I'm planning on coming to Bangkok in about a week. Can you keep us updated on the situation there? Is the BTS open?

As always its nowhere near as bad as the news make out, i had to walk through the red shirt camp with a 3 day old baby to take her home from the hospital last week so im sure that you will be cool...

The crane came crashing down onto the Miami hotel.

BTS open, protests etc : situation OK last few days but best to read updates on the English speaking newspaper websites

I saw signs at the BTS station saying that The BTS is only running between 10am-8pm.

I'm not sure if that's still the case.

About a week ago, BTS announced that their entire system will be closing early every day at 8 pm....until further notice.... because of the Red Shirt protests and the attack on Saladaeng Station.... BTS is opening at the regular time, not late, at 6 am...

The crane incident didn't/hasn't had any impact on BTS service....

The MRT subway is currently running regular, full hours...except for the Silom Station, which is closing early, at 8 pm I believe...

Thanks to all. Is traffic moving on Soi 11. I'll have to come by taxi.

Yes, a big crane. Much damage I wonder? Someone must have gotten a shock in the upstairs rooms.
