On 30 October 2011, down town Bangkok, Thailand is still dry but people are preparing themselves for the flood.

The flooding is bad in other area of Bangkok.

This is the worst flood in 60 years.

Flood is a disaster.

A magnitude 6.8 earthquake hit Myanmar on Thursday night, March 24, 2011.

Myanmar is also known as Burma.

This is a disaster.

The earthquake was centered at the north of the town Tachileik in the mountain along the Thai border.

The quake was felt in Bangkok And Hanoi.

Bangkok is the capital of Thailand while Hanoi is the capital of Vietnam.

Myanmar state radio announced Friday that 65 people had been killed and 111 injured in the quake.

It also said that 244 houses, 14 Buddhist monasteries and nine government buildings were damaged.

Road and bridges  were also damaged.

In Chiang Rai, Thailand, a woman was killed and some people were injured by the earthquake.

Cracks were found in buildings including the hospital and the city hall.

On Friday, March 11, 2011 a magnitude 9.o earthquake and tsunami hit Japan.

I am very sorry and sad for all the victims, their families and friends.

Egyptians are angry of the Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak.

So they held demonstrations.

Demonstrations is a way to fight for something important.

But they are supposed to stop doing bad things and violence during the demonstrations because it can destroy our world.

Violence can turn into a war.

This is a disaster.

It is like what happened in Bangkok.

People were killed and injured; buildings, cars and plants were destroyed.

They should have a peaceful demonstration to say what they wanted.

And the government should listen to the people and discuss what can be done for them.

We have to take care of our Earth and lets go green.

War in Bangkok? (photos)

The unrest in Bangkok between the Red Shirt and the government is getting worse.

Bangkok is the capital of Thailand.

At least 36 people died in the clashes so far.

A lot of people were injured.

The Red Shirt protesters set fire to tires, fired homemade rockets and threw gasoline bombs at soldiers.

Things like this is bad because it can start a war.

War is bad.

We can have a peaceful protest to fight for something important.

But we should not use violence to get what we want.

Setting fire also causes air pollution and global warming.

Parts of buildings were damaged and the rubble also caused more pollution.

This is a man-made disaster.

I hope they can find other ways to get what they want without destroying the Earth.

People need to learn that it is very important to save the Earth.


These open fire caused air pollution and global warming!

A Busy Weekend

Aunty Selina reached Kuala Lumpur on Friday night.

She flew from Bangkok on Thai Airways.

Aunty Selina lives in Maryland, USA.

Aunty Selina brought us wonderful presents from USA.

I get a very nice Thomas Train book and a very beautiful 200 pieces Solar System jigsaw puzzle.


There are lots of poems and beautiful pictures in the book.

I like to write poems 🙂

The puzzle looks like a real picture taken by a satellite!

Aunty Selina gave us lots of chocolates too.

They are very, very tasty.

I went to a lot of places so I can’t write any post for the past few days 😉

I’ll write about our trip to Putrajaya soon.

I like Aunty Selina very much.
