Witness location : Bangkok (Thailand) (662 km S from epicenter)

Time : T0+ 195 min

Was on top floor of Intercontinental hotel (37th) sitting by the window. Initially felt a head spin and I honestly thought it may have been my Long Island Ice Tea. I looked out at the horizon (like for sea-sickness) to steady my head and then looked inside the lounge again and could see other guests suddenly griping their chairs and all could clearly feel it. 
The shaking and swaying lasted a good 30 seconds plus.
First time and very frightened as I had no idea if it would stop, reduce or increase in intensity. 
Up on the top floor not much you can really do....
