Can we expect the hoarding of food goods etc. I was not on Island for the 2006 coup..

I live VERY close to Makro.. I think I go shopping at 6am and report back on both the Rawai Makro and Rawai Lotus.

Back at 7am

CPC

No hoarding or food shortages in 2006 coup.

Was cash an issue? We had problems near to my place in 2008 with ATM being basically empty.....In BKK sorry, hence my questionning Phuket here

Every time something more than usual happens in Thai politics, I stock up popcorn so that it will last the length of the show.

It's more of an tradition now.

This was from January 10. This time I only got 2 bags, so the length of this event will likely be shorter at this stage.

Only time I can remember hoarding was during the floods. Coups, tsunamis, political unrest, mai pen rai.

Hoarding what a joke, why would anyone bother

Thailand is not Africa

The curfew may slow down deliveries from Bangkok but no one will starve or die of thirst

or even come close to it

@Oilinki

Where can I buy popcorn kernels like that, please?

SuperCheap's have those. 1kg bags are something like 50 baht and it lasts quite long time .

Was just told curfew is now 12-4 !!

Not true. It's best to be very careful with these kind of information.

Curfew is the same as before and military is strict with the times. Even if it would be possible to go around in local area, I would not wish to meet an military officer who have had a bad day and wish to put the people who break the rules directly to the monkey house.

you will be alright mate, just go to a produce merchant(supplies bulk seed and animal food) and buy your corn in 50/100KG sacks

Never have to worry about running out of popping corn
