This unscheduled holiday preceded and joined with the scheduled Thai traditional New Year (Songkran) holiday occurring from Saturday 11th April to Wednesday 15th April. These dates included closure of all Government and Post Offices within Thailand. Following the violence and civil unrest that broke out in Bangkok over the Songkran / Easter weekend, instigated by the same red-shirted factions, current Democrat Party Thai Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva instructed, on Tuesday 14 April, that Thursday and Friday 16-17 April would be an extension to the national holiday, in order to give the government time to make central Bangkok safe for people to return to their workplaces.]]> http://www.gazlannathai.com/eye/2009/04/holiday-extended-after-bangkok-riots-thailand-closed-for-10-days/feed/ 3 http://www.gazlannathai.com/eye/2009/01/british-expatriate-murdered-in-his-chiang-mai-home/ http://www.gazlannathai.com/eye/2009/01/british-expatriate-murdered-in-his-chiang-mai-home/#comments Mon, 26 Jan 2009 20:00:11 +0000 Garry http://www.gazlannathai.com/eye/?p=230 http://www.gazlannathai.com/eye/2009/01/british-expatriate-murdered-in-his-chiang-mai-home/feed/ 0 http://www.gazlannathai.com/eye/2008/12/mediterranean-cables-cut-global-internet-access-falls/ http://www.gazlannathai.com/eye/2008/12/mediterranean-cables-cut-global-internet-access-falls/#comments Sat, 20 Dec 2008 07:02:18 +0000 Garry http://www.gazlannathai.com/eye/?p=174 Internet and phone communications between Europe, the Middle East and Asia were severely disrupted on Friday (19th Dec 2008) after three undersea cables were damaged in the Mediterranean, France Telecom said. "The causes of the cut, which is located in the Mediterranean between Sicily and Tunisia, on sections linking Sicily to Egypt, remain unclear," a statement said, while a spokesman said it was unlikely to have been an attack.
