Agenda: Ying Lee Srirumpol is coming to the Netherlands

Once back in the Netherlands I always miss Thailand enormously. I am always aware that I may not have made the most of it, especially the last days of the holiday. It is only when I am on my way to Suvarnabhumi Airport that I often realize that it will be a long time before I am back in Thailand. Sometimes two months, but sometimes more than half a year.

The loss starts right away at Schiphol, where you have to wait at least 27 minutes for your suitcase, unlike Bangkok, where your suitcase is already on the belt or even next to it. The first week is always the hardest, after that you get used to living here again. But still every now and then I search the internet for a Thai party, visit a Thai restaurant or get a Thai massage. This was also the case last weekend, when the first two weeks at home in the Netherlands were over. And then I saw the flyer of the party of March 2016, XNUMX in Event Plaza in Rijswijk, where Ying Lee will perform.

Who is Ying Lee?

Tidarat Srijumpol, better known as Ying Lee, is a Thai Luktong singer who scored a huge hit with the song Kau Jai Tur Lak Bur Toh aka 'Your Heart For My Number'. And every Thailand-goer knows that the party really gets going when this song is played. Everyone knows it in Thailand, and everyone sings along. The clip had been viewed more than 2014 million times on YouTube in 100.

When is Ying Lee coming to the Netherlands?

According to the flyer I came across online, she will come to the Netherlands on Sunday March 27, 2016. The event will take place in Event Plaza at Lange Kleiweg 86 in Rijswijk. Parking is free. The event will run from 17.00:01.00 PM to 2:XNUMX AM. The next day it's XNUMX^e Easter Monday and there is therefore ample opportunity to sleep in. Given the starting time, I assume there will be food, but if I'm sure I'll report it as a comment below. Tickets can be purchased through various telephone numbers. The flyer is not very sharp, but if I look closely I get the following telephone numbers:

• Amsterdam: 0616085575 / 0206209900 / 0650246336
• Nijmegen: 0611865780 / 0653717904 / 0624204716
• The Hague: 0703451908

The number in The Hague did not work for me, but it would be from a Thai massage parlor. Then called that salon, but the phone was not answered there. I have now contacted Nok in Amsterdam (the first number in Amsterdam) and I will pick up the cards there.

It is strange, however, that I cannot find anything online about the organizer of We-Do events. I also couldn't find much on the internet about this event. Ticket sales are going fast, according to Nok, because it seems to be the first real Thai party (for Thais that is) in years.

Is this something for me as a Dutchman (read Farang)?

I have no idea, I've never been to a Thai party in the Netherlands before. But I always have a great time in Pattaya, Phuket and Bangkok, so expect this to be a pleasant evening. If anyone has experience (s) with such parties, please respond. I also do not rule out that a number of men will have to join, so I do not rule out the emergence of a Dutch corner that evening.
