-- Today, (23rd.), around mid-a'noon. I walked from Phat Pong1., Tnn. Suriwong end, around to PP1., Tnn. Si Lom end, by way of Tnn. Rama IV..
- At that time, and clearly visible to me, were approx. 400 black clad Riot Police and some 100 soldiers - the riot police were centred by the PAN PACIFIC HTL. and along Tnn. Si Lom from the DUSIT THANI HTL.; The mil'y. were lower-down along Tnn. Si Lom, (ie. leaving first contact, should the red shirts decide to sally forth from their stronghold, to the Riot Police.),.
- Along Tnn. Si Lom AU BON PAIN was having its windows boarded-up, the bank next door was having a metal screen erected in front of it and SILOM COMPLEX was having plyboards covered by metal erected in front of it and along the side-walk. SILCOM. may re-open on 26th.?
- In CP. TOWER several shops & outlets CLOSED.
- Around 17.30.hrs. MORE soldiers were on Tnn. Si Lom, and were shooing-away pedestrians to walk-away from Tnn. Rama IV..
- Not so many poor but honest side-walk vendors seen setting-out their wares.
