Play
Ubon Ratchathani Governor Prateep Kiratirekha held a meeting with district chiefs in his province Friday to instruct them to tightly control the firing of bungfai or traditional homemade bamboo rockets of northeastern people.
The district chiefs were told to ensure that each community would not fire the bungfai outside the permitted time from 9 am to 5 pm. Each large community will be allowed to celebrate the bungfai firing tradition no more than two days during April 18 to May 17 and the communities must seek permission 15 days in advance.
