    Travel Warning Thailand 2010 Bangkok and North Thailand

    By Thai-Eyes | March 17, 2010



    More than 30 countries worldwide,
    like USA, Japan, China, Germany and other Europian Countries
    and also Laos has been issued a travel warning for Bangkok
    and neighboring provinces, because of the Red Shirt protests.
    A few days ago the American Emabassy issued, in top of that,
    a Travel Warning for North Thailand, because of extreme Smog.


    People in the North may say same procedure like every year
    and thats the bitter truth. Farmers burn down their harvested rice fields
    and there are also lots of forest fires, a big percentage human made.
    Even if its against the law, many people are still used to burn their garbage
    in front of their houses and all together produces a big smog cloud,
    which is now covering big parts of North Thailand.
    We´ve received reports from Chiang Rai province last week,
    that there is nearly no breathable air available.
    Since a few days the poisonous smog cloud is also covering the sky of Chiang Mai.
    People complaining about sour throats, chesty cough, skin irritations,
    respiratory distress and others.

    If You still stay in North Thailand wear a breathing protection mask,
    which helps a little bit.
    The Thai Eyes Crew Chiang Mai align ourselves
    with the Travel Warning for North Thailand.
    To avoid serious health problems, don´t travel to North Thailand at this time !
