· KRABI BECKONS
This huge adventure paradise is ready
to fulfill your needs for fun under the sun,
romp in the islands, thrills on the wild side,
peace and tranquility, and more….
Krabi. The very name
conjures images of wonder,
like a mystical frontier
where adventure awaits in
every corner, and where
dreams can happen even
to those who were not expecting them. And
if you ask those who have been lucky to have
been in this destination some 800km southeast
of Bangkok, they’d say not far off from the real
Krabi, really.
The province is in fact, often described as
Thailand’s most beautiful. Indeed some of Asia’s
prettiest seascapes are found here, and with
a postcard beauty that is easy to capture even
when you are least trying. For this is a place
that as one enchanted visitor waxed poetic over
it once, “…like a rich jewel in Ethiop’s ear” –
alluring, stunning, and diverse. Indeed, if – as for
the many of us – going on a holiday is a dream
come true – Krabi is the place to make it a reality. Read more >>

· HEALTH HUB CHIANG MAI
'Rose of The North' Meets
the health care – including
spa -- needs of the regional,
international community
With the current visitors in
Chiang Mai still far from the
desired tourist numbers, both
the public and private sectors
in this destination dubbed as “Rose of the North” have been launching
several campaigns to remind travelers of its
many varied attractions. Last month, a joint
effort dubbed as “Chiang Mai International
Health Promotion Meeting 2010 (CIHPM)”
was launched under the joint auspices of
both the private and public sectors.
With the theme “Experience Natural
Balance with Lanna Culture,” the campaign
hopes to solidify Chiang Mai’s claim as
a medical and health hub, the “Health
Care City," by showcasing the quality and
standard of health services and facilities in
the province as well as to promote healthrelated
services such as spas, hospitals,
massage centers, herbal production, and
local food and nutrition. The two-day event,
held at The Empress Convention Center,
was the third of what has become an annual
event since its inception three years ago. Read more >>

· SIMPLE IS BEST!
For Amari Atrium executive chef Hans Peter
Eduard Aschwanden, simplicity is the key --
in flavor, ingredients, and all.
The test of the pudding
is in the eating, so the
saying goes. If a test is
put at the Amari Atrium
restaurants, those who have eaten
at them will certainly agree – they
are all sure to pass the test.
This is not surprising, once you
meet the hotel’s executive chef,
Hans Peter Eduard Aschwanden,
who handles the hotel’s three in-house restaurants and two
casual pubs. This 53-year-old chef,
a native of Switzerland, pours
his long experience and expertise
from some of the best hotels and
restaurants in the world into the
topnotch culinary offerings that
guests get to enjoy at the hotel –
arguably some of the best meals
you can enjoy in Bangkok. Read more >>
