The Thailand dossier
Not sure what you get? Read the New Zealand dossier or Saint Helena — complete documents, free, no account.
17 of 30 dated closures were read from the instrument itself; the rest come from independent secondary sources or published compilations. Across 7 named sources, and every row says which.
Contents are emitted when the dossier is compiled, so this list and the PDF cannot disagree.

We do not promise a calendar that never changes. Dates move: authorities declare holidays at short notice and publish corrections of their own. Every record here shows what stands behind it, and when a date changes we correct it, publish it, and tell the people it affects.
