  Meanwhile, M.R. Sukhumbhand was quoted by AP as saying that there has
been a big change in Thai attitudes towards Burma.

"The embassy saga took place right at the nerve centre of Thai society
and the Thai policy," M.R. Sukhumbhand said. "The message has been
brought home that no-one is immune from the symptoms of political
conflict in Myanmar.""Many Thais, including the media, before preferred
us not to intervene in Myanmar's domestic affairs. But now people are
saying, 'Hey, we have to do something'," the deputy foreign minister was
quoted as saying.
