CNA got other news to report can't b all about Thailand. Big C fire has been put out. Majority of Red Shirts want peaceful demonstrations. Its instigators & opportunists that are doing the burning & looting. That corner seafood restaurant, 7-11 and Bangkok Bank next to Big C also kanna burn & looted. Thai TV was interviewing the owners of the restaurant. Today counting the costs, Central World estimated needs minimum 9 months to repair.

Very true. The Thai economy is not all tourism & retail. Trade data from last month show exports were up. Euro now being hammered by Greek crisis. Is our MAS still wanting to keep the SGD weak to encourage exports? 555+ yeah would like to learn a thing or 2 on forex. Hedge the SGD against the THB, or izzit the other way around?
