Coup d’état

posted on September 20, 2006 in Thailand,Travel

We have been enjoying ourselves in Kanchanaburi near the bridge on the River Kwai. We have met elephants and tigers and gone bamboo rafting. Yesterday we woke up to realise that the military has staged a coup and THE GREAT ARMY CHIEF GEN SONTHI BOONYARATGLIN HAS TAKEN CONTROL OF THE COUNTRY. WE ARE RESTORING POWER TO THE PEOPLE UNDER THE COMMAND OF HIS MAJESTY THE KING OF THAILAND. LONG ENOUGH HAVE WE BEEN SLAVE TO THE DEMOCRATIC SYSTEM – IT IS NOW WE GIVE THE COUNTRY BACK TO ITS PEOPLE.

LONG LIVE THE KING. END TRANSMISSION.
