… But.. but.. the whole purpose of a zip code is to identify a region so that mail delivery is more efficient. What would be the point taking it with me? If I move from Khon Kaen to Kalasin and take my zip code, I might as well not have one.
Am I missing something?
That’s exactly what I thought too. How the heck will my mail find me if I have a Bangkok zip code, but I move to Tak? Obviously they won’t be using the zip code to find me anymore which will make it extraneous won’t it?
So, I won’t be getting my mail on time anymore (or at all maybe?), but I’ll have a prestigious zip code to show off
Who the heck shows off their zip code anyway? I know I’m not bringing my mail into work and showing all my co-workers my super duper zip code.
I must confess that this is the first time I heard about this even though I’m a Thai living in Thailand. (Y’sure this is not an April Fool prank?? Hehe.) But then, look who’s our PM — and MP’s — and you’ll wonder no more!!
