APEC Holiday in Bangkok, Thailand?

Transcript of the above video:

As the title of this video suggests, we are discussing the APEC Summit, that is the Asia Pacific Economic Council or whatever, Summit that is being held here in Bangkok, Thailand.

A lot of big name international players are coming in, a lot actually. It's pretty staggering when you actually sort of think about it. But yeah, a lot of big name players are coming into Bangkok over the course of this forthcoming week and yeah there are holidays because unfortunately they are blocking off major segments of Bangkok. It's not going to be possible to easily travel from certain parts of the city to the other and Government Offices are shutting down here in Bangkok. We are closing because most of my staff who live in different parts of town, it is just going to be almost infeasible to the point of impossible to get to the office. So, this is kind of where things stand. 

I know it is probably a little bit frustrating for folks that are in countries where A) they don't have the number of holidays that Thailand generally has but then on top of that you get these holidays that just sort of pop up because the Government just kind of says so. On this one, it just kind of is what it is. I would ask for folks that are dealing with us to bear with us. We will try to get through this as quickly and efficiently as we can, get to the other side of it and get on with our lives.
