Hm ...since the army and police are government employees, does that mean they get Monday & Tuesday off too?

The clowns are the people that are giving holiday to government employees, but not to the average Thais. If you haven't noticed, only GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES will get to stay home Monday and Tuesday.

It will only keep government people away and safe at home. The average Thais without an inflated salary will still have to risk getting shot in the head by army snipers to earn their money.

..and on top, the Thai government has just blocked www.ireport.com (CNN's iReport). If you want to watch it from today onwards, you better move to North Korea or Myanmar.

For me too. The Thai Government has just blocked www.ireport.com

What's next? Kick out international media journalists? Arrest foreigners?

It has become "all or nothing" for both the parties now...

It Reds win they will hunt down each of the present government..

And govt is anyway going to do all it could to stop that happening...

The losers of this battle is surely not goin to have a further political career for sure....

There is a way out for both sides. Elections. Now. And the violence stops immediately because everyone will be out campaigning.

The government just declared a government holiday for Monday & Tuesday. The average Thai still has to go to work and risk being shot by army snipers in the head. Only government officials will get to stay safely at home. What a joke.

Now they're showing their true intentions. If they cared about every Thai, they would declare a national holiday, not just a public holiday.

Yet another brainfart idea by this government. Public holiday I suppose means banks will be closed as well? I have a wire transfer coming in for my 1-year visa extension. Carefully planned to arrive 1 day before the seasoning requirement by Thai Immigration. Now it will arrive 1 day late and I won't be able to renew my 1-year extension without leaving the country, paying for the airplane ticket, the new visa, hotel, etc. What a joke.

Instead of FIXING the problems, they are RUINING the country even more, since stock exchanges will also be closed.

Way to go, clowns.

Nice to see that your not worried about yourself and have the state of the country in mind.....Semms to me the only clowns are the farangs

Since it's only a holiday for government officials, the average Thai will still have to go to work. It just shows that the government only cares about themselves, not the average Thai, who still has to go to work and risk being shot in the head by army snipers.

Shame. Shame. Shame.

Central Bank and stock market top officials are having meeting after govt declares public holidays tomorrow and Tuesday. /via @tulsathit

Yeah, better have a meeting. The clowns are ruining the last economy still standing, banks and stocks.

And now this:

CRES freezes 106 bank accounts to cut support for red shirts

The Centre for Resolution of Emergency Situation declared that 106 bank accounts have been frozen as a measure to cut support for red-shirt protesters.

The CRES said the accounts include 13 firms.

Those whose bank accounts are frozen include red-shirt leaders and former Thai Rak Thai excutives.

Sends a strong message to foreign investors ...your money isn't safe in Thailand!! We can take it anytime!!
