Chong Chom Border Crossing UPDATE.

Kap Chong R Us Member
I have just returned from Chong Chom. Yesterday the crossing and the market were closed. Today the market and crossing is open. If you need to do due a border hop get moving, army could re-close without notice. security is very thick in this area. Remember the new visa regulations are in effect at this crossing. The van service from Surin station is running about once an hour. Parking is very limited, they let me stop and take photo but had to leave asap. There still NO silver casino vans or tourist buses running. Photo with tout, the crossing about 75 meters in back of him.

You have two ARMY check points to deal with. 1st is a snap it just before the market the 2 nd one is about 500 meters before the crossing that one can be interesting, I was able to BS my way threw it. Parking at the crossing is strictly controlled. You still have the touts to deal with. As for the casino, aside from the 3 loser buses and a couple silver casino vans yesterday afternoon NOTHING. Gives a report. Thanks.
 
The Mrs wants to come, I can't seem to get it through to her that it is not a good idea, she seems to think I can't do it without her yet I have traveled all over Thailand and Cambodia alone. The truth being I can do it better alone.

My sentiments entirely Wombat. Fortunately my wife understands , and leaves me to it.
 
Just got my 90 days, quickest run I ever did. Border is open to farangs who need to do a border run. I don't know how those without a visa will go as that is not part of the problem with the coup. The market is open. I did not see any Thais leaving but lots of Cambodians coming in.
Update, a silver mini van just dropped some Thais off, also a songthaew did a drop off. Word must be spreading.

Do you really trust those touts ? pantsonfire
Possibly one day when you least expect it you are going to be set up, sold something and arrested while returning across the border Cry3.
("It's on the farang with the Canadian passport. Don't forget to pay our reward , Khun Officer.")
Just a thought...

I would venture to say that shopping on the Thai side of the border is your safest and best bet.
Have you tried going to a pharmacy for your 'whiskey dick' ?
After you'll be able to tap all the ass you require without looking over your shoulder Think1 (JMHO).
Just make sure you're not walking around with a 'long john' for four hours unless you are on a drilling expedition with multiple wells Jump_Drool

Shopping on the Thai side is far from safe,

A year or so back a Falang bought 3 cartons of cigs from a tout.

He was followed and eventually stopped at PKC traffic lights.

Fined 28k and fags confiscated.

Sorry if I didn't spell it out perfectly for you Think1
I didn't recommend buying anything from a 'tout' (= pantsonfire)on any side of the border.

My statement was for this member to do the shopping on Thai side and in particular for his pharmaceutical requirements was to visit a pharmacy Think1 10of10Score

It is not so easy to obtain the required specific pharmaceutical products from a Thai pharmacy. Even in Pattaya you have to be known..
