Bangkok Political Unrest... Part 2

The PAD had taken control over Bangkok International Airport.. Any plane to land at the airport must seek permission from the People's Alliance for Democracy (PAD)...

Thai Prime Minister Somchai Wongsawat landed in the northern city of Chiang Mai.. Well i have already guess that he won't land in Bangkok International Airport.. Chiang Mai is actually safer place for him.. because he has more supporter there... Prime Minister Somchai should stay on to fight this unrest... If he were to resign... and again another Prime Minister was elected again from the People Power Party (PPP).. again the PAD will do the same... It will never end.. Mr Somchai should put an end to it.. by sending in the army to disperse the PAD support...

What PAD is doing now is not Democracy at all... "The solution is not the dissolution of parliament. If premier Somchai (Wongsawat) resigns, then we will talk again about whether we will negotiate," top protest leader Pibhop Dhongchai said at Suvarnabhumi airport. So are they giving the Prime Minister and choice? No they are not giving him any option... See this is not democracy way to solve too....

Bangkok Political Unrest...

Bangkok Suvarnabhumi International Airport was closed when thousands of supporters of the People's Alliance for Democracy (PAD) march into the airport... Flight was forced to cancelled.. and the recent news was there is a blast happen at the airport... Now not only the transportation was clipped.. even tourist was stranded... We have received many calls from customers who wanted to cancelled their trip or postpone it...

PAD was going overboard over this.. to me they are no politicians.. they are hooligans.. who used force to kick the government out.. They even wanted the military to stage another crops.. but the general of the army refuse to used military croup to resolve.. The Prime Minister was elected by the people to run the country... and PAD the hooligans trying to take that away.. How could the Thai allow PAD to government?... They should respect the people decision...

If i am the Prime Minister of Thailand.. i will use force to drove out all these violence protest.. and capture all the leaders of PAD... Since the PAD are using violence.. no point in resolving this in peaceful manner.. The Prime Minister need to make a painful decision.. These are no long opposition politicians, they are hooligans, rebels, childish act.. etc.... Imagine if Mr Lee Kuan Yeow was not firm with iron a fist politics during the earlier of building up Singapore.. Will we be still enjoying the peaceful and harmony lives now???

PAD should form a party, work their ground, get support from the people and have a gentlemen fight during the next election.. and not resolved to such rebellion....

Now what PAD has done, not only further weaken the economy, but they have destroy their tourism gold mine... Will it be the end of Thailand?... Or the King should intervene...?

Spend during Economy Downturn....

Because of the USA economy down.. it also affect some of the Asia countries... Especially Singapore.. Now we are already starting to feel the little pinch, when big banks like Citi Bank and DBS Bank start to retrench their staffs... It sounds a bit scary..

The news of retrench was making the headline of the news paper the pass few weeks.. and on the other hand our government has been urging us to spend during this economy downtown.. so as to keep the economy going.. But with all the bad news about the economy, like pay cut, retrenchment, lower year end bonus etc.. who dare to spend? If i keep spending for the next 3 months and the economy got worst.. how? Yes no doubt the government is going to give out cash relieve this time.. but how long can this cash relieve last???

If only the few who are still well off continue to spend during this period.. it can only help to move the economy a bit.. cause out there, many people are still tightening their belt.. And i do agree that during the economy downturn is the best time to get bargains and discounts..

I was thinking of taking up a part time advance diploma in Tourism Management.. so that i won't be stuck in this same company for many many years to come.. I was thinking of moving to recreation jobs area where i get to interact with tourist... like Sentosa, Universal Studio Theme Park, Singapore Zoo or some other Singapore's well known attraction....

Mega Mac vs BK Stackers

Recently i just gave to 2 Giant Burgers - Mega Mac from Mc Donald and Stackers Burger King a try.. and here are my verdicts....

Mega Mac - Four beef patties between 3 slice of burger bread.. Taste just like Big Mac.. Very crunchy, with lots of lettuces and tomatoes slice.. The 4 beef patties is dry.. Got a bit messy after a few bites... Values for money and a more balance diet...

BK Stackers - 4 beef patties in between 2 burger bread... The beef patties are very juicy and top with crispy Bacon.. No veges.. No recommend for diet conscious people... The 4 pieces of melted cheese hold the burger together well.. so not very messy when i sink my teeth into it.. a bit expensive.. but i makes me wanting to come back for more...

After school care nanny...

My wife had brought up the idea of having a after school care nanny for my daughter.. for next year.. and my neighbour is willing to help out.. For next year, i will send my daughter to take school bus to school... then after school, the school bus will send her to the after school care centre (a few block from my place).. And we need a nanny to pick her up from the after school care centre at 645pm and cook dinner for her.. and my wife will fetch my daughter from the nanny place..

But unfortunately, for my neighbour, after sorting out her schedule.. she said her schedule could not fit in... So my wife got no choice but to fetch our child from after school care centre herself...

But the plan was back fired when my wife's company change their working week to 4.5 days.. so instead of working from 8.30am - 5.30pm.. she will have to work from 8am - 6pm (Mon - Thu) & 8am - 1pm (Fri).. with effect from Dec 08... So very desperately we need a after school care nanny... and my wife approach the mother of my child's tuition friend.. and lucky she agreed.. she only have to take care of my daughter from Tue - Thu (6.45pm till 8pm)....

The Bodhisattva Green Tara had answered my prayer.....

And now our daughter has return.. and the whole house have come to live again.. with her laughters and chattness.... She told us that she miss playing PSP, watching cartoon on SCV.. and riding on her bicycle....
