It is said that the explosion was terrorist act. The explosion place is familiar place for me which I drove mycar in front hundred times. The Erawan shrine is located in the land of a hotel which owner is a friend of myfamily. This place is believed a holy place for praying for peace and happiness. It attracts many tourists tovisit and during rush hour it is crowded with many people. I cannot hold my anger to perpetrators of thecruel attack that aimed for putting many people’s lives in danger at busy period.
I already reside and do business in Thailand for 18 years. I have been nourished and I owned a lot to this1

country during over that period. Thailand is my second hometown, also a country of my friends. During this18 years, thailand have experienced Tom Yam Khung crisis, SAAS, Tsunami, large scale demonstration,
military coup, history drought. However, despite exacerbated troubles, Thailand economy has shown very
stable-growth in GDP, the number of tourists, foreign direct investment, and the number of companies, andit continues to be one of commercial center of Southeast Asia. I can see it changing every day.
Thailand has made remarkable progress in its development in over 18 year. Bangkok people’s life almost
reached to the advanced nations already. Therefore I am confident of the strong potential development ofThailand. As a good friend of Thai people, I will continue to contribute to the development of Thailand
through our business. ‘2
