On Friday, Dec 5th, some of the people in other offices on our floor at work put up Christmas decorations. (I don't know who told them that glow-in-the-dark skeletons are Christmas decorations though.

Must have been leftovers from Halloween.)

They are all Thai and although a minority of Thais are Christian, I'm sure most people in those offices are regular Thai Buddhists.

Maybe they went to Bangkok Catholic schools and are reliving their childhoods. My guess tho is that it is just Thai sanuk-ness and they don't want to miss out on an opportunity to have a bit of fun, bless 'em. I'll ask them on Monday.

Last year they didn't take their Christmas decorations down until about March.
