  • 04 APRIL 2013 - BANGKOK, THAILAND:  Shoppers walk through a metal detector to enter a Bangkok shopping mall. The United States' Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI)  has warned the Thai government that Thailand has the greatest risk of a terror attack in Asia and the fifth greatest in the world. According to a statement from the Thai government the assessment is based on Thailand's relative freedoms and ease of movement in Thailand. In response to the report, Deputy Prime Minister Chalerm Yubamrung announced plans to set up an anti-terror center in Bangkok and work with Thai immigration to institute tougher screening on foreigners entering Thailand. In February 2012, terrorists thought to be connected with the Iranian government were arrested in Bangkok after the house they were living in blew up. At the time, Thai authorities said they suspected it was a bomb factory.    PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ

  • 17 DECEMBER 2018 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: A girl plays on her smart phone in front of her home in a working class neighborhood behind Siam Paragon, an exclusive mall in central Bangkok. According to Credit Suisse Global Wealth Databook 2018, which surveyed 40 countries, Thailand has the highest rate of income inequality in the world. In 2016, Thailand was third, behind Russia and India. In 2016, the 1% richest Thais (about 500,000 people) owned 58.0% of the Thailand's wealth. In 2018, they controlled 66.9%. In Russia, those numbers went from 78% in 2016, down to 57.1% in 2018. The Thai government disagreed with the report and said the report didn't take government anti-poverty programs into account and that Thailand was held to an unfair standard because most of the other countries in the report are developed countries in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.

  • 20 MAY 2015 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: Shopper leave the Big C Supercenter on Ratchadamri Road in Bangkok. Bangkok's malls consume more electricity than some provinces. Siam Paragon, a popular high end mall in central Bangkok, consumes nearly twice as much electricity at the northern province of Mae Hong Son. Thais and foreigners alike flock to the malls in Bangkok, which are air conditioned. Most of the electricity consumed in Bangkok is generated in Laos and Myanmar. In 2013, the Bangkok Metropolitan Region consumed about 40 per cent of the Thailand's electricity, even though the BMR is only 1.5 per cent of the country’s land area and about 22 per cent of its population.

  • 02 FEBRUARY 2015 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: A university student walks through metal detector at a security checkpoint while the guard (right) ignores people coming in at Siam Discovery, a high end shopping mall in central Bangkok. Government sources are saying that security has been heightened following two small bomb attacks close to Siam Paragon, a nearby mall. One person received minor injuries in the attack and a couple of windows were blown out. After months of relative calm following the May 2014 coup, tensions are increasing in Bangkok. The military backed junta has threatened to crack down on anyone who opposes the government. Relations with the United States have deteriorated after Daniel Russel, the US Assistant Secretary of State for Asian and Pacific Affairs, said that normalization of relations between Thailand and the US would depend on the restoration of a credible democratically elected government in Thailand.
