The centre will be dedicated to providing help, support and health treatment for the city's trans community.

The Thai Red Cross Aids Research Centre has opened the first ever trans-specific operation in Asia.

The Tangerine Community Health Centre says it will strive "to be a model for quality health services and research for the transgender community."

This article says "Thai law currently allows trans people to change their legal gender", but I thought they couldn't change their gender on government issue id cards. I thought that was a major factor in discrimination as it always outs them when trying to get a job. Has that changed?
