07:18and when people start using boats they were using it just for transportation or they start to sell stuff immediately
07:23like in the past
07:25like in the past um here this canal they were deep because uh we need the shortcut from
07:40mechlong river to tajin river which is about like maybe 32 kilometer long so the canal were deep in order to link between mechlong and the river
07:51between mechlong and tajin river
07:55so this is basically connection between two rivers
07:58yeah for people to have easier travel
08:03like not that way

08:14like people who travel they must be hungry right
08:16so they have like a business on the boat
08:19like selling food to people who travel by boat like in the past
08:23and also like thailand we have a lot of river
08:27and people live by river
08:29apart from being a place where you can grab some gifts
08:33the market offers you a glimpse into the lives of vendors who live close to the river
08:37close to the river
08:38into the river
08:39and people live by river
08:40and people feel like they're going to have to be hungry right
08:41and you can grab some food
08:43then they're going to have a little bit of water
