Mor Kor, Mahawitthayalai Kasetsat, Samut Sakhon 1107. I received in mid-January a letter from Finnish customs stating that a I had got a package from Thailand that must be declared. The letter had arrived at customs in October. Option was to make the customs declaration myself or Finnish Post would make it for me if I paid some 30 €.  I decided to make declaration myself and decided that the package was worth 10 €. Thus I got message that I did not have to pay any customs fee. But Finnish Post office still wanted 2.5 € for their service, but I could get exemption since I did not have to pay customs fee. So I had to fill another online form.  And two weeks later I got a new letter from post office stating that a recommended letter had arrived.  By showing my identity card and signing that I got the envelope it was finally I my hands. The envelope contained one single sheet of paper, a verification letter by Anuporn Suwavajukkasikjij CEO of KU Radio Network. Most welcome QSL, since I’ve been many times at KU and had nice co-operation with their Forestry Department.
