After I arrived in Butturworth,I looked for a bus for Hat Yai. There was a shared taxi,I decided to get on it. The bus station has restaurants on the 2nd floor,supermarket on the 3rd floor. Foods and cloths,electric appliances were sold there.
2 hours After I left Butterworth,I got to the boundary.
First we took proceeding for depature at Malaysia's side.
Passengers got off and went to the office for procedue.
Again we got on the car,a couple of minutes later we arrived at Thailand's side.
This time the driver kept passenger's passports,and only he went to the Immigration
office. Passing the boundary was easier than I expected,it lost momentum.
It pasted 18:00 because of time difference,when I arrived in Hat Yai.
Next morning I went to a bus station by a bike taxi.
I looked for a bus for Surat Thani. The bus leaves at 7:00 and arrives
there about 6 hours later. National road, ruote 4,was underconstruction of
extention work. It'll become large-scale freeway if the work is finished,
and the roadsides could develop more?
Surat Thani is the gateway of Ko Samui.
I transfered to another bus for Ranong.
The bus was 14-seat mini bus,it ran through undeveloped area for about 3 and
half hours.
The road was well maintained,undeveloped nature was very impressive.
