An executive on Thai Air got fired last month because he took over 50 extra bags when he flew from Japan to Thailand. He should have paid several hundreds of thousands THB in fines but he did not pay anything. He also did not pay anything to the customs officers in Bangkok because he sent the luggage to lost and found department when he arrived. The union of all people has now filed a complaint with the PM of Thailand telling him to look into this matter.

The customs office of Thailand says they have no control over the lost luggage, personal staff exits and some other places. They said that these exits are constantly used by highly connected people to go in and out in the Bangkok airport and avoid paying tax for good like normal people do.

If Thailand wants to stop groups similar to the Redshirts that now creating havoc in Bangkok traffic this is exactly the kind of thing that needs to be stopped, people with connection that can afford to pay tax for good but just ignore it because they are rich and famous.

The Red Shirts or UDD have once more taken to the streets and are at this moment blocking the traffic in Bangkok. These are the roads they will march on:

Yommarat road
Petchaburi road
Ratchadapisek road
Ladprao road
Bangkapi road
Ramkamheng road
Rama 4 road
Silom road
Yaowarat (China Town) road and most shop in China town are closed due to this.

The Redshirts have been instructed not to hit back or scream back at the angry people in Bangkok and hope people from Bangkok will join them.

The Redshirts have promised not to take the way around the airport and to the Siriaj Hospital where the King of Thailand is staying.

Since the traffic is almost to a standstill in central Bangkok traffic going in and out from the city will off course be blocked as well.

If you do not have any business in Bangkok today and tomorrow do not go there.

You can follow the updates on our twitter during the day http://twitter.com/PersonalThai
