Thai PM says "stay alert!"

Impeccable timing on my part. I'm arriving in Bangkok the end of this month. Here are some interesting comments from the Prime Minister. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/thailand_bombing

Here's another article from today, Jan. 5 in the U.S. http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20070105/ts_ ... ombs_dc_13 (http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20070105/ts_nm/thailand_bombs_dc_13) Should I laugh off all these rumors and warnings, or really be concerned? I know that these issues have been brought up in previous threads, but the news continues to evolve.

...they start color-coding the alerts and tell you to buy duct-tape! :geek:

What the hell is going on with this forum? I post some serious information and get one joke and twqo spams for replys. Very sad state of affairs!

Its quiet lately on all the boards.

About 6 months ago i reported a suspicious bag in suriwong ( the bank where u can go inside at night to use ATMS). It was a smallbriefcase type bag tucked down behind the seats and it was around midnight and the area was crowded.

The first policeman i told sent me to the tourist police box - they didnt undertsand me and eventually summoned a plain clothes guy - he finally called somebody on his radio and i took them to the bank and showed them the bag.

Whole thing took almost 30 minutes! Bet its a lot quicker now!
