More Bombs
[b]Bombs in the Word Trade Center at Midnight.[/b]
We got a warning by the police to ask our guests not to go out. I thought all that is rumor, as usual in Thailand.
I did not post it here.
I don't know what to say, I feel like shit.

And there goes the high season. It doesn't take much to get the tourists to stay away.
It will be interesting to see if my company makes me change my travel plans. I am just hoping that they do not declare Bangkok off limits for a while. It was close with the coup, but bombs are even worse.
Personally I think the right reponse is to just go right on with all travel to Thailand. Why give the terrorists what they want?
I also guess this will really make the Thai stock market take an ever bigger dive.
-
Shit, two more bombs at Central World. This is really pissing me off. I hope they track these guys down and give them a couple of new assholes.
I really fear the Bangkok we all knew and loved is likely to disappear for a while, if not forever.
From the Nation site:
Two more bombs exploded in the heart of Bangkok once the new year started, severely injuring many foreign tourists and some Thais.
The two bombs exploded nearly at the same time seconds after the new year started.
The first bomb exploded at the Best Sea Foods restaurant on the Saen Saeb Canal near the Pratunam Pier just seconds after the New Year countdown ended.
Three foreigners and two Thais were injured. One of the foreigners had one leg amputated by the blast. The foreign tourists were having dinner at the restaurant.
Police said the bomb was hidden in a tire at the pier.
The second bomb exploded at a public telephone booth at the pedestrian flyover linking Central World and Kesorn Plaza. Several foreigners were injured and rushed to hospitals.
A suspected bomb was located at the Buddy Bar on Khao Sarn Road about half an hour after midnight and tourists were evacuated from the area.
By 1 am, police also disposed another bomb at the Lumpini Night Bazaar before it explodes.
-
Well the bombs won't change my mind about going to Bangkok but I can see where a lot of people would shy off for a while. It has been an interesting year for Thailand I hope 2007 is a lot better.
Crap Shoot - Nice to know someone else used the "5 nights in Bangkok" post. I took a copy last time and tried most of the things on it with good results. Maybe I will try the ones I missed when I am there next.
Happy and Safe New Years to all

Terror alerts
Giotto,
I don't think anyone can tell you how to run your business and I am sorry that you feel shit, but if I was a guest in your hotel I would appreciate getting that kind of info - I would not go out.
Three years ago based on security alerts I did not go on a diving trip to the Sinai and instead came to LOS. ( Definitely not a bad thing). Bottom line is I missed the bombings in Sinai.
When I hear about terror alerts I listen to them. Call me paranoid or taking things to heart but I have spent to many years working in terror infested areas not to take terror alerts seriously. And as shit happens one can not tell whats going to happen where but something can be said for being well informed.
If it helps I will hopefully be in LOS in 3 months and will definitely spend part of if not all of my vac at Livingstones. ( If there is room )
I do hope that you have a great New Year with your wife.

More Bombs

Two more bombs explode at Central World, Pratunam
Two more bombs exploded in the heart of Bangkok once the new year started, severely injuring many foreign tourists and some Thais.
The two bombs exploded nearly at the same time seconds after the new year started.
The first bomb exploded at the Best Sea Foods restaurant on the Saen Saeb Canal near the Pratunam Pier just seconds after the New Year countdown ended.
Three foreigners and two Thais were injured. One of the foreigners had one leg amputated by the blast. The foreign tourists were having dinner at the restaurant.
Police said the bomb was hidden in a bumper tire at the pier.
The second bomb exploded at a public telephone booth at the pedestrian flyover linking Central World and Kesorn Plaza. Several foreigners were injured and rushed to hospitals.
It was fortunately that the New Year countdown event at Central World was earlier cancelled by 8 pm and thousands of revellers had already dispersed but many were still wandering around.
Police had to ask tourists and revellers to try to leave the area as soon as possible for fear that there could be another bomb.
Police said the bomb near Central World might be planted shortly before it exploded as police earlier checked the area but did not find it.
There were rumours of bomb explosions in many areas throughout the night and objects suspected to be bombs were sighted in several areas.
A suspected bomb was located at the Buddy Bar on Khao Sarn Road about half an hour after midnight and tourists were evacuated from the area.
By 1 am, police also disposed another bomb at the Lumpini Night Bazaar before it explodes.

Giotto,
How is it out there? You think more bombings are coming? I'm still looking forward to coming on the 11th unless things gets real bad out there.

Travel warnings for foreigners
(Compiled by BangkokPost.com)
Australia has issued a new travel warning for nationals travelling to Thailand in the wake of New Year's Eve bombings in Bangkok which killed two people and injured at least 30 others.
The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade has urged Australians to reconsider travelling to Bangkok.
"There is a possibility of further attacks in coming days," the department said. "Australians are urged to avoid unnecessary travel in Bangkok."
The British Foreign Office urged citizens already in Thailand to stay off the streets on New Year's.
The FCO, as the office is known, has changed its travel advice for the country, recommending Britons do not travel about in Bangkok "unless absolutely necessary".
Embassy officials have also set up two emergency phone numbers for anyone concerned about relatives who are currently in the Thai capital.
The FCO already had warned that there was a "high threat" of terrorism in Thailand, adding that attacks "could be indiscriminate and against places frequented by foreigners."
The two emergency numbers for anyone concerned about British relatives in Bangkok are (local numbers in the United Kingdom) 0066 2305 8253 or 0066 2305 8229.
On New Year's Eve, there were shows of bravado in downtown Bangkok. "No, I'm not scared. I'm from England. There are bomb scares all the time," said Keith Waters, who was with his Thai bride to celebrate the New Year.
The Canadian Department of Foreign Affairs issued an official warning advising Canadians against non-essential travel to Bangkok. It updated the travel report section of its website for Thailand.
“Canadians currently in Bangkok should maintain a high level of personal security awareness at all times and avoid unnecessary travel. They should avoid crowds and highly congested areas where demonstrations or violent disturbances could occur, monitor local news reports and follow the advice of local authorities,” reads the travel warning.

[QUOTE=Buzz00]Giotto,
I don't think anyone can tell you how to run your business and I am sorry that you feel shit, but if I was a guest in your hotel I would appreciate getting that kind of info - I would not go out.
...[/QUOTE]Buzz00,
Just to avoid misunderstandings: All our hotel guests which were still in the hotel got the message - of course. We recommended not to go out last night. I only did not post it here in the forum.
The information came from a phonecall with our friends in brown. We called them to get information about their knowledge about the situation in the city.
They told us that they had received a warning that there might be more attacks later in the night.
I did not post that here in the forum, but our hotel guests were informed.
There were so many rumors again last night - but up to now we still don't know who is really behind the bomb attacks.

Local bombings'
The new year eve attack was perpetrated by a jealous ISG member, in anticipation of pipeman's upcoming trip....merely a small welcome for him :D
On a serious note - many of us know that any bloodshed in Thailand does not occur when a coup occurs, but rather some time after the coup. No one knows for sure whether it's Mr. Thak or his cronies, or unrelated.....but the truth will come out soon, it always does.
In the meantime, keep a low profile, exercise usual caution and enjoy LOS. I wish I was there for the new year's party...belated happy new years to all.

Bombings
As you all know we have contacts to the local police as well as to many embassies and the United Nations offices here in Bangkok, via the customers of our Restaurant and Sports Lounge.
And during the past few days the bombings were of course the mainly discussed issue everywhere.
The Rumors:
[b]More attacks are expected within this week. Avoid especially skytrain stations / the skytrain in general.[/b]
The bombs were small, mainly constructed to create a huge sound effect, but not to cause too much damage.
If the assumption is correct that those who lost power after the military coup of the 19th September are behind all that those people want to show that this government is vulnerable, weak and cannot assure the security in Bangkok. And the economy / tourism shall be hurt, to motivate Thai people to ask the old goverment back into office to stabilize the country and the economy.
[b]If that is so[/b] a second series of bomb attacks might follow to prove the vulnerability of the actual government.
Happy New Year.

[QUOTE=Giotto]Sir,
After reading this specific report sequence I ask myself whether your "appointment" as Head of Livingstone's TQM department is justified - under this given Indian "circumstances" :) ...
Can you please publish a picture of your tool in action - we will then ask Moebius to comment on that.
Thank you.

This Indian went to the Livingstone's Bar Saturday Night Party and to his surprise there was a 'big' horse (pun intended) tied to the bar rail. All the hostesses were milling about him. So the Indian asked the Duck what was going on.
"We have big contest. Make horse laugh you get 10,000 Baht. Horse not laugh, you pay 1,000 Baht bar fine."
So the Sir Duniawala goes to the horse and whispers something to the horse. The horse suddenly starts laughing hard. The Marketing Director has no choice and Sir D. walks out with 10,000 B.
Two months later, the Bestard walks in to another Saturday Night party and sees the same thing. A horse in the Livingstone's Lounge/Bar. This time the Duck says "make horse cry and you nake 20,000 B. So he walks up to the horse and after a few minutes he starts crying hard. Surprised the marketing Director throws his hand up and giving him the 20 Grand, asks for the secret of his success.
Well, the first time I told the horse, mine's bigger than yours. And the scond time I showed him. :D
Happy New Year and a Prosperous 2007 to all.

[QUOTE=Traveler1234]The new year eve attack was perpetrated by a jealous ISG member, in anticipation of pipeman's upcoming trip....merely a small welcome for him :D[/QUOTE]T1234 - that jealous ISG member needn't worry - this pipeman almost cancelled his trip due to killer flu. I made it here fully drugged and semi-conscious. Foremost on my mind was an upcoming wrestle with my pillow!
I dined poolside tonight with Giotto, Guido and a new member - Sexwithsmile - who's enjoying several weeks of fun in BKK and other exotic places. Lucky bestard. Nice of my ex-wife Fon to come over and say hi. I enjoyed the a couple of Livingstones special Irish coffees. Feeling better already!
Fon walked past several times, and each time, Giotto watched me out of the corner of his eye with a grin. Evil bestard. Fon is a slow sensual mover, so she may be just what the doctor ordered.
I'm staying in one of the new rooms - very nice. Only problem is that Giotto's room is next door, so I'll have to behave myself.

you look usually already much older than me. And I look damned old in the moment. Today - after your flue - you look very very very old.
Fon likes young men!
I find it my duty as ISG member to be in the room next to you - and report tomorrow in details :) !
