Los78 Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 (edited) Its so nice of PAD (People Against Democracy) to give us NO notice about where they will be protesting and what roads they will be blocking in tomorrows protests. Nothing like random traffic gridlock....... in addition to the normal traffic gridlock.... Edited August 25, 2008 by Los78 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man River Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Right now, in Bangkok, this is the main story among Thai's. If you aren't getting ready to leave your house, you are talking to people getting ready to leave their houses. It has been years since a demonstration has attracted so much interest. I hope it remains peaceful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it remains peaceful. I do too. A seriously violent incident might finally bring about a new coup. And very likely the end of democracy as it is currently practiced in Thailand for a long long time. I don't think the PPP people want this. Who does?

bulmercke Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Tomorrow (Tuesday) there's also a rally being held by pro-Thasin/Samak supporters near Chatuchak - Bangkok Is it merely co-incidental that perhaps the PADs biggest gathering for a long time will be held the same day? I don't think so. Who knows whether pro-Thasin-Samak supporters have been organised and given the green light to unleash unbridled violence on PAD supporters somwhere at some time during the day. What happened a few weeks ago in Udon Thani springs to mind. Could get nasty again tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this time, there are usually only about a dozen people leftover from the night shift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
