"We will issue a certificate of play to those golfers who fly from all
over the world to play golf there, just like other world famous golf

The proposed site is in Ubon Ratchathanee province's Chong Bok town, 650
km northeast of Bangkok, next to Laos' Champasak province and Cambodia's
Prea Vehear mountain.
The proposed area is littered with landmines. "Yes, the area is
booby-trapped, but it is a piece of cake for the three countries to
solve," Somsak said.
