grahamb Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 Anyone else seeing a lot of troop movements this evening in Bangkok? We just saw (@ 21:15 on 2-Mar-07) a large number of armoured personnel carrier type things and trucks driving along Pradiphat Road in Bangkok (near Saphan Khwai). We were watching from the balcony of our apartment so weren't able to see exactly how many there were or where they were going. They were heading along Pradiphat from Rama VI to Paholyothin Road. Didn't see anything similar posted in the Bangkok, News or General forum but I apologise if I missed anything. I know that in theory this is a Bangkok related post but I figure that it may also relate to the rest of Thailand... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britmaveric Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 No worries, probably another coup or smth like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamb Posted March 2, 2007 Author Share Posted March 2, 2007 No worries, probably another coup or smth like that. Well, that was my assumption. We were on holiday when the last one happened so I was wondering if this is my opportunity to get the photos of flowers in tank barrels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColPyat Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 ITV just said that people called asking the same question. They said that it's nothing to worry, just troops returning from an exercise in Lopburi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete_r Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 Internet forums in Thai also talk about up to 60 tanks in Bangkok tonight, and a lot of soldiers at road crossings in Lopburi. Wait and see the news tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
