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.

Local Team

  • Kitt <kitty at kitty.in.th> will gather all the people and organize the team. Debian is community-driven, organizing this event should be like that too! For now, he will be the point of contact.

  • Neutron <neo.neutron at gmail.com> will be local coordinator and local staff.

  • Thep <thep at debian.org>.

  • Prach <prachpub at gmail.com>.

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:

  • BKK 06:15 - KKC 07:15
  • BKK 11:15 - KKC 12:15
  • BKK 18:20 - KKC 19:20
  • KKC 07:50 - BKK 08:45
  • KKC 12:55 - BKK 13:50
  • KKC 20:05 - BKK 21:05

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:

  • BKK 08:20 - KKC 16:20 (Express)
  • BKK 18:30 - KKC 02:10 (Express)
  • BKK 18:40 - KKC 04:15 (Rapid)
  • BKK 20:00 - KKC 05:05 (Express)
  • KKC 20:11 - BKK 05:00 (Express)
  • KKC 21:05 - BKK 06:25 (Express)
  • KKC 22:16 - BKK 08:00 (Rapid)
  • KKC 08:39 - BKK 17:10 (Express)

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.)

Weather

See KKU weather station or Weather Underground

Conference Facilities

  • Network: KKU is one of the GigaPOPs of UniNet - Thailand's hi-speed inter-university backbone. KKU directly connects to the GigaPOP switch at 1 Gbps (+ 200 Mbps backup link), and provides 1-Gbps fiber downstream to all buildings in the university. Also, KKU has the campus-wide 802.11b/g wireless network to access the Internet. Kitt could contact KKU's Computer Center to provide additional network facility for the event if required.

  • Conference room: ILTI seminar room, 6th floor, IT Bldg.

  • Cost: conference facilities are sponsored by Computer Center and ILTI, KKU.

  • Capacity: 30 - 40 persons

  • Handicapped people: able to access most buildings through ramps and elevators

  • Audio/Visual: could be arranged by the local organizer.

  • Accommodation: Kwan Mor Hotel. We have already reserved 20 rooms during 12 - 19 Mar 2010 for participants.

Sponsors

  • Khon Kaen University may provide local sponsors for network connectivity, conference venue, local staffs, transportation.
  • Kitt will contact local government/private/non-profit organizations to get more sponsors.

Food

  • Thailand is the world's kitchen. And, Khon Kaen is the capital of buffet -- barbecue, foods, even beers :)

  • Dishes are relatively cheap ($USD 1-5).
  • Lunch/dinner meals, drinks, snacks are provided by local organizer.

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.
