Good news, I can keep in Phuket, Thailand as it seems that Thailand is out of it's misery!
We finally have a new PM! And it was getting time as tourists keep on canceling their bookings to our Phuket resort and an empty beach like in the picture is quite rare to say the least in Thailand. Unfortunately, that's how things look...
Ideal if you want to have a peaceful Thailand vacation, but not too ideal for us wanting to make money in the tourist industry.
But we got a new PM today! This is what the demonstrators in Bangkok have been asking for and now they have it.
I hope they can accept him but well... He (Somchai Wongsawat) is the brother-in-law of former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra: the one the demonstrators kicked out of office. Not a good start to choose a person from the same family I find. But what's important is how the demonstrators feel: once they are happy, tourists will come back to Phuket and we will be happy as well :-)
Anyway, for the time being I keep stationed in Phuket and crossing fingers the tourists will flock back like bees on a pot of honey :-)
