About 200 taxis left idle by Covid-19 pandemic curbs have been transformed into mini vegetable gardens and frog ponds in the Thai capital Bangkok. Many drivers have left for their home villages since​​ Thailand imposed tough pandemic restrictions, including a curfew, to deal with a deadly spike in coronavirus cases in recent months. Started by a local taxi company, the mini garden project will help feed out-of-work drivers and their families.
