Orientation Day from CRRU. Miss Nok (CRRU’s coordinator) told us to get ready at 08.30. We’re having our breakfast together at the hotel, the receptionist told us which food is contains pork and which food is not (maybe Miss Nok have already tell them that the Indonesian delegates are all moeslim) – even tough we actually doubt because ofcourse they are using the same pan to cook, and we are using the same plate that they use to eat pork. My friends keeps on giving a suggestion like “bismillah aja sebelum makan” so we keep eating the chicken and all kind of food (except those who contains pork) wishing that it is halal for us. I could say that thai food taste are quiet the same with indonesian food, it is also put a lot of spice. I actually loves all the thai fruits (especially here in chiang rai), because its taste soooooooooooooooo fresh.  Hotel Food.  After having our breakfast, Miss Nok pick us up right at 08.30. We are riding something like the hotel-car (i guess)
