Thanks to Peanutz, I understand there are Khon mask makers in this area, but I cannot find where it is in Bangkok. Google or Yahoo Map cannot show this address. Can you help me again?

Thanks!

Not tourist souvenirs, real masks for Khon masked dance/play. Thanks in advance.

I will visit Koh Chang in mid November and am wondering where should I book a hotel, on Kai Bae Beach or White Sand? I like quiet and peaceful beach (no jet ski or noisy boats) with facilities like Pattaya (beach parasols and chair, food vendors). Can you recommend? Any travel tips about their beach? Thanks.

After a meeting in Hong Kong, I will fly to Lyon, France via Osaka Kansai and CDG Paris. I was told by Air France that I have to go through the passport controll at CDG and proceed to transit lounge but my baggage will be checked all the way through Lyon and Paris-Lyon flight is domestic so I do not have to go through customs. I think it's weird. Is it true? If so any contrabands can be easily brought into France this way.

I usually book through asiarooms com for sea hotels but for Malaysian hotesl (of course Malaysia is in sea), which booking site do you recommend? Thanks in advance.

I am looking for DVDs of Apichatpong Weerasethakul's films. So far I could find only one, "Tropical Malady". Are there any shops in Bangkok I can buy his other works like "Syndromes and a Century", "Blissfully Yours", "Mysterious Object at Noon", etc? Thanks in advance.

We will stay one night in Osaka to catch my flight from Kansai airport. Instead of staying in Osaka, is there any good Ryokan with Onsen nearby? If so, how can I get there and airport? Also any idea how much will it be? Thanks for your help.

I heard Int'l Art Festival is now on in Bangkok but I cannot get any information. (their site is not yet working). Please tell me where in Bangkok and when. If I find some work very attractive, can I buy it during the festival?

I am visiting Malaysia first time for a holiday. Could you suggest a good hotel or two which has local(Malaysian) deco and ambience, located not in the business district. My budget is about USD150 per night. Please avoid Westin, Sheraton, Hilton, Four Season, or any other US chains as I really want to appreciate localness. Thanks in advance.
