Embassy warns Dutch about Bangkok
To the Dutch people staying in Bangkok:
Despite a number of promising developments, the political situation in Bangkok is currently still unpredictable. The demonstrators make no move to leave. There is a chance that individuals / factions will try to frustrate a final agreement between the government and red protesters by means of attacks. We therefore draw your attention to the fact that the travel advice of Foreign Affairs, implying that all non-essential journey to Bangkok are not recommended, will be maintained for the time being. You are strongly advised to avoid the area around the demonstration sites, especially the Ratchaprasong intersection, and Lumpini and to continue to monitor the news media closely.
Dutch embassy

.
Coincidentally, I just came from here / and do daily business in this area.
Yesterday, the control was tightened there if you have to enter or through the red zone.
All bags are / were checked for possible weapons.
What was striking yesterday was that the barricades have been reinforced and raised. Also with bag / ground bags.
It is completely quiet and safe there.
Only dress in a neutral color.
People are super friendly and are sometimes shy about a smile or an innocent chat.
I think it's ridiculous to always blame all red for everything.
Feel free to come on holiday, because Bangkok is so big that you can avoid these zones.

Feel free to ask me for more information.

@peter.bkk What I don't understand is that the embassy warns and the Dutch in Thailand say "Come on!!!"
Not to promote a doomsday scenario, but where will you be when a “Come on, Dutchman, who has taken your opinion to heart” is shot?
I understand that you consider it safe, but I would never want to take that responsibility by more or less saying that it is "safe".
@ peter.bkk
I agree with Thailandganger. The official authorities are (partly) responsible for the safety of tourists in Bangkok.
It is very easy to say otherwise, especially if you cannot be held responsible for it.
