Suvarnabhumi » New Bangkok Airport’s a smash with Tammy
Sunday, July 20th, 2008
On her first visit to Bangkok’s new Suvarnabhumi Airport, Thai tennis star Tamarine Tanasugarn noticed one thing that really stood out - the place looked like it needed a good clean.
Wherever she looked there was dust. “I want to volunteer as a cleaner,” she said.
On her return from Tashkent a week later, Tamarine saw some dramatic improvements and had a change of mind.
She was overwhelmed with what she saw this new version of Suvarnabhumi turned out to be cleaner, in better order and looked very futuristic.
“The architectural work is so exquisite. It’s a good combination between modern art and Thai culture. My fellow players really think the same - that it is very beautiful,” added Tamarine, who was thrilled by the airport’s structural design, which looks like a lotus petal.
