night market, early morning market, all pratunam markets all ok.. and V crowded.. street hawkers all there.. though protest site just next to platinium, beside the public river boat.. by Big C. they are peaceful. . walked past there everyday.. super rich exchange is there. lots of pasar malam stalls setup there selling the shut down accessories.. good business.

just dont bother to take the public transport Bts during peak hour.. horrific... I was a sardine pack and push onto the train... absolutely crazy. .. nothing like the orderly manner in sg. so avoid bts during evening peak hour. regretted not taking the tuk tuk instead. ..
