Schools by noisy airport to get free air-con units

Airports of Thailand (AoT) will install air-conditioners next week in 54 classrooms in schools near Suvarnabhumi airport to ease aircraft noise impact on students.

I suspect that basically came down to the law of supply and demand.

If there are a lot of falangs available - or perceived to be available - the teacher can not negotiate terms and conditions. They are written in stone.

In the school I'm at - I haven't seen or heard an air conditioner in operation anyplace. Haven't found out where the director's office is yet - but that would probably be the only place that there is one.
