I WAS THERE! … 9 Days I Was Eyewitness In Thailand Airports! …
And Only Foreigner… (VID, PICS)

I AM STILL ALIVE…

I spend incredible moments, maybe most excitement week of my life in Thailand Airports, Suvarnabhumi and Don Muang. I think that I was sitting with you guys here in evening when everything changed, and I saw news about demonstrations in Thailand airports… Time was 22.15 at 24.11.2008.

In 23.30 same evening I read from Bangkok Post that there were shooting in Suvarnabhumi, at 0.00 I made my decisission, woke up my wife, and gear up my things. I live in middle Thailand, but that was no excuse me not to drive my truck to Bangkok fast as I could, following a loud voice from my heart… I was there at 03.00 in the night. Only foreigner in protestors barricades that first night at Suvarnabhumi.

Then start my nine days of great experience. I report to my home country all events, I saw my self a Neutral messenger from foreign country, and as lonely active human shield… There was family peoples, childrens, old people… But then I witness 5 shootings and 3 grenade attacks towards them, one hits really near me in Don Muaeng, where I was only foreigner for about 5 nights and days, without any break. Sleeping and eating with them.

I just download couple of my videos, which I record only 10 seconds after huge explosion, only 30 meters from my post at 2.12. 2008, where one was killed, and 14 injured – Look all the 7 clips which I just download to Youtube! Includes very Raw material…

Just notice how fast injured gets medical treatment, and how fast they are in ambulances. A small evidence how well everything was prepared and managed over there. Notice also how calm everybody is acting, even there was no proof or knowledge, when next grenade will blow, and where.

Counter Attack by PAD Toward Police in Suvarnabhumi

Also i was witnessing great counter attack by demonstrators toward police, at Saturday when they try to come near Suvarnabhumi Airport. They had no chance when thousands of demonstrators counterattack them right away, over 5 km away from their fortress, and police retreat, and never came back… Feeling and spirit with fighters in that attack was totally fearless and brave!

There are more videos already in youtube, at my channel.

Sorry you guys, and to whole world to get this material out now, couple of days late, but all my connections was blocked in Airports, after huge Virus attack to my flaptop, somebody blocking my phone connections and listening my phone… and after many sleepless night I just want to rest, when I get out from there back home. Now I am back, I am still alive, and I learn a lot! I have about 1000 pictures, 200 videos… I maybe will write a book what I just experienced.

In Thailand there are 2.8 million foreigner, but only me was keeping observers position at Don Muaeng Airport to the last morning of demonstrations. That only neutral observers responsibility was very tough to carry, really was… “Crazy Farang From Finland!”

To win demonstrations, there is nothing to do with anarchy in those, but discipline and orders, tight plans and hierarchy. Those great Thai peoples from PAD just learn me a great lesson how to win political ground with huge demonstrators…

Attack is always the best defense, also in demonstrations.
