Lovia Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 My Aunt and her children were trapped inside their house near Thung Sikarn for weeks, the water level was steadily rising. Her supplies of eggs and Mama noodles was also diminishing. She decided to seek help with the nearest shelter for food, guess what they said? Government Official: You need to stay in the shelter if you want food. Aunt: How do I stay? (She wasn't planning to, she was just asking.) Government Official: You need a red card or a red shirt to prove that you're a red shirt, otherwise you can't stay. Aunt: But isn't this shelter for all Thais ? Why do I need to be a red shirt to seek refuge here? Government Official: *Ignore her question* No red card, please find other means for your food. %#@#%^@%#%@ Yinglux, what the heck are you doing?!!!

Politics are forgotten. It is true, my aunt is not one to tell this type of lies especially during this trying times. Beside, she's quite apolitical. But this is really bad, as I'm typing she's still stuck in her house with no boat but just a beat up car. Edited October 26, 2011 by Lovia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They claim they want democracy, which amongst other things means equality, taking care of all citizens regardless of color (skin color), political, religious of other affiliations, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not care about red shirt/yellow shirt, we only care about people... Dan 0861382591 [email protected] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mamypoko Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 (edited) I sure hope that any "yellow-shirt" inclined people in desperate need of help, will not be dissuaded by this totally unsubstantiated post.

If you think my post are 'flaming' the red shirts, perhaps you might want to take a look at this: Crisis always brings out the worst and the best of humanity, and I think I've seen both.

filingaccount Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Inquiring minds want to know which shelter in which area. Popular media might be interested in a story as well, if given the info. But of course only if your Aunt and her kids are safe and sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd already emailed this matter to The Nation yesterday, this Evacuation Center is Don Meung Airport. Talking about my Aunt, I haven't been able to contact her since this morning and I'm just praying that she'll be all right. And most importantly, I want to give a big shout out to Khun Dan and his team who tried to check on my Aunt yesterday. Thank you so much! :jap: Edited October 27, 2011 by Lovia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
