Another international tourist, who was in Chinatown in Bangkok at the time told ANI how everyone was panicking the second tremors were felt.”I was actually in Chinatown, which is another place to shop. All of a sudden, the floor started moving, so I was looking down, and then everybody started screaming, panicking, and everybody tried to exit the market in these little narrow passages,” the tourist, John said.Remembering the collapse of buildings around them, he added, “We were all pretty scared, running, screaming, pushing to get out of the building. Nothing happened in that market in Chinatown. But as we can see here in Chatuchak, it was a different story. I’m not too sure what building that was. It was under construction and, I guess, 30 storeys high. We saw the pictures of the collapse, so I’m sure there’s a lot of people under this rubble.”Earlier, the under construction building collapsed in front of JJ Mall in Chatuchak market in Thailand’s capital after the 7.7 earthquake which occurred in Myanmar’s Mandalay and felt across Thailand, China and Vietnam.
