Purpose of visit
Just before Ramadhan, I was in Bangkok for 25days visiting family and doing some business errands. When ever I am in Bangkok, I will stay at family homes situated in Min Buri province about 20km to Bangkok city. Min Buri is 90% Muslim population.

Min Buri Province
What I love about Min Buri is that it is a halal food heaven from morning till late night. The night market is amazing and goods sold at reasonable price. We are also spoilt to choose for Halal local cafe and restaurants here in Min Buri. So many Thai delicacy to enjoy from local traditional food to modern halal steak restaurants.
Everything here in Thailand is about presentation even the food in market is nicely pack. And because of many muslim population, the 7Eleven in Min Buri has more variety of halal products to choose.

The shabu-shabu food is served through conveyor system for customer to choose the variety of seafood, vegetables and of course the speciality fresh beef sliced. This shabu restaurant is very popular because of Nida Shabu is the only shabu available in Min Buri area. Per person is 299ThaiBath only and here the Shabu Restaurant received many private functions.
Masjid in Min Buri province
Many masjid here too and mostly the masjid is being built either through the donation from the muslim community here or supported by muslim all over the world such as Malaysia, Brunei and the Middle East.
I did several times join the masjid activity and I noticed there are few family originated from Kedah, Malaysia. Some can even speak Malay language.
The community among the Min Buri muslim is very closed and strong . I saw many activity been conducted to make sure that the muslim here are care about each other well being.
Muslim Charity Event
I even attended some event muslim charity even at the Islamic Center and being launched by the King of Thailand.
It is amazing to see how well connected the muslim here in Bangkok.
