Pictures of the Bangkok shopping centre burnt in yesterday's chaos as the red shirts surrendered and withdrew from this part of the city.
Very sad pictures indeed.
After 9/11 this huge shopping centre changed its name from World Trade Center to Central World. Sadly ironic....
Posted: May 19Red shirt leaders have surrendered, Ratchaprasong is clear, army say their operations are completed.
Fires are still breaking out incl Central World shopping centre, as hard core protesters torch previously placed tyres soaked in petrol around Bkk.
It may be all over soon if these pockets of red shirts can be cleared.
Lets hope so....
