I believe this to be a rumour as I can not substantiate it anywhere else. But if it is true it would grind Bangkok to a total halt. I do not know where they got this news from but I sincerely hope it is a rumour ....



According to Thaivisa Forum News area:

Petrol sales and deliveries in Bangkok suspended

Fuel stopped; Broadcasters closed as government increases pressure on red shirts

BANGKOK: -- Fuel deliveries and community television and radio stations are the latest target of the Thai government in the lead-up to the mass rally by red-shirt protesters this weekend.

Early this morning government lawyers applied to the Thailand Supreme Court for an order closing all radio and television stations affiliated with the United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD).

At the same time the Petroleum Authority of Thailand (PTT) announced on Thai Business Channel that it was suspending all fuel sales and deliveries to Bangkok and surrounding provinces commencing tomorrow.

At least the PTT petrol station between Army Golf club and Lad Pla Khao road has to be shut down for security reason. It is jsut hte mater of time when all PTT petrol stations near the risky area have to be shut down.

Now the owners of Taxi pools and Taxi Cooperatives decide to keep their taxi cars sinside the depot on 13-14 Mar 2010 ... sice they fear that those UDD men are going to seize their taxi to use as taxi bombs ... or beocme the obtacle agaisnt Army ...
