On the bus going to
Democracy monument I met a fireman going to work. What can burn? All the
buildings are concrete. Many wood factories are in the area. Oh. Do you want to
see the fire station? it is close to the monument. Sure. When we got off the
bus he asked if I wanted a Beer? OK we went into 7-11, got one a piece. the
teller asked if we wanted them open? I looked at him and he said yes.. Teller
popped the caps, so we could begin consuming rite away. We walked to the
station, open beers in hand. Sat around drinking with the other firemen. Boss
came by, Then the top boss showed up... My friend was soon doing push-ups.
what's up with that?
No beer allowed at the station. oops........ I suggested one hand.. a few more
pictures. I can hear
loudspeakers in the distance. Hope my
new fireman friend is has made amends with his push-ups.
I must go on. I am drawn to where the protestors hold positions, regardless of tear gas used only days before.
Five deaths are confirmed since these protests began.
I have met the limits for drinking beer, punishment administered quickly.
How does this Monarchy work? (Sequel “Politics in Thailand”).Yes what can burn? But in most countries is not the fire service a general rescue service? Not just dealing with fires.
