Chiang Mai - Softpower DTV

Applied DTV soft power via a language school in Chiang Mai (cultural).

Looks like it might get rejected.. received a reply from London embassy as follows:

"Thai Language or Culture learning class is not included in DTV soft power . Kindly ask school to provide the License for Establishing a Non-Formal Private School permitted Thai cooking class issued by Provincial Education Office, relevant Thai Authority"

I don't actually mind doing a cooking course. Should I apply to a cooking school under same application? Thinking otherwise will lose my application fee.

Any recommendations for cooking school or other suggestions in CM area?
