Bloody Blast in Bangkok
Tuesday, August 25, 2015
Tommy Goh, 56, was on his way to the Ratchaprasong intersection in Pathum Wan District, Bangkok, on Monday afternoon last week. The Thai-Malaysian waited for his taxi and expected to arrive at the busy tourist area by 7pm. Fortunately for him, the taxi never arrived. "So we went somewhere else," he said as quoted by Bangkok Post.
The delay spared him from being at the center of a deadly blast outside the gate of the Erawan Shrine, a holy site dedicated to the Hindu god Brahma. "It was very loud and the ground shook like in an earthquake," said Charnchai Pathumsit, a hotel security guard who was standing at the traffic lights at the Ratchaprasong intersection when the bomb went off. "It felt like a big rock had hit my right ankle."
