I got the catalog 2012 from IKEA already 2 weeks ago by mail(with very competitive prices).
IKEA has also donated 10 million Baht for the flood victims with many useful donations of blankets and other stuff to follow. Wisely they donate all to Mae Fah Luang Foundation and the Red Cross I think.


According to my sources its apparently 20 million Baht:

"In Thailand millions of people are being displaced due to the worst flooding in decades. The IKANO Group will donate 20 million THB to Thai foundation Mae Fah Luang Foundation, who will use the money for immediate help to flood victims and for longer term support to families to build up their lives again. Additionally, they are donating blankets, cups and plates, which will be distributed to affected and hard reached areas. Co-workers have also decided to donate money designated for a co-worker event to the above mentioned foundation.
The first IKEA store in Thailand is planned to open on 3 November and the IKANO Group still plans to proceed with this, although without a grand opening or special celebrations."

Would love to see them rip this idea to shreds in a "scientific" way!

PM caught crying due to stress from flooding crisis :blink:

Crying because she is feeling sorry for the flood victims and the horridness of the situation many people are in, or crying because she is feeling sorry for herself that she has to deal with this and her underlings are not handling it.
I'd say its crocodile's tears, or possibly posing for the "chance" photograph some lucky photographer happened to take.
