- This is why I’m considering cancelling my subscription to the Bangkok Post newspaper. This front page headline & story implies the protesters shut down the rail network in Bangkok. But that was ordered by the government. This bias by them is seen often #ม็อบ18ตุลา #Thailand
- An interesting infographic in today’s Bangkok Post about the sculptures around the Royal Crematorium #คิดถึงพ่อ #KingBhumibol #KingRama9
- Please give a thought tonight to retired Thai Navy SEAL Saman Gunan who tragically died in the lead up to today’s successful rescue of four boys. He would have been so happy to have seen this day. Sir, your sacrifice won’t be forgotten. #ThamLuang #ถ้ำหลวง #Thailand #RIP
- WHAT WE KNOW SO FAR at 7:40pm ✅ First two boys in the hospital in Chiang Rai ✅ 3rd and 4th boys in the field hospital at Tham Luang ✅ 5th and 6th boys have reached the third chamber in the cave #ThamLuang #พาทีมหมูป่ากลับบ้าน #ถ้ำหลวง #Thailand #ThaiCaveRescue
- The unsung heroes of the rescue mission was the team who tirelessly pumped water out of the cave. But now they’ve volunteered to stay behind to pump water out of the flooded farm fields. Total respect from me. #ThamLuang #ถ้ำหลวง #Thailand #ThaiCaveRescue
- Oh wow! I really wasn’t expecting this. I was just watching the latest video by the British Ambassador to Thailand and then he said this......! You can watch the whole video here: facebook.com/16166687054038… #Thailand
00:00 - 7:45pm The riot police have retreated at Urupong Intersection due to another group of protesters coming up to them from behind #ม็อบ21ตุลา #Bangkok #Thailand19.45 น. แนวเจ้าหน้าที่ถอยร่นเพราะมีผู้ชุมนุมส่วนหนึ่งอ้อมมาทางด้านหลังเจ้าหน้าที่ คาดว่าจะไปบรรจบที่รางรถไฟก่อนมุ่งหน้าเข้าสู่ถนนพิษณุโลก #ม็อบ21ตุลา
00:00 - A fascinating infographic in today’s edition of the Bangkok Post about the Royal Processions kingrama9.bangkokpost.com #KingBhumibol #Thailand
- A big thank you to everyone involved in bringing all of the Wild Boars and their coach home. Both divers and support team. It was truly an international effort. Credit: Facebook SISIDEA #ThamLuang #พาทีมหมูป่ากลับบ้าน #ถ้ำหลวง #Thailand #ThaiCaveRescue
- I never really understand why some people complain about a service that I provide for free. It’s not as if I’m getting paid to do it either. If they don’t like it, why not unfollow me? I also don’t understand why some people have so much hate in their heart. But I will continue.
- The time has come for HM King Bhumibol to return to heaven #คิดถึงพ่อ #KingBhumibol #KingRama9 #Thailand
- I can sleep better tonight knowing that all of the boys are safely out. Though they are not yet with their parents, I know they are in safe hands. Thank you for following me over the last few weeks. I’m off to bed now. I have to get up early to go to school. My day job. #Thailand
- Bangkok Immigration came to inspect my workplace. They were here for 3 hours. Looks like they will not extend my “visa”. They said I most likely will have to leave the country. Nothing to do with anything else. They will give me a final verdict next week. Not looking good ☹️☹️
