PM asks people to avoid crowded parties Prime Minister Surayud Chulanont has asked people to refrain from joining crowded new year party following at least seven bomb attacks in Bangkok. Thai New Agency quoted Surayud as asking people wishing to join new year party on Sunday night to avoid crowded areas. The premier has ordered all security officers; police and soldiers, to reinforce in many areas in Bangkok. He ordered crime scene inspectors to collect all evidences from the attack scenes in order to know which groups mastermind the attacks. Six explosives went off almost simultaneously in Bangkok, killing two and injuring at least 20 people, as the revellers were about to start celebrating the New Year's eve. One people were killed and 17 injured at the Victory Monument when a powerful bomb went off near a bus station at about 6.30 pm. The bomb ripped through the bus stops, shattered windows at the nearby restaurant and sending debris in all directions. Another person was killed near the Klong Toei area near the Na Ranong intersection, around the same time, a bomb hidden in a trash can near a Chinese spirit shrine exploded and injured three pedestrians. The explosion caused a secondary explosion to a number of cookinggas cylinders that were situated nearby. One person was seriously injured at Sapan Kwai intersection where witnesses saw a man dropped a grenade from a pedestrian bridge onto the police box. Residue of C4 and TNT were found at the scene, an iTV reporter said, quoting an unnamed military source. At the Seacon Square Shopping Mall, a loud explosion went off at the parking space, creating a panic but no injury. Authorities ordered all shoppers, about 10,000 at the time, to evacuate the mall, one of Bangkok largest, and all shops to close down for business. A police box at the entrance of Sukhumvit Road, Soi 62 was also hit with a bomb. No injury was reported.

REJSEVEJLEDNING THAILAND Gyldig 31-12-2006 Den 31. december 2006 om morgenen lokal tid eksploderede flere bomber i Bangkok. Den danske ambassade i Thailand følger situationen tæt og er løbende i kontakt med de thailandske myndigheder. De thailandske myndigheder har oplyst, at der ikke er udlændinge blandt ofrene. Det vides ikke, hvem der står bag bombesprængningerne. Situationen i Thailand efter militærkuppet den 19. september 2006 er de fleste steder normal. Der opretholdes fortsat militær undtagelsestilstand. En civil overgangsregering er udpeget og vil skulle lede Thailand frem til det forventede valg i oktober 2007. Danskere, der opholder sig i Bangkok, rådes til at undgå eventuelle demonstrationer. I visse dele af Sydøstasien er der generelt stor risiko for terrorangreb. Turist- og feriecentre i Thailand kan være blandt de mulige mål, og de thailandske myndigheder har - også i lyset af de voldelige uroligheder i det allersydligste Thailand - indført generelt skærpede sikkerhedsforanstaltninger. Danskere i Thailand bør generelt udvise stor agtpågivenhed. Dette gælder især personer, der er ubekendte med de lokale forhold. Agtpågivenhed bør udvises på offentlige steder, hvor mange vesterlændinge ofte opholder sig, især ved religiøse helligdomme, på restauranter, diskoteker, caféer, barer og lignende. Man bør undgå demonstrationer og andre situationer, hvor større menneskemængder samles samt nøje følge anvisninger givet af lokale sikkerhedsmyndigheder, guider m.v. Danske virksomheder bør i samarbejde med de lokale myndigheder nøje gennemgå deres sikkerhedsforanstaltninger. Der bør udvises særlig årvågenhed omkring internationale skoler. Forældre med børn på sådanne skoler bør rådføre sig med skoleledelsen om børnenes skolegang. Alle rejser, der ikke er nødvendige, til og igennem de sydlige provinser Songkhla, Narathiwat, Yala og Pattani frarådes. Der har fundet et betydeligt og stigende antal bombesprængninger sted i de nævnte sydlige provinser i det seneste år, og regeringen har på denne baggrund vedtaget et dekret med henblik på undtagelsestilstand i disse områder. Bombeangrebene har især været rettet mod repræsentanter for myndighederne, men der er også i stigende omfang tale om angreb rettet mod den lokale civilbefolkning i form af bombesprængninger i bl.a. Hat Yai internationale lufthavn, i butikker og stormagasiner, på markedspladser, i banker samt ved turisthoteller og barer med dræbte og sårede til følge. Der har desuden været voldsomme sammenstød mellem sikkerhedsmyndighederne og formodede oprørere i Songkhla og Pattani-provinserne. Antallet af bombesprængninger og dræbte som følge af urolighederne har ligget på et konstant højt niveau gennem det seneste år. Situationen er fortsat ustabil langs dele af den thailandsk-burmesiske grænse, og rejsende bør udvise forsigtighed i disse områder. Det anbefales, at rejsende, der ønsker at besøge afsidesliggende områder og områder langs den thailandsk-burmesiske grænse, forinden forhører sig om den aktuelle situation i området hos de lokale myndigheder. Rejsende bør være opmærksomme på, at der i Thailand er hårde straffe for alle typer narkotikaforbrydelser. Selv besiddelse af meget små mængder narkotika kan give fængselsstraffe af flere års varighed - domme på 50 års ubetinget fængsel er ikke usædvanligt - og i værste fald dødsstraf. Rejsende, der benytter taxa, bør kun anvende registrerede taxaer med gule nummerplader eller limousineservice, da der har været flere overfald på udlændinge, der har benyttet uregistrerede taxaer. Forbliven i landet udover det givne visums gyldighed kan i værste fald resultere i indsættelse i immigrationsfængsel. Rejsende bør ikke aflevere deres pas til tredjepart som sikkerhed for betaling til hoteller, udlejningsfirmaer etc. Endvidere bør rejsende opbevare deres pas på forsvarlig vis, da tyveri af pas er ganske udbredt. http://www.um.dk/...ailand.htm |

String of blasts rock Bangkok, killing 2 New Year's Eve parties cancelled / Rumours point to 'undercurrents' / Police, military out in force around country Police and military personnel were scrambling to find out who was behind what seems to have been a coordinated bomb attack in the capital last night that left two people dead and more than 20 people injured. Bangkok was rocked by six explosions early in the evening at widely separate parts of the city, completely disrupting New Year's Eve celebrations. Tens of thousands of alarmed people swarmed out of the city centre hours before midnight after the capital's major parties were cancelled. One person was killed and at least 17 injured when a powerful bomb went off at the Victory Monument at about 6.30pm. The blast ripped through bus stops, shattering windows at a restaurant and sent debris flying in all directions. The dead man was identified as Songkran Kanjana. His age was not known. "Bodies were scattered all over the place. I didn't know who to help first," an eyewitness told TV reporters. The second fatality was Suwitchai Nakiem, 61, who was killed by a blast near the Na Ranong intersection in the Klong Toei area. The bomb, which was hidden in a trash can near a Chinese spirit shrine, injured three pedestrians and caused a number of cooking-gas cylinders kept nearby to also explode. Two people were injured in a blast at the Saphan Kwai intersection. Witnesses said they saw a man drop a grenade from a pedestrian bridge onto a police booth below. Residue of C4 and TNT explosives were found at the scene, an television reporter said, quoting an unnamed military source. A bomb was found in a dustbin outside a gold shop on the first floor of Seacon Square shopping mall on Srinakharin Road. It was removed to the parking lot and went off harmlessly when no one was standing near. The blast created panic among the roughly 10,000 shoppers in the mall at the time, who were ordered to evacuate. All outlets in the mall were ordered to close their shutters. There were blasts at two police booths, one at the Khae Rai intersection in Nonthaburi province just north of Bangkok, where police said the closed circuit TV monitors went out of action about 3 hours before. The other was at the entrance of Sukhumvit Road Soi 62. No injuries were reported. The explosions brought a swift reaction from police around the country. Military personnel were called out in a number of centres to assist police with security. Speaking at a press conference called two hours after the first bomb went off, police spokesman Pol General Ajiravid Subarnbhesaj said the coordinated blasts were intended to "create chaos". Few sources were prepared to comment openly on the source of the explosions. Speculation was rife that it was an insurgent attack from the South, given the timing of the bombings. But most intelligence sources were emphatic that it was connected to the "undercurrents" of post-coup political tension. Soldiers were posted at some of the blast sites, while major shopping complexes, including the Central Chidlom and Siam Paragon, closed their doors early. Deputy Bangkok Governor Wallop Suwandee announced that the New Year's eve countdown celebrations planned at Sanam Luang had been cancelled. The Central World Shopping Centre, where another major count-down venue was designated, also cancelled the event. But revellers at the CentralWorld plaza were reluctant to call it quits and dragged the party on for another two hours after its cancellation. Government Spokesman Yongyuth Malyalarp urged the public to remain calm and said the police had been instructed to stay on high alert, especially in areas where large gatherings of people were expected take part in the New Year countdown. "Police reinforcements have been sent to various areas of the city. We urge the public to remain calm, continue with the celebrations, but at the same time keep a lookout for any irregularities," Yongyuth said. Prime Minister Surayud Chulanont is keeping a close watch on the situation as it develops, he said. Surayud late last night visited some of the wounded at Rajvithi Hospital. The New Year's eve bombings capped a year of unrest in the nation, with political turmoil that was capped by a coup d'etat three months ago and an ongoing insurgency in the Malay-speaking deep South. More than 20 public schools, mostly in the North and Northeast, have been torched in the past three months. Authorities suspect fires may have been politically motivated arson attacks. |
