Is there a border bounce service in Hat Yai? I heard padang besar requires you to stay 3 nights in Malysia,so i think of going to Satun. Does anyone know about the current situation there?

If you're going that far you might as well make a trip out of it and spend a couple of nights in Malaysia. Anyway, isn't the rule supposed to be you spend 1 night away? Why is it 3 nights?

no, but you can easily avoid it if you offer 1300b at the wang kelian border. Can be higher at padang besar but with 1500 or 2000 should give you a smooth experience
