SUKHUMVIT NEWS: Nana Thugs Strike Fear Into Elderly Store Owners

A family running a clothing store in Bangkok's Nana area say they are being intimidated by thugs in a dispute over pavement space.

Sukhumvit Fair

I've been SO LAZY ever since the new year started. I think it's becoz the weather turned warm again so soon. Hell, the "winter" was almost non-existent~!!
Nowadays the sun is so freakin' BRIGHT I can't open my eyes completely. The humidity has also risen, and the heat... oh the heat... it just SAPS MY ENERGY~~!!!!

Well, at least I was able to stuff my face silly with all the foodies~!!
