khunPer Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 At least my local familymart (chaweng ring road) was open about 1:30AM today (monday to tuesday). It was closed since the beginning and reopened. I don't know about 7/11 and others but seems they were open, at least more open than yesterday.. All Family Mart en route Maenam-Chaweng were open last night (Monday-Tuesday), but most 7-eleven – apart form a few who probably can't find a key – closed.

None of the International News channels have even mentioned anything about Thailand for a couple of days now... that I have seen.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOggMonster Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Just found out why there was a big police presence on Chaweng lake today. 2 Chinese tourists were raped on Chaweng beach a few night ago. Many Bangkok police are in Samui now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birdman Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 sorry, but the helmet check at Lake roundabout today was not big at all and nothing unusual, not worth mentioning at all and has nothing in common with the curfew . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robsamui Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 sorry, but the helmet check at Lake roundabout today was not big at all and nothing unusual, not worth mentioning at all and has nothing in common with the curfew .

robsamui Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 TOT broadband went off at just after 1.00 am. Is this part of the media blackout? Is 3bb down too? Or is it just a normal tot wobble? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TOT Fiber is dead as well. However AIS 3G (my backup) is still working fine. Maybe it's just a TOT problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wrote the above with a p-a-i-n-f-u-l-l-y s-l-o-w AIS 3G connection. Then just now I spotted the light on my router all of a flicker again. The blip lasted about 45 mins.

Mole Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Might as well officially lift the curfew because so far, nobody seemed to have cared anyway. I was out 2 days ago and Ark Bar, Soi Green Mango, Solo Bar, Camp Beer and other places + 7-11 just behind Chaweng Police station was still open at 3AM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
