. This is just provided for people who may want to stay in Bangkok for a while.

More information: State Railway of Thailand

Bus

Alternatively, many people consider air-conditioned bus more convenient for travelling to and from the North-Eastern region. (It's only 6 hours long.) You can check providers like Nakhornchai Air for the schedule. (It's only in Thai. Sorry. Find the table titled "กรุงเทพ - ขอนแก่น" and "ขอนแก่น - กรุงเทพ" on the right.)

madduck: back then, I knew some influential people at the TTA and the telecom, but they no longer work there, and after the uprests of last year, and after Singapore bought thai telecom, I don't have contacts anymore. :( But I will support any Debian activity in Thailand as best as I can.
