gobbledonk Posted August 22, 2003 Report Share Posted August 22, 2003 TB, You neglected to mention that aboriginals from hotspots like 'The Block' at Redfern were rounded up and shipped off to regional centres - Moree, Glen Innes and even interstate - for the duration of the Olympics. Can you imagine the outcry if blacks had been relocated prior to the Atlanta Olympics ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 22, 2003 Report Share Posted August 22, 2003 I can't picture any world leaders doing the NEP crawl. They have to be discrete so escort agencies and entertainment clubs might be where they will draw from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khwaimaisabai Posted August 22, 2003 Report Share Posted August 22, 2003 Hi rabbit, These people don't travel alone. They will have an entourage of dozens and they are the ones likely to be found in NEP. Khwai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Man at Work Posted August 22, 2003 Report Share Posted August 22, 2003 Says Pom Michael: BB, You sure about that date? The government announced "public" holidays for Friday, 17 Oct and then again for Monday 20 Oct through Wednesday 22 Oct. 23rd Oct was anyway a Public Holiday for Chulalongkorn Memorial Day. Might as well take off Friday 24th too ! Here is the schedule that I have seen for the two main meetings : October 17-18, 2003 15th APEC Ministerial Meeting October 20 ? 21, 2003 11th Informal APEC Economic Leaders? Meeting Cheers!

I will be arriving at the 17th (for my own little EDEN-Summit) and will leave the 21st for Samui. MaW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samak Posted August 22, 2003 Report Share Posted August 22, 2003 bad luck for your schedule as i mentioned to you in Meetings/Calendar already. there are at the moment very controversial reports, whether they will close down the sanuk areas for 6 days or not. bar owners are very worried, that this will happen. we will see when it's getting closer.
