the land Of Snarls - Bangkok lost?

the vid above shares the MEGa Mall- Central world being burn by looters .
much a memories linger at this place whe we used to sip coffe, have chats and people watch..

word has it that it may take a year to repair and rebuilt the damaged parts
hopefully all is not lost.. and life takes a sensible return again to
Krungthep

the last few months saw the land of Smiles getting a lot of Snarls
how will this be for the man in the street...in Bangkok
a city thats been plagued by constant riots..demonstrations..and every perversive imaginable political stream..wonder if its it is coming from a once deposed authority?
