The cdn embassy in BKK usually does not issue much advisories. Nothing during the airport takeover, nothing during the 1st war in BKK. The only other advisory I recieved was just before the 2nd war in BKK. I recieved that days before the shooting started. So to recieve this one now means someone thinks there's going to be problems.

How's the situation actually? I'm spending most of my time in HKG now and only go back to BKK every few months.

i love that i live in bangkok and would not have even noticed were it not for article like this
