25th October, 2008

Today's weather;

It's cloudy and wet, although it isn't raining right now, it looks wet outside! Current temp at 7 am is just 24.2C. It looks like the rainy season has started at last.

Yesterday was dry during the morning but in the afternoon there was plenty of rain, varying from hard rain to drizzle to dry periods. During the night there was a lot of rain again. Max temp reached 29.5C.

In Bangkok a government=appointed committee is planning to pay compensation of between Bt100,000 and Bt500,000 to the families of victims killed in recent political violence.

In the meantime fears of bloodshed have risen as a pro-government grouping is mapping out an offensive to retake the Government House compound.
The Metropolitan Police are poised to keep the peace today if former deputy police chief General Salang Bunnag leads government supporters to besiege Government House.
