There is a very nice Webcam on the roof of the Landmark Hotel, which shows both sides of the Sukhumvit Road (approximately Soi 7). The Webcam is turning around every x seconds.

We will see, which impact the “protests” will have.

Starting from today, the green mini buses in Bangkok are “past”. After a 5 years transition period, the drivers of the remaining green buses could loose their license and get arrested if they still use their green buses.

WHAT A SHAME! I loved the green buses, because every drive has been an “special adventure” which costs 6.50 Baht.……. Anyway: in the past their have been similar announcements before, which have not been implemented so far……

Based on comments in their database, the well known website “TripAdvisor” has published a list with the “Top Ten” of the “dirtiest Hotels” in Asia.

Dear Friends,
I am back from New York where I met with my publisher, editor, publicist and people who are producing the Vincent Calvino film. On 6th November Grove Press released Paying Back Jack. The reviewer of I Love Mystery said, “This story is so tightly woven and entertaining it is hopeless to try to put it down. Not only was it new and fresh, but I feel like I have taken a trip to the underbelly of Thailand. It is impossible not to love this book.” Things are looking very good for the film to start production next year.

By the end of November, The Corruptionist, the 11th novel in the Vincent Calvino series will be out in Thailand, along with The Vincent Calvino Reader’s Guide. Once the book has been delivered, I can be ordered from my publisher’s website.

Meanwhile, technology rolls on and that means, in this case, some good news. The Land of Smiles trilogy can be downloaded for the Kindle reader. I blogged about A Killing Smile, A Bewitching Smile and A Haunting Smile today. http://www.cgmoore.com/blog/index.asp
