8th October, 2008

Today's weather;

Once more it's a beautiful morning with a blue sky which is laced with white, fluffy clouds. Current temp at 7 am is 25.8C.

Yesterday was hot, the max temp reached 33.2C.

Last night remained calm in Bangkok. Initially the violence continued during the early evening but it was good to find out this morning that it remained calm and quiet in Bangkok overnight. Yesterday 2 people died and around 400 people had to be hospitalised; Policy reading creates a bloody mess and a vigilant PAD is ready to fight on. The latest article mentions that hundreds of protesters from the South arrived and filled the ranks, yesterday three buses left from Samui to join the demonstrators.

Let's hope that cooler heads will prevail now and this can be solved by talking rather than violence, by either side.
