Tourists in Thailand face 'extreme' risk: MFAT | Stuff.co.nz
Thousands of Kiwis in Thailand are being urged to leave after the Government increased its advice on the Thai capital to "extreme" risk.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (MFAT) this afternoon upgraded its travel advisory to "extreme" due to the political and civil unrest and threat of terrorism.
MFAT is now advising Kiwis not to travel to Bangkok, while those already there are encouraged to leave. Those in other parts of Thailand also faced a high risk to their security.
