The lack of accuracy in counting the dead would complicate the matter when it comes to distribution of compensation, admit officials.

My Better Half Jim is from Thailand..
We knew the little Prince who died…. Jims family in general were safe thank god.
This is just a terrible End to A terrible year and I for opne can not wait for it to be over.
This year alone I lost in the following order:
My 4 year old Dog, My Uncle, My Grandmother and my Father….
To say the least I want this year to be over
We have donated money to the Reliefe funds
but still my heart aches….
I wish everyone a MUCH better New Year
Antonia
