Guest Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 I think it starts tomorrow. So today is still under old rule and therefore curfew starts at 10pm. But as the new rule is in effect after midnight, curfew ends at 4am. Following days it will be from midnight to 4am. But in reality, does the military or police care if there is plenty of people on the streets celebrating their new freedom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post DLP Posted May 27, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 27, 2014 Why have a curfew for 4 hours, why cant they just lift the curfew and be done with it. Maybe they have there reasons ? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post bigt116 Posted May 27, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 27, 2014 I wonder what they think will be happening that is a threat to national security between midnight and 4a.m?? If you know the streets should be virtually empty, then it gives the security forces less people to check and also means that any unexpected movement can be considered as suspicious. This greatly helps with hindering the movement of wanted people and arms. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The movement of arms from the North by road to Bangkok. They can't move them during the day ? Touche, though without a curfew they would prefer to move them under the cover of darkness. Also, do you remember how many grenade attacks the red shirts perpetrated on the PDRC camps during the day. I don't remember any. There were a lot more done at night. Cover of darkness again.

Also, do you remember how many grenade attacks the red shirts perpetrated on the PDRC camps during the day that killed over 20 and injured over 700. There were a lot more done at night. Cover of darkness again. How many grenade attacks were the red shirts responsible for, djjamie? You say you know, tell us how you do and which red shirts were responsible. Or shall we put this down to the good old TVF "every one knows" standard of evidence. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But finish at 4 am Doesn't make a big difference whether it's 4 or 5am. Who gets up and is on the roads that early anyway, except shift workers, reporters etc. I'm glad that the curfew now only starts at midnight, 10pm was definitely way too early...sometimes with the traffic in Bangkok at 10pm you could still be stuck in traffic along Rama I or Sukhumvit etc. or still be stuck inside a shopping mall parking lot (such as Paragon) 2.5 hours after you first got inside your car...
