Durians now banned from buses in Bangkok
The Bangkok Mass Transit Authority has classified the smell of durians as a public nuisance. That is why, as of this week, passengers are no longer permitted to carry the exotic fruit on its buses. The decision is based on a directive issued by the Transport Ministry in 2014 to ensure peace and order on public transport, the transit authority announced on Wednesday (May 3).
