Who, me ? Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 That would have been costly had it gone off. Hope it turns out to be a dud. We might now have this kind of news several times for a while....and hopefully, they will be false alert... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birago23 Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Let's hope it was a false alarm and that security will be tight around every shopping centre with mandatory bag controls at the entrance. Yes, I know it stinks, but unless they catch those criminals it is necessary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarryHacker Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Shoppers frightened by false bomb scare at Central Lardprao A false bomb scare has created turmoil at the popular shopping mall - Cenral Lardprao Tuesday morning. Shoppers detected that the lid of a coin box of a public telephone booth in front of the mall had been left open so they alerted police at about 11:30 am. Police rushed to the scene and evacuated shoppers. Bomb disposal offices checked the booth and the area for about half an hour but detected no bomb. After the checking, shoppers were allowed to return inside the shopping mall. The Nation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope that it was a false bomb alarm. Other friends from Isaan speak also now of a bomb which should have been found, but again, even they are sure, it might be very much false rumours. Exactly that kind of fear those government terrorists want to acchieve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No checks on the BTS (glaring problem to me), no extra security on the platform or on board, nothing at Major on Sukhumvhit...they weren't even mirroring under cars that parked....yikes!

Zen Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 I wonder if anything can be found in a "bag search"...sometimes the security guards just take a brief look into the bags and let u in... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petedk Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Drove to the car park at Central Chidlom. Absolutely no security check which is strange because periodically they do have security checks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
