Delay plan to visit Bangkok

Bangkok may be a place to visit for a holiday but right now, it's best to delay your plan to visit the popular holiday destination. This is in view of the political unrest in the country. Citizen protests are centered in the city itself and a state of emergency has been declared in Bangkok.

This state of emergency gives the army sweeping powers to detain or remove people without a court order after protesters stormed parliament on Wednesday and forced government officials to scale a wall and flee by helicopter.
