The Thai police have warned that people might set of bombs and create problems around the New Year. Another high ranking military have said he see no indication on problems in Pattaya, Phuket, or Bangkok as suggested.
It really shows that they have no real idea what is going to happen. Thai people are not for creating problems during the holidays since they like to enjoy them so much.
If they have demonstrations they can even take a break during the holiday and come back afterwards.
The Only major problem we experienced in Bangkok was in 2006 when bombs were set off and created chaos around the World Trade Center in central Bangkok. Nobody has ever been convicted for those bombs and probably nobody ever will be.
Keep them in your minds
But we should not forget the South part of Thailand; people are dying every day from bombs and shootings. Almost one person per day dies in the war that sees no end in the near future. The people living in Bangkok are not really interested on what’s going on in South Thailand.
When we start counting in the New Year send the people in south Thailand a thought and also remember the people died in the fire in Santika.
Happy New Year everybody!
A update the Thai government in Bangkok have now warned that people from the South could come to Bangkok during the New Year and create some kind of problem. Maybe smaller bombs or some other trouble.
