BkkShaggy Posted September 12, 2001 Report Share Posted September 12, 2001 >Thai Commercial Counsellor (6) A friend of mine knows one of the officials woking for Thai Commercial Counsellor. She is in Bkk for a conference. But her husband and their kid are still in NY. NOW she can't contact them at all. Her husband was supposed to drop the kid at the school close to the World trade towers in the morning. My heart goes for her and those who are suffering from the tragedy.

Guest Posted September 12, 2001 Report Share Posted September 12, 2001 All- I spoke with Thai Farmers Bank (TFB) offices in LA yesterday afternoon... They reported that there was no contact from the WTC offices.. That office has seven (7) full-time employees and a "few" local temps.. --UPSer (PS: I am stuck in US airport unable to fly) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 13, 2001 Report Share Posted September 13, 2001 Wondering how the coverage is playing out in BKK ... ?? In viewing the list of tenants at USA Today website I immediately noticed that the Goverment of Thailand was a tenant on the 37th floor of the North Tower ... What's the reaction in BKK ?? see: USA Today - World Trade Center tenant list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 13, 2001 Report Share Posted September 13, 2001 Last night after the tragedy the Thai radio reported that there were Thai offices in the WTO but no Thai's were hurt because they were all "late for work". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sanukdee Posted September 13, 2001 Report Share Posted September 13, 2001 somewhat serious, From today's Bangkok Post... "Husband, wife arrived late for work survive disaster." But on the same page..."30 Thais in building reported missing." [ September 13, 2001: Message edited by: sanukdee ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 13, 2001 Report Share Posted September 13, 2001 I've heard that the reason they were late for work was that the ferry they usually take every morning was late that morning ! Maybe this is the only time in their lives they are glad the ferry was late !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
