Bangkok Jam....

Bangkok always never fail to amaze me with new development projects, which provide a backdrop of sky scrappers for the city's poverty and slumps. This metropolitan city is fast moving forward with no visible signs of losing its shiny luster and with no visible marks of the recent September coup, unlike what we have seen in the news. I sometimes wonder how mass medium can be a powerful tool ( and misleading), look at the war in the middle east.

While in Bangkok, I usually make the effort to meet up with friends and this trip is no exception. Rm is one of those rare souls who was braved enough to leave Brunei some years ago, to live and work in this city of Bangkok. It is always good to catch with friends who we haven't seen, long lost faces you haven't seen for a while except for the email or two. Over dinner at Siam Paragon, we catch up with each other's life, how our friends are in Brunei and how he's moving forward with new businesses and life. Its been a good 8 years since he left Brunei. I wish Rm all the best with his undertakings....

On my way to catch the flight home, I had a good walkabout and managed to snap around the gigantic Suvarnabhumi airport....
