While the Thais are braving to bring down the country's enemy, Pappies are making a fuss about safety of singaporean travellers.
The ST toilets papers are also pro-thais' enemy.
Well done thailand, keep up your spirit, bring down the thugsin regime and show the sinkapore 66% what is people' power.
SINGAPORE: The street protests in Bangkok have had little effect among Singaporeans visiting or working there.
Even though the Thai government has imposed emergency rule, vacationers said they have hardly noticed any difference. While some said they have made arrangements to return home earlier, most did not.
Flight SQ975 touched down at Singapore’s Changi Airport a little past 4pm on Tuesday and passengers on the flight said it was not full.
Many of the holiday—makers were aware of the political crisis in Bangkok. But they said the protests were isolated and not widespread across the city, and most of them came back as scheduled.
Passenger Allan Teng said: "In fact, we wanted to extend it. We didn’t feel, at any point in time, that we were in danger because it was business as usual in the shopping areas."
"Apart from barricades at the airport, it was nothing," said Chew Lu—Min, another passenger.
But the political protests did ruffle a few feathers.
"I was supposed to take the 7pm flight, but I changed it to 1pm. All the calls and messages from Singapore made me feel the tension. Otherwise, I felt okay," said Jolene Lee.
As for those working in Bangkok, it was business as usual.
One of them, Suwito Kua, said: "I don’t see much difference because the demonstration area doesn’t affect where we come from. Of course, there’s some worry. We’re not sure whether the situation will always be in control or not."
Another Singaporean in Bangkok, Shelia Leong, said: "No, it’s not affecting me at all... nothing is really happening here. Life is normal, nobody has really told me that they are uncomfortable... "
Singapore’s Foreign Affairs Ministry (MFA) has advised people to postpone their travels to Bangkok to a later date. If there is an urgent need to travel there, Singaporeans are advised to register with the MFA at its website.
