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.

I really get the impression nothing much has changed here, since this all started....

I have only seen one Policeman on his bike, without a helmet too.... rolleyes.gif ... but then I have not been around Chawang lake! whistling.gif

None of the International News channels have even mentioned anything about Thailand for a couple of days now... that I have seen.... wink.png

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.

Big Police and Military build up in Chaweng now!

“Business as usual” in Chaweng last night...?

Curfew now from 12.01PM till 4 AM

This post has no relevance to the Koh Samui forum. Please move to the Thailand news forum.

If you do not wish to have the information, change channels. People do travel , unlike some members.

Big helmet check at the lake at 10 am this morning

Other that 7/11 and Family Mart all seems normal . Samui the feudal state continues as always

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 .

Well, it was done by the same people who are maintaining the curfew . . .

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?

TOT Fiber is dead as well. However AIS 3G (my backup) is still working fine. Maybe it's just a TOT problem.

Yep - it's a TOT wobble. 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.

ThaiPBS reports that the curfew is to be considered lifted in major tourist areas such as Samui and Phuket.

Hopefully this means it's lifted on Phangan as well; I haven't been able to sleep with the sound of thousands of soldiers marching on the streets all night.

Phangan is definitely not on the list which means... well nothing apart from 7/11 closing early.

Well I think everyone thinks it must be lifted here too, as I have seen the halfmoon advertising boards been put up around the island today...

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.
