Very safe.
There is no problem. Here's aletter from Thailand today

'When my wife finally stopped singing and dancing around with our son at 7.45am

this morning, she shouted out "Damn good!"
a) few people outside Thailand really know how Taksin has so cleverly usurped,

benefitted from financial corruption instead of tackling it, bought up enormous

tracts of his own country in areas of future development, bought foreign homes

while barring foreigners from doing the same here, sued every major media outlet

that criticised him and done NOTHING for the poor, and especially the hilltribes.

Smiled at foreigners while restricting visas even further and pursuing policies

which may ultimately be seen to be xenophobic. Full of promises and no delivery.

Even his home city Chiangmai has waited a year in vain for his promised 53m baht

to tackle flooding.
b) yes, he was democratically elected. The second time. Like another western

premier we could name. At the first one he bought his way in with the "million baht

per village" offer. That turned out to be a loan, not a gift of course, but it did the

trick. Literally!
c) In my personal view this bloodless coup would not have taken place so smoothly,

if at all, without the tacit consent of His Majesty. Maybe the writing was on the

wall days ago? It is reported that Taksin took his whole family to the UN

conference - unprecedented.
d) Dancing in the streets? Well there should be wherever thinking people are to be

found (ie mainly in Bangkok). What we have in the streets here are lots of

armoured personnel carriers and soldiers with rifles slung, looking a little bored

and confused. But they don't mind having their photos taken as I proved on the

way into the office this morning. Not allowed to talk, though, and many don't know

what is happening.
e) Next? One of many responsible comments by General Sonthi was that the army

would not hang on to power for very long. A coalition government, maybe with the

promising young Democrat Abhisit to the fore, could be great!
f) We live in quite exciting times, but feel totally safe and very curious about the

spin-off effects. Prayerfully this can only be good for Thailand!'

No, they need another tsunami to clean out the riff-raff.

Where aren't muslims killing people?

Murders going on now in Philippines, East Timor, Thailand, India, Russia, Israel, Iraq, Spain, UK, US, Sudan (Darfur), Somalia, Ethiopia, and soon a city near you.

Might as well go and enjoy it while you can. Soon, you will be a devout muslim or ....

i don't think it has reached a level of civil unrest yet. it is just a peaceful military coup for now. i doubt it will erupt into anything violent. thaksin has been unpopular for sometime. i think he will step down this time and once someone else takes over, all will be normal.

phuket is safe.
