"I just couldn't believe what was happening before my eyes," Boree Carlsson said from a hotel near Phuket's Patong beach in Thailand. "As I was standing there, a car actually floated into the lobby and overturned because the current was so strong," said the 45-year-old Swede.

"Nothing like this has ever happened in our country before," said Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra of Thailand where the death toll was 310.

I called that crisis centre and so far they don't have any news because they can't make any contact with hotels/resorts in Phuket.
I wonder if any of you know a resort called "Disit resort", by the cost of Phuket and if anyone knows if that resort is close to the beach or if anybody has any news concerning that area or resort.
Any help would be much appreciated.
The ministery of foreign affairs overhere told me it will probably take up to 3 days before they have any news about my parents.

I will be there on Wed....... if there is anything I can do to help him me up on ICQ .

They say that area got hit hard... I was just there a couple of months ago

Hey man! Any word?

Sure hope things work out and they get in touch with you. Since I seen your post this morning its all I have thought about really. My heart goes out to you and your family. Lets hope for a speedy resolution.

colpanic · 12-26-2004, 05:31 PM

Since a few of you seem to know a lot about whats going on out there.. I'm trying to find someone as well..

A good friend of mine went home to visit her family in Georgetown Penang, Malaysia.. Apparently it is an island off the coast. I found one report that said it got hit, but does anyone know how bad?

Also, if anyone can suggest a way that I could try to find her I would really appreciate it.

I think communications are still totally fucked up. I've tried reaching some friends in that part of the world and no response.

Screaming · 12-26-2004, 09:03 PM

well i hope they are fine i am sure they will be, try to stay calm, i know it is hard but freaking isnt going to help right now, try to distract yourself if you can

Shit, they just showed Chennai India on CNN where my friend lives. Completely devastated.

Ultra,

i am wishing for the best.
keep us posted.

KRL · 12-26-2004, 10:02 PM

My friend in India just e-mailed back. They got hit hard. His home had a concrete wall that held and protected them. Other parts of his community were devastated.

UltraSonic · 12-27-2004, 12:46 AM

Just got out of bed, didn't get much sleep. Didn't get any news yet, i got help from a gfy member who knows someone upthere, i got contact info and i tend to go upthere if i didn't get any news by this time tomorrow. GFY has been a great help in this matter and i would like to thank everybody uphere for the support and help. I know this sounds corny but it touches me how people you have never seen try their best to help out. I am still in believe they survived and that they just have no way to contact me due to lack of communication infrastructure working right now.
Anyhow, i'll keep you all posted, that's the least i can do for the people that helped out.

Again, thx people.

I've had a phone call with someone in Penang, a contact from a gfy member. Penang doesn't seem to be hit very hard, i hope this helps.

UltraSonic · 12-27-2004, 07:56 AM

The travel agency just called me to say that they had contact with the resort. At this point they are still in the process of getting everything ready to get the tourists out of the resort, either replace them or bring them back but they had no word on my parents although they assured me they didn't have any casualtie reports of people who used that travel agency.

Looking good.

UltraSonic, I'm hoping you get to talk to them soon! God Bless!

UltraSonic · 12-27-2004, 08:21 AM

What a freakin phonecall......

Just recieved a phonecall from somebody talking (bad) english saying "i got a christmass present for you" and he passed on my mom.

Both are ok, my mother was in her room when shit happened but my father wasn't, it took 16 hours for them to find eachother back. But both are ok and in good health.
They are gonna stay in a bedroom from a resident couple they got to know upthere, they don't have all their clothes and stuff anymore but still have all papers and money and bankcards.

God bless gfy members for being so helpfull, i owe you all, BIGTIME.

I can honestly say this is the best day of my life.

THANK YOU ALL VERY VERY VERY MUCH.

If he's in bangkok there shouldnt be any problems. It's only in Phuket and that's like 600 km away from bangkok

I am sure your parents have one helluva story.

Well, for me it's ok now, i know they are both in good health but other gfy members are still looking for people, maybe they can hit you up if that's ok for you.

Definitely. I didn't know he was over there or I would have let you know sooner...but I am so glad your mum and dad are well. My whole family was awaiting news, and everyone is thankful it turned out well.

I was almost in tears when I read that your parents were OK! That's definitely the best Christmas present you could ever ask for.

maxxxxx · 12-27-2004, 12:53 PM

Fantastic, I'm happy to hear they are fine! I hope that neither you nor anyone else who was concerned with your parents' fate will forget to donate some money to the victims. This disaster has mainly hit people who were already poor before.
