I totally agree with you.
Thai protest (I dont call riot) is just station at 1 spot. Didnt spread to biz, shopping and tourist area.

Just back from bangkok for the 4d3n holidays... ita all safe and peaceful. even more peace than Malaysia though was declared a state of emergency.

went there last weekend and back here last tuesday. if i hvt read the newspaper, i would not know there is a political unstable! i was walking alone late nite back to hotel (its far inside from the main road) n i don worry at all! if i walk in Malaysia late nite, even though just beside main road, i will worry whether got ppl rob me o not!!!!!!!!!!!!

tourists shop as usual n all places so crowded! there is no sign of tension o political unstable. i passed by the government building when i was on my way to the marble temple (which is nearby government house) and lucky buddha temple. all i saw is their camp and tats all. police was taking care of the traffic n they never attack any tourist o ppl passing by.

on the other hand, security checking was set up at the entrance to shopping malls and skytrain / BTS station. i was worried at the 1st place before i departed, however, i have no regret to travel to bangkok!!!!

we'll be staying at Baiyoke Boutique Hotel. it's within walking distance to Platinum Mall & Pratunam Market.
coll who stayed there b4 has no complaints.
the link is here
if u do not have tight budget, can consider staying at Baiyoke Sky Hotel instead, it's the tallest hotel in bkk.

hotel guest can also enjoy 50% off for hotel buffet located at 76th & 78th floor. smile.gif

yes. very sure. someone told me not to visit grand palace as well. but when i reached there, its full of tourists. grand palace is a bit far from the government house. i visited bangkok when they declared a state of emergency n ur trip is still far away. so no need worry at all.

protest is very normal for thai ppl. nothing much. sweat.gif
