BANGKOK, Feb 2 — Thailand’s Foreign Ministry on Wednesday said it would send a second special flight to collect some one hundred Thai nationals caught in riot-torn Egypt on Thursday.
Ministry spokesman Thani Thongpakdi said 2,600 Thais remain in Egypt, but about 100 of them, mainly students and workers, asked the ministry to help bring them home.
Sixty-eight Thai nationals earlier stranded at Cairo airport because of violent protests there arrived in Thailand safely early Wednesday by a Thai International Airways (THAI) chartered flight from Amman after spending three difficult days at the airport because of a shortage of food.
