We will have Thai Lunch Buffett in a Local Restaurant. After we will visit the Death Railway. Estimates vary but, of more than 60,000 prisoners of war enslaved on the Death Railway, 13,000 are believed to have died, in addition to as many as 90,000 southeast Asian civilian forced laborer's. Even those who overcame the odds had to endure abysmal living and working conditions, including a humid, monsoon-plagued climate ripe for spreading diseases, food shortages, an absence of medical care, and the mammoth task of construction on unforgiveable terrain and with primitive equipment. That’s not to mention the incredible violence and torture inflicted by the Japanese and Korean soldiers supervising the construction. The Death Railway was completed in October 1943.
