It’s simple its in Malaysia....every Consulate/Embassy of every country around the world gets not only their govt holidays off but also the host countries govt holidays off....

Genuine question. Thailand is Buddhist. Malaysia is Islamic. I doubt Thai immigration will be closed in country or on external borders with Cambodia or Laos. Also, you are rude and can't spell.
