Curfew 21 May
« on: May 22, 2014, 09:27:56 PM »
This is from the US Embassy on the current status, curfew in effect: 
 
Seal with white background
U.S. Embassy Bangkok
Emergency Message
Thursday, May 22, 2011
This message is to inform U.S. citizens that the Royal Thai Army has announced it has seized control of the administration of the country effective 4:30 PM on May 22, 2014.  Authorities have announced a countrywide curfew from 10PM to 5AM. U.S. citizens are advised to stay alert, exercise caution, and monitor media coverage.  You are advised to avoid areas where there are protest events, large gatherings, or security operations and follow the instructions of Thai authorities.
U.S. citizens are cautioned that even demonstrations that are meant to be peaceful can turn confrontational and escalate into violence. You should avoid protest sites, demonstrations, and large gatherings. Be alert and aware of your surroundings and pay attention to local news media reports. You should allow extra time when travelling throughout the city or to/from airports. Consider using public transportation.
 
Be at the Bamboo bar at your own risk.   
 
My TW just told me 7-11 gas stations are closing.

Jeeze Ray, from the the shoutbox:

(07:15:53) urleft: BTW, rumor has it there is a nationwide 10 pm curfew, but I haven't been able to verify.


I was trying to verify the rumor.  But you instead of providing sources one way or another you went asshole. 


And I have good reason to go one on one with Nookie.  However, you have been attacking me for months with no good reason.  I have not called you out before, but I am through with your shit. 

Obviously you can't find a personal reason to attack, so you have to brownnose Paul and be and be a typical Brit.  So you want a battle, you got it. 

We are in a volital situation, and rather than trying to find out the facts, you just want to attack me for rumors that I'm am trying to get expats prepared.   

So Ray,  How about providing a link to a news source proving me wrong rather the doing the Nookie thing and spouting dipshit attacks? 

 
From my end, and internet store, not only have we not been cut off.  Our internet is screaming fast, best in month.  And we closed out store an hour ago.   Looks like the rest of the village have closed also. 
 
Now Ray, what real time relevent information can you provide during this Coup event that immidiately affects us Expats?   
 
Give something to helpful.      Asshole.

Thank you for you very insightful comment with references to the on-going curfew and its effects. 


Exactly what I expect from you.

Urleft,I can't believe that immigration major changes,and events now ,plus a lot of other things aren't inter related somehow.Your ex military,you know,he general waited and timed this very well,first control the media,take away the possible problem people,divide and conquer,and he is doing it very well,I've had calls from some bar owners in Hua Hin tonight that I know,all forced to close at 10pm,and that is the Kings territory.

Now Ray, what real time relevent information can you provide during this Coup event that immidiately affects us Expats?   



Over 30 minutes later and all Ray can do is accuse me of having a few.  Guess what Ray?  Yes I have a had a few.  Remember when we met?  It was me buying Magners from you at the Coffee Corner.  And I thanked you for that. 

But why you have a bug up your ass about me is beyond me.   All I can figure is that you are an asshole Brit, which are redundant terms. 

And feel free to reference where I did a personal attack against you first.    I would really like to see that.   So until you provide that attack, STFU.

Wow, BTW, I just saw some pics on facebook with the Police listening the military. 


From an stratigic standpoint, if the military and police are working together, the coup is successful.

Alright guys.  My store has been told to close 3 hours early.  It looks like the curfew is happening. 

Notice the title of the thread is "Curfew"   


So it seems the curfew is happening around Buriram. 


What is happening in Buriam city?  How about Surin?   And other cities (e.g.  Nan Rong).   


And whar roads and cities are open?




Something is going on with this coup, let's work to gether to find out the implications.  My information is 1st hand from my village and at most 2nd hand from Facebook postings.
