Airport Security

[luangtom]

So why is the airport closed?

For starters because the PAD have taken over the Control Tower- duh...

With all of the two major airports under PAD control, how is it that it was so easy to overtake security

and gain control? Is this a foretaste of things to come as it pertains to terrorists of the international ilk?

Were the armed guards seen walking the terminals and tarmac on all of our visits just for show? Who

told them to turn away from their duties to secure the airports? As a frequent visitor, I find this alarming.

Nobody told them, it turned 5pm and their shift was up so they went home. What do you expect them to do, work overtime?
