BANGKOK RETURNS TO NORMAL

After the recent incident in Bangkok, Bangkok is slowly coming back to normal again.

It has been a rather disturbing 2 months in Bangkok and it is sad that lives were lost.

We hope all Thais will work and unite together and make Thailand recover from this turmoil.

MALAYSIANS CAN BANK ON CLUB TO KEEP THEM SAFE

Malaysians can bank on club to keep them safe

2010/05/21

MALAYSIAN Bobby Tai heads the private banking division of a Thai private investment firm.


The 49-year-old corporate man has been working here for the past 23 years but is more popular among Malaysians here as well as Malaysian embassy officials as the president of Kelab Malaysia of Thailand.

Since Bangkok's crisis worsened, he has been busy putting in place several contingency plans for members.


"We constantly disseminate safety updates through our website www.kelabmalaysiaofthailand.com as well as social networking sites like Facebook."

Tai said the club, which was originally a networking group for Malaysian expatriates, would also try to help those affected by the crisis.

"We can't really do much but we try our best to inform and assist those who need help," he said, adding that several member families have returned to Malaysia because of the situation here.


The turmoil in Bangkok and the curfew announced on Wednesday has left Tai busy keeping the 300-odd club members and their families informed on safety and security issues.

"As a family man and father of a 9-year-old son, I feel that it's also my responsibility to reach out to all members, their families as well as friends to assist them in this time of need,

"The club basically functions as an unofficial extension of the Malaysian Embassy here where advisories are disseminated through all available channels as soon as possible."


Tai said Ambassador Datuk Husni Zai Yaacob and his diplomatic staff had been very proactive in taking care of the interest of all Malaysians in Thailand, especially those is Bangkok.

"We work well with the embassy and have also sat for meetings where we planned safety guidelines with representatives from the Malaysian-Thai Chamber of Commerce."

Tai also reminded Malaysians in Thailand to be mindful of safety and not to wander off as the situation was still dangerous, especially with the on-going curfew.
