@markscogan@KhaosodEnglish I was there. No alarms or public address at least on the floor I was, but the evacuation went orderly. Staff guided me down the fire exit.
City hall officials break up water fights on Khaosan Road on Wednesday as water splashing is still banned this year due to the pandemic. Violators face up to two years in prison or a 40,000 baht fine under the Emergency Decree, police warned. #Songkran#สงกรานต์#Thailand#KE
Thailand has set up a field office in Lviv to provide assistance to Thai citizens in Ukraine. It also serves as a staging area for the evacuation of Thai citizens, which is planned as an airlift from the town or from the neighboring Poland. #ยูเครน#Ukraine
It is such an honor to receive #MediaAwards2021 from @AmnestyThailand for my work on COVID-19 uncertainties of refugees in Thailand published on @KhaosodEnglish. Happy to be a voice for human rights issues in Thailand!
