It's not over!

Shortly after settling down in our new location, the alleged protest leaders apparently surrendered themselves to the authorities. Within minutes, all hell broke loose as the rogue Reds decided to take matters into their own hands and declared independence from their leaders.

Bangkok literally went up in flames as the Reds were hell-bent on destroying the city. As I'm writing this, more and more places are being targeted for arson and looting. We could still see the smokes engulfing the sky from the balcony of the apartment which we relocated to. As we see the news all around, all I can say for now is that Bangkok has seen better days. It is such a shame that it has now been destroyed by the irresponsible people who used their poverty and quest for democracy as an excuse to commit such a crime.
