I-TV just reported that there was after all a bomb discovered in RCA last night. But if I understand correctly, it was discovered and diffused.

Very interesting read here. Loads of current information. The police said they are a "non-violent" type of bomb. Ah, yeah...? However, some close forensic information on those bombs plus evidence that links culprits, in which the article deduces the evidence as "certain". I find the article to be good journalism. From the Nation.
Gyaos.

Report from Bangkok Post dated Tuesday 2 January 2007 :-
Bombs fail to scare away Bangkok shoppers
==================================
Sunday's bomb attacks across Bangkok did not scare away shoppers and foreign tourists who flocked to well-known shopping malls in the Pathumwan tourist district and enjoyed the New Year's shopping.
Both Thais and foreigners yesterday spent their New Year's holidays at the shopping malls, seemingly unfazed by the spate of bombings that had taken place the night before. Food courts in Siam Paragon shopping centre were crowded with customers.
The Brahma statue, which is situated opposite a bomb site in front of the Gaysorn Plaza shopping mall, was full of visitors who went to pay homage at the shrine as usual.
The nearby Intercontinental Hotel reported no cancellations of room bookings.
However, the operators of well-known shopping malls including Siam Paragon, CentralWorld, Big C department store and the MBK shopping complex have stepped up security measures to prevent any violent incidents.
Security guards were ordered to check customers' bags before entering the compounds and all public bins were removed from streets for fear that the bombers could use them to plant bombs.
All vehicles, especially motorcycles, were closely examined before being allowed to park.
American tourist E. Hezemans, who went shopping with his friends at Siam Discovery Centre, said he was confident that the Thai government had introduced proper measures to prevent future bomb blasts and that the situation was now under control.
"I think the government is doing its best to protect Thai people and foreign tourists from violent attacks. That's why I have no plan to shorten my vacation here," said Mr Hezemans, who planned to stay in Thailand for two weeks.
Lee Yen Soon, from Singapore, said he was not scared by the New Year's Eve bombings as it was "totally different from the violence in Thailand's deep South".
"I will take precautions if the bomb blasts take place in Bangkok every day, like those that happen in the three southern border provinces.
"Moreover, this kind of attack does not happen only in Bangkok, but Indonesia and the Philippines have also experienced similar incidents. So there is no need to panic," he said while shopping at CentralWorld opposite Gaysorn Plaza, where a bomb went off at midnight on Sunday.
The tourist said he felt safe inside the department store due to tight security measures.
Kobchai Chirathivat, president of Central Pattana Plc, the operator of CentralWorld, said fewer Thai shoppers visited his shopping mall yesterday, but the number of foreign tourists was the same.
"[Thai customers] might still be panicking about the situation but foreign visitors are still enjoying shopping here," said Mr Kobchai.
As a precaution, the company intends to employ top security measures for at least one week in all of its 30 branches across the country until the situation becomes more stable, he said.
Sakchai Kengkijkosal, deputy manager of the MBK Shopping Complex, said it had stepped up security measures since November following rumours that had spread in the online community that Bangkok would be attacked during the New Year holidays.
"Over 150 security guards have been instructed to frequently patrol the department store.
"Cleaning staff are told to alert supervisors if they spot suspicious items in the building," Mr Sakchai said.
