Power cuts and demonstrations back the last few days.
IMF have ordered the Govt. to raise taxes under the bail-out terms,
and the proposal for income tax is from 5% to 36%…That’s such a shame, we had such a good time there last month.

From what I can see it’s much lower key than last time. Keep and eye on the FCDO advice qc, if the advice changes and you still decide to go have a look at Battleface insurance. I’ll get my trip report on in the next day or two.
Thanks – I will @strickers.
Btw – I’ve sent you a message on Flyertalk asking for some info when you have a minute.

My brother is – but also, please don’t be alarmed! The “bother” is more
day-to-day stuff for homes/shopping, etc. I’m sure your trip will be wonderful!From my driver, ‘There was a one protest from the Buddhist Monk. It won’t affect for the tourists’
Thank you both – we will be going ahead with our trip.

…said the driver that relies on tourism.
It won’t be pleasant, FCDO advice will change. Good luck. Don’t forget insurance.
