Public officials Thursday continued planning for Naklua’s Songkran water festival next month.
At a Pla Thong Seafood restaurant meeting, Chonburi MP Poramet Ngampichet heard about preparations for the April 18 “wan lai” festival.
He said the water festival was a tradition in Naklua and should be preserved. Official events start with a religious ceremony at Lan Pho Park where alms will be given to monks and water sprinkled gently on them and the elderly. Music, dance and a beauty pageant will follow.
