January

  • January 1 - Two more bomb blasts strike Bangkok just after midnight, injuring several people, including a foreign tourist whose legs are amputated in the blast. The explosions are near CentralWorld shopping mall, where just hours before thousands of people had gathered for a New Year's Eve countdown celebration and been told to disperse by authorities after seven bombs went off in various parts of the city earlier in the evening.
  • January 10 - Thailand's post-coup leaders revoke the diplomatic passport of ousted PM Thaksin Shinawatra and tell local media not to report his comments.
  • January 14 - A buddhist man has been beheaded and two others shot in Yala province, Southern Thailand. A handwritten note was found saying "We will kill all Thai Buddhists." Another man was shot dead in a separate attack. A police officer told the Reuters news agency that the note left by the body was signed by a group that called itself the Pattani Fighters, a reference to one of the region's troubled provinces.
  • January 14 - A collision between two trains south of Bangkok leaves 3 dead and about 70 injured. A Bangkok-bound train took the wrong track and hit an oncoming service near the resort town of Hua Hin.
