Thai Holidays
I love holidays! And apparently, Thais love 'em too! Except that there's no Christmas or Easter...
And everything that falls on a Saturday or Sunday is automatically substituted on a Monday =)
  1. January 1 - New Year
  2. February 23 - Makha Bucha Day
  3. April 6 - Chakri Day
  4. April 13 - Songkran Festival
  5. April 14 - Songkran Festival
  6. April 15 - Songkran Festival
  7. May 1 - Labor Day
  8. May 5 - Coronation Day
  9. May 22 - Wisakha Bucha Day
  10. July 1 - Mid Year's Day (I think this is a weird holiday... no religious or national significance)
  11. July 22 - Buddhist Lent Day
  12. August 12 - Queen's Birthday (this is also their Mother's Day)
  13. October 23 - Chulalongkorn Day
  14. December 5 - King's Birthday (and this is Father's Day)
  15. December 10 - Constitution Day
  16. December 31 - New Year's Eve

There you go... 16 Thai holidays. I'm not sure if I missed out on something. But actually depending on the company, some even have more holidays... like on May 11 is the Royal Ploughing Day. It's not mandatory, but some businesses will be closed. Or Christmas... especially if you have a Caucasian boss... (lucky me, I work for one!)
