Bangkok Trader Magazine – Publication Information Magazine – Lifestyle Circulation – 10,000 copies Distribution – Bangkok & the Eastern Seaboard Target – Expatriates & middle/upper-income Thai nationals Bangkok Trader Magazine - January 2013 Overview Launched in November 2006, Bangkok Trader is the most recognizable, free monthly tabloid distributed in Bangkok. With a print run of 10,000 copies,the magazine features in-depth content on lifestyle, food, and travel in Bangkok and around Thailand and Southeast Asia. It utilizes a well-coordinated distribution network that places and maintains supplies of the tabloid throughout areas of central Bangkok that have high footfalls of expats and middle- to upper-income Thai nationals. The distribution points include all Villa Market grocery stores; higher-end pubs, bars, and restaurants; and international hospitals, and are outfitted with recognizable free-standing, custom-made Bangkok Trader magazine stands. Readership The Bangkok Trader readership is predominantly made up of patrons of Villa Market stores, which have,for many years now, catered to middle to upper-income expatriate & Thai families. Almost three-quarters of the distribution is taken monthly by shoppers at Villa Market’s stores, all of which are located within or close to enclaves of higher end to luxury living areas in and around Bangkok’s central business district and entertainment zones. The remaining 25% is distributed in locations where these groups drink and dine and spend some of their free time socializing with friends and business colleagues, generally European and American-themed pubs, bars, and restaurants. In addition, we supply some of the international hospitals with copies for patients and family to read in waiting areas. With a total of 10,000 copies distributed a month and a ‘pass on’ rate estimated to be between 3 to 5 times per copy on average, the total readership of the circulation has been determined to be between 25,000 to 40,000 per month.

A Land of
Beer and Fried Tea
By Reid Nixon
S
un dapples stab randomly through fields of luscious fruits, hardy
vegetables, golden grains, and verdant fields of tea, making for
a slow, sleepy day that lulls you into looking around furtively for
a hammock that you know just has to be strung up somewhere
nearby. It is seriously time for a nap.
But then a pack of dripping, dirty, grunting mountain bikers whip by to re-
mind you that this isn’t all just about you taking it easy. If one is so inclined,
you’re gonna sweat hard, and you’re gonna love it.
Yes, while it sounds as if we might be in Europe or Australia, we are still quite
in Thailand, just outside of Chiang Rai as a matter of fact, at the latest tour-
ism venture brought to you by a beverage heavyweight. This is Boon Rawd
Farm, developed by Singha Beer. Taking a cue from Thailand’s wine valley in
Khao Yai and Asiatique the Riverfront from the Chang Beer magnate, Singha
has created an 8,000+ rai eco-centric expanse with two speeds, depending
on your mood.
There’s ‘slow’ for those that want to ride around in one of those cute trams
that you might see at some Disney park, with a pre-recorded audio tour (in
Thai only) over loudspeakers and stops along at various crops of fruits, such
as strawberries, star fruit, jujubes (like a date), and others; vegetables, includ-
ing corn; and grains like the always ubiquitous rice and barley to experi-
ment with for brewing. Then there are the sunflowers, other colorful flowers,
and oolong tea. Photo opportunities abound.

4. 4 bangkok trader JANUARY 2013
While these are interesting enough (the farm is a self-sustaining venture
for the farmers that tend the various plantings), it’s the tea that stands out
as a highlight viewing, with groups of women in big hats almost lost in the
tall plants as they pick just the top few leaves of each stalk, and they laugh
playfully as tourists snap away. Not far from these fields is a large processing
building that dries out and processes 400 tons a year of leaves in a com-
plicated, fascinating method (one could almost say ‘enhanced interroga-
tion’ techniques performed on tea leaves) sending them along their way
towards bagging, selling both on-site and exported within-country and out,
drinking, and eating.
Wait, eating tea? More on that later. Now let’s talk about the ‘fast’ setting.
As biking enthusiasts know, it can be a love/hate affair to pedal in Thailand.
Certainly, Bangkok won’t be making Top 10 lists for cycling any time soon,
and most riders get itchy waiting for a chance on the weekend to get out of
the city and actually do real quality time on their bikes. The Singha folks had
these people in mind in developing Boon Rawd Farm, carving out kilome-
ters of trails that zigzag through all the various produce to be harvested. A
lot of sharp curves along dirt roads through the fields, many hills to power
up and to plummet down, bamboo thickets, wooden bridges over water
reservoirs (which are occasionally used to help drought-stricken farm-
ers beyond Boon Rawd Farm) – all of these make for good times for those
looking to bring their bikes to just go and go and go for a whole day, and
still sharing the same scenery that most were content with taking in just at
setting #1.
But whatever speed you choose, everyone seems to converge upon what is
probably the most enjoyable (and the busiest) feature of Boon Rawd Farm,
which is a nicely built, large open-air restaurant perched on top of a hill with
one side looking out over one of the serene lakes and rows of the oolong
tea crops in the background, while the other side gives a grand view of a
large and tranquil valley with other smooth hills to frame what is yet an-
other photo point. Some nice outdoor furniture waits conveniently nearby
the restaurant to plonk down and just chill.

But it’s the restaurant, not the comfy furniture, that gets the real attention
around here. The food, a hodgepodge of Northern cuisine and from other
Thai regions, is light and delectable. And now this is where the ‘eating’ of
tea makes it’s returns to our story. Turns out that oolong tea is an excellent
snack, battered and fried, served along with cashew nuts, and having a sim-
ilar sensory experience as eating potato chips (crisps) but with a slightly
sweet aftertaste. Truly a unique, natural, and nice alternative to Lays.
And of course, seeing as this vast tourist destination is brought to you by
the largest brewery in Thailand, there is the beer – and plenty of it! – on
tap with just two choices, Singha and Leo – and there are some delicious
fruit juices available too, including some tasty passion fruit and mulberry
options. There is no rush here (even if you have chosen setting #2), so large
families, gangs of cyclists, old and young, all seem to take a long and unhur-
ried time just grazing and quaffing while gazing out at the nature below.
The farm is definitely new and definitely a work-in-progress in building
up to be a fullly commited tourist destination. As of now, there aren’t any
overnight accommodations, as there are at Farm Chokchai in Khao Yai, but
that’s in the cards some time the next year or two. Only last month marked
the debut of an annual bicycle and farm festival (replete with a farmers’
market and a night-time BBQ on hay bales, as well as a concert of some
famous Thai singers and bands). Tent camping facilities, including toilets,
were provided for a lot of cyclists, and Boon Rawd says that they are finish-
ing up right now to provide permanent facilities for tent camping.
But getting out to the farm isn’t difficult, as it’s only about a 20-minute car
or van ride if staying in Chiang Rai town, and there are decent accommo-
dations at various price points, ranging from guesthouse to boutique and
high-end hotels. Chiang Rai isn’t on the train routes, but does have a small
airport serviced by flights from a handful of carriers. There isn’t a whole lot
to see in the city proper, with the exception of a very picturesque – and
bizarre – all-white temple, but there are definitely things to do outside of
the town in all directions. Rental cars or motorcycles are readily available, A penultimate note: For the ‘fast’-ers, I could say that it’ll be a full day or

Ethiopian Treats
By Dave Stamboulis
I
first encountered Ethiopian food on a visit to its homeland some ten When I first moved to Bangkok, there were a couple of Ethiopian restaurants
years ago. In a land famed for having never been colonized (Africa’s where I could get my fix of injera bread and wot curries, but shortly after I
Thailand!) and with its own completely unrelated and unique lan- settled in here, they closed down. While Bangkok has an incredible array of
guage, writing, and religion, the food was just as distinctive, unlike cuisine, ranging from Japanese to Nepalese to Italian, there wasn’t any Ethi-
anything I had ever eaten anywhere in the world before. I soon put it opian to make things perfect. However, the recent reopening of Habesha
up there with Thai and Japanese as one of the planet’s most delectable has changed all that, and now one can add this outstanding dining experi-
cuisines. ence to a night out on the town.

11. bangkok trader JANUARY 2013 11
Here in Bangkok, all of this wonderful tradition is avail-
able at Habesha, a cozy Ethiopian café and bar situated on
Sukhumvit 3, just up the street from the Nana Square shop-
ping center and on the same side of the street as Bumrun-
grad Hospital, past the tiny sub-soi full of African bars. The
food at Habesha is about as close to the real deal as you will
find, and the helpful staff and owners will go out of their
way to explain the various dishes… and about Ethiopian
food to you, in general. Habesha also does coffee ceremo-
nies or will just make a single cup of delicious Ethiopian joe
for your tasting.
If you really want to look as if you’re in the know, see if you

honey mead wine popular in Ethiopia – sweet, flavorful,

For those unfamiliar with it, Ethiopian food is, well, pretty much unlike any
other cuisine out there. First off, there are neither plates nor cutlery in Ethio-
pian cooking and dining. Spiced vegetables, pulses, and meat are served
as curries known as wot, and are doled out on top of injera, a fermented
flatbread made from a grain called teff, which grows only in the highlands
of Ethiopia. The teff is fermented like sourdough, and after some days, the
flour is rolled out like a large pancake and baked. Despite many jokes about
it, such as that it resembles the rubber mat on the floor of a car, injera has
a spongy texture and is slightly sour, making it somewhat of an acquired
taste. But it isn’t strong and is the perfect medium for soaking up the cur-
ries that go on top of it. Ethiopians tear off the injera (the plate) as they go,
scooping up the meats and veggies with their fingers, so no spoons or forks
are needed either.
The Ethiopian curries are made with lots of berbere, a combo of spices that
include chilies, garlic, ginger, dried basil, korarima (a wild Ethiopian spice)
and several others, giving them a bit of heat, but nowhere near at the levels
of Thai or, say, Mexican. Chicken, beef, and lamb are all used in abundance, as
are lentils and split peas, along with chard, potatoes, and other vegetables.
While major religious holidays and an entire month of Lent are celebrated
with no meat available in the country, this isn’t too much of an issue since
the ‘fasting food,’ as it is known, is wonderfully delicious, and I am often at
odds when I eat Ethiopian as to whether or not I want to eat only the veg-
etable curries or have the red chili-based chicken or other meats. One un-

bugs and disease, but it is one of my personal favorites, and I’ve never suf-
fered any maladies from partaking. Properties for Rent.
Just as wonderful as the food in Ethiopia is the coffee. Some of the best
brew in the world is grown in the highlands, and in addition to already hav-
ing the beans, the Italian occupation in World War II left the Ethiopians with
the art of brewing, and doppiato and macchiato shops are still found on
every corner of the capital Addis. Even better is the traditional coffee cer-
emony, which is a norm when guests visit someone’s home (and now done
in Ethiopian restaurants around the world). First the beans are roasted in an
open pan and the aromatic smoke wafted around for everyone to inhale.
Then the beans are pulverized in a mortar and pestle and boiled in a spe-
cial urn called a jebena before being served, usually with sugar, strong and
sweet like a Turkish or Greek coffee. www.bangkokfinder.com

Photos by Regin Reyno Obama’s historical visit to Myanmar has positively raised Myanmar’s profile
in the eyes of the international community.
But Myanmar still has a long way to go before its people are really free
and maybe even longer before the leaders of the former military junta are
brought to justice for the atrocities they have committed against their own
people and the minority groups they have embattled for decades. One of
these groups, the Karen, has been in conflict with the Burmese govern-
ment since 1942 and aimed for an independent state until 1976, when its
demands changed to requesting greater autonomy under a federal system
of government.
However, their dream remains that one day, Kawthoolei, their traditional
homeland (corresponding to present-day Kayin State, a mountainous area
in the east of Myanmar, on the border with Thailand’s Mae Hong Son, Tak,
and Kanchanaburi provinces), will be given the right to self-determination.
‘Kawthoolei’ literally means ‘the land without evil,’ and in his book, Evil in the
Land Without, Colin Cotterill plays with that meaning in the hope of raising
public awareness to the evil the Karen have suffered at the hands of a ruth-
less Burmese army.
For decades, the Burmese waged a war of terror and intimidation on the
civilian Karen population, raping, pillaging, and burning their villages in the
hope of discouraging the Karen fighters. The scenes in Sylvester Stallone’s
last installment of Rambo (2008) gave us just a glimpse, even if it was fic-
tional, of what the Karen have had to suffer for so long. With a ‘live for noth-
ing, die for everything’ mentality, the Karen fighters still hope for a chance to
free their seven million people from the chains of the Burmese oppression.

13. bangkok trader JANUARY 2013 13
Colin Cotterill opens Evil in the Land Without (Asia Books, 2003) with a note
left by the Burmese army on the hut of a Karen village: “You are to leave this
place. If you are found here when we return in seven days, you will be con-
sidered enemies of the state and destroyed.” Thus, six-year-old Sherri, her
family, and the rest of the villagers abandon their houses and go in search
of a new home. But they are intercepted by a Burmese patrol and “when the
bloodletting was over, only five villagers remained alive.” Sherri is one of
them. But for her, death would have been a fairer fate.
Fast-forward more than two decades to the year 2000, and the reader is
introduced to John Jessel, an English detective who works for the Child
Protection Unit in Surrey. Overweight and with a serious drinking problem,
Jessel’s mission in life is to rid the world of pedophiles. After bringing down
a ‘pederast ring,’ he is targeted by a mysterious adversary who signs his
threat letters as ‘The Paw.’ Soon enough, the threats become reality, and the
people Jessel cares for most find their end at the hand of a ruthless assassin.
No one around him is safe anymore, and John’s only hope at catching the
murderer is to dig deep in the history of his own family and find the secrets

The Art of
Bathing
By Dave Stamboulis
I
f I learned anything during my tenure in Japan, it was how to take and
appreciate a bath. In a country where people work hard and have little
free time, a good hot soak is a sacred ritual, something to slow down,
appreciate, and share with others. Hot springs and bathhouses abound
in Japan, and while the country is blessed with an abundant supply of hot
mineral water, it is also a culture that has made the bathhouse a place wor-
thy of worship. So it was a bit of wonderful news to my ears when a friend
told me that a Japanese onsen (hot spring) had opened in Bangkok.
Yunomori Onsen, snuggled into the back of the A Square community mall
on Sukhumvit 26, has brought a Japanese institution to Bangkok and even
gone a step further, combining it with the Thai love of massage, thus making
it about as great a method of spending a few free hours getting pampered
as this town has to offer. Smith Mekaroonkamol, the owner of Yunomori, has
gone to great lengths to try to recreate a bit of Japan for the 80,000-odd
Japanese expats calling Bangkok home, as well as for Thais and foreigners
seeking a haven in which to de-stress and relax.
Yunomori pretty much resembles the real deal that you find in the Land of
the Rising Sun, with plenty of bamboo and finished wood surrounding the

large onsen pools. The large bathing areas (separated by gender) contain a
washing area with stools, buckets, toiletries, and showers, as soap and dirt
are not allowed in the public bath, so one cleans off here first. Next to this
are three large pools, a jet whirlpool bath, and another one containing a car-
bonated soda water generator from Japan that mixes soda with the water
and promotes circulation and rejuvenation. This is the ‘cool’ pool at a nice
38ºC, but for the real lovers of hot springing, the best bath is next to this, a
43ºC sizzler with 3,000 liters of hot spring water brought up from the famed
Raksawarin hot springs in Ranong, whose water is extremely clear and with-
out any sulfurous odor. If this gets too hot, there is also a 17º cold pool to
hop into, and there are also some warm teak tubs and another pool out in
the garden to bathe in. To top it all off are a steam room and sauna, insuring
that every pore gets to sweat, clean, and revitalize.
Nudity is the order of the day at Japanese baths, which sometimes surprises
visitors. One is given a pair of towels, large and small, along with a yukata (a
Japanese robe) upon entry to the locker room, but only the small towel is al-
lowed into the bathing area. In a Japanese bath, people are expected to be well-trained therapists offering aromatherapy, reflexology, and traditional

In Japan, a society that is often shrouded in privacy and often painstakingly baht for both (entry to the onsen baths only is 450 baht), it’s an affordably fan-
reserved, there is a belief that relaxing without clothes breaks down barri- tastic way to get pampered. There is also a Japanese izakaya restaurant and
ers, and there is even a term for this in Japanese called hadaka no tsukiai the Gastronome bakery and café on premises, meaning one can spend the
or ‘naked communion.’ There was initially some trepidation at Yunomori that entire day and evening at Yunomori without having to go anywhere else.
Thais would be a bit shy about the bathing etiquette, and for the first few
weeks, the side of the women’s bath gave out disposable underwear to those Sitting in the hot spring bath, enveloped in mist and steam, I listened to two
