	Don Muang - Bangkok Airport -
		Bangkok's Don Muang international airport (pronounced as dawn meu-ang, Thai for 'town on the highland') is about 25km north of central Bangkok.
		Don Muang has grown rapidly since being built in the 1920's and now handles 25 million passengers a year, which is way more than originally planned for.
		As a consequence, a new airport is under construction to the east of Bangkok in Samut Prakan province.

		There were to be three phases--from Hualamphong (the main railway depot) to Don Muang Airport, an east-west line from Taling Chan to Huamark, and a spur to the port.
		The Don Muang Tollway was finished first and constructed flyovers for cross streets in such a way as to make it difficult for the Hopewell project to proceed (since large parts of both projects were side by side).
		Since the pillars line the main road to the airport and parallel another completed tollway, they are a constant reminder of schizophrenic planning that came to naught.

		The airport staff, whether working for the airline we used (Thai Air) or the government (customs) were very helpful and never once complained or held out their hands for money.
