March 23, 20251 yr How did this pass me by...I'm in BKK as is @reader and I hadn't heard about this https://loyaltylobby.com/2025/03/23/mass-panic-at-bangkoks-mbk-shopping-mall-sparks-renewed-tourist-safety-concerns/?omhide=true🤷♂️
March 23, 20251 yr Active Members I have been to MBK multiple times and never witnessed any violence. But I am shocked that @reader missed this story! 😗
March 24, 20251 yr This partcular story may have escaped virtually every poster's notice. Although only partly related to MBK, previous incidents of extreme violence between two particular Bangkok educational institutions and the reasons they continue to keep hjappening have certainly been reported in these columns. This is a long post from 2021 outlining in detail the death of one student killed while helping his mother only because he was from a different college. There is no need to read the article because the attached video titled "Dying to Gradiuate" in it basically explains it all in detail - https://www.channelnewsasia.com/watch/dying-graduate-1511241?cid=fbins What is horrific is that some students are encouraged to engage in violence against students from the other college by graduates from decades ago (see video starting at 20:06).
