Army-installed Prime Minister Surayud Chulanont told Thailand on Thursday to prepare for a repeat of the bomb attacks that killed three people in Bangkok on New Year's Eve and ignited fears of a year of political violence.

I leave for Phuket on Jan 11; we're being hosted so we're off the very public/touristy areas and that's a great thing. But we cannot ensconce ourselves for the entire 4 days. It's a short trip, yes, but I'd rather not be blown to bits, thank you very much.


Ah well.
*shrugs*
We'll see how things go.
