Media provocation
I heard a lot that tourists are afraid to go to Thailand, but I did not know why. Today I tuned the satellite to one of the Russian channels, listened to what they were saying about Thailand and had an epiphany.
WHAT A MONSTER PROVOCATION!!! WHAT A LIE!!!
State of emergency in Pattaya. Has your media gone crazy??? Yes, there are problems only on one street in Bangkok (Ratchaprasong street) and nowhere else, and in Pattaya there are not even miniatures, not a single person. Why does the media lie to you so much? Who benefits from this???

no, there are problems, but only in some areas of bangkok. And there are corpses. And in Russia they are not? Watch TV. They even lie about themselves. They lie about Thailand, they lie about Ukraine, they lie about Georgia, brazenly and monstrously.
And I have been living here for a long time, I have my own tour operator in Thailand and here I manage the host. Go to my website and see for yourself. Profile info if you're interested.

Amir, hello! We also want to fly to Thailand in early June, but our parents dissuade us because of the situation. But we don't believe. One thing worries - is everything calm in the north (in Chiang Mai) and in Phuket? Domestic flights to Suvarnabumi not cancelled? Thank you!

yes, there is nothing here. My tourists drive through Bangkok every day and nothing. I myself meet people at the airport twice a week. What are you about??? In Pattaya, revelry and fun, but I generally keep quiet about the islands. It's just a bunch of idiots making movies in Bangkok that get blown up by the media world. 90% total lies!!! Don't be afraid of anything. Come. You will see, you yourself will laugh at your fear.

Good afternoon Amir! Here, on all channels, not excluding the First, the news has thundered that there is almost a state of emergency in Bangkok, 50 people have already died. And in Pattaya, there are supposedly a lot of police (who are supposedly just waiting for someone to be beaten with batons) ... We, in love with Thailand, are of course only on hand - there will be fewer people, tickets will probably become cheaper again ...))) But why distort events like that???

Amir, but in fact - what is your situation with the political situation now? What's with the redistribution of power? Haven't come to a solution yet? What awaits the country if the government changes? They don’t say anything about it here, only this whole ... blood is shown, but I would like to know ...

In Bangkok, the Red Shirts create mayhem on the streets in terms of setting fire to something, breaking shop windows. In short, all this falls under the article "hooliganism." Sometimes they get drunk and shoot each other themselves, sometimes they shoot at the police, and they shoot back. It's just that in Thailand only the lazy do not buy a gun. It costs 1000 baht here, along with cartridges.
But with the tanks too much. The army is not involved in this matter, because. not the scale to attract the army. Only the police deal with the riots.
In Pattaya, sometimes there are a lot of policemen on the streets and ... they catch farangs without a license on motorbikes or without helmets. That's all. They used to sometimes go out on a "raid" to catch motorbikes. Nothing changed. And this is on average once every 2 weeks. Then the police are nowhere to be seen.
And why lie? This is my question. Maybe you know?

That is, these Red Shirts - they constantly go wild in the BPC, not right now? I'm watching TV today - they show right in the center of the BKK, where the bridge is overhead, horror ... this is the very center of the city! They showed how a tank (or an armored personnel carrier, they just briefly showed it) destroys these rebel fortifications, an entire town. And you say - they lie ... It's hard not to believe. This is already MY question :) - is everything as safe as you say? Maybe it's the Thais who are being misinformed?

Answering your question, I can assume that they somehow covertly regulate the influx of Russian tourists. The media is such a powerful lever! When you had a strike at the airport, we also stood here ooh-ah: Thais take hostages, threaten to blow everyone up ... And our Russians, who returned home, say that these strikers - one laugh - waved some flags a couple of times - that's the whole strike)))

yes, I confirm, they croaked. Today for the first time after 23.00 you can not go outside. But I'll explain why. Today the king used the army for the first time and very successfully. Everyone was dispersed and everyone surrendered. More precisely, the main faces of the opposition surrendered, and the rest of the idiots fled in all directions. To avoid their penetration into Pattaya, the local authorities decided to restrict the movement of people tonight in Pattaya. But I just drove along Sekand Road through the whole center and the whole city (I live in Naklua), I did not see a single policeman, especially the military. This is nothing more than a precautionary measure, because. opposition leaders called on all like-minded people not to work miracles in Thailand anymore, but not everyone listened to them. I think in a day or two everything will be quite calm. I'll keep you up to date.

now my secret will come from there, from the center of events and tell everything. But we were supposed to go to Rayong tomorrow (to carry tourists), I asked if we could cancel, she asked in surprise: why? So everything is ok there. And today all are closed because they comply with the law. They said to close, so we need to close, and not to discuss, as is customary with us. I think tomorrow will be ok.

today everyone was ordered to close shops at 21.00 and all institutions. Closed. But people no longer react to this, no one went home at 21.00, everyone is walking, having fun. I was driving at 21.00 by car through the whole city and did not see a single policeman, although it was already curfew time and they should have stopped me. All this is a pure formality. Absolutely no worries. As I thought.
It's now 22:00, we decided to go for a little ride during the curfew, because. everyone hangs out. We also need to unwind after work. Tomorrow I will write what will happen tomorrow.
Ask questions, I will answer all. But better from my site, which is in my profile.

So where have you gone Amir1? You don’t answer the phone, the Thai answers - the English answering machine asks for my number to call back, I already left it three times - there is no action, your site does not work (fills up) there I understand the old info on prices for excursions (for example, Kwai you have 3300 everywhere from 2800 to 3000 baht)
Are you not serious?
