seems they have been finding a few devices around HH. It's really an odd location to hit with bombs. I mean if you wanted maximum impact then Pattaya or Sukhumvit would be the places to hit.

They are thinking long time and so should we be and that is not nuke em.

Freedom of speech is a no no in Thailand and I cannot speak. Nuke em, nuke yourself. Fine, but what did that solve?

Indeed. But most tourists don't go to Pattaya or Sukhumvit.

Using BTS and BRT here in Bangkok I'm used to 'security personel' wanting to have a look in my backpack. Always generates a nice 'BEEP' in the handheld scanner. I wonder if I should remove the screwdrivers and the Dutch Army knife

They actually looked in my bag today rather than just waving the magic torch vaguely in it's direction. Clearly security has been stepped up.
