No one touching this one?

I'm just surprised it has survived for over 2 hours!

I guess Suthep will not be blocking any voting venues in the north come Feb. 2nd.

"And here we are. Sukumvit Street blocked, every major intersection converted into a dormitory for the demonstrators."

"And the West is listening to this crap."

The lack of interest in this is possibly because nobody's interested in what this clown has to say! It is just regurgitated rhetoric that we've all been hearing for the past few weeks/months, nothing new at all. He's jumping on the media bandwagon for the sake of something to publish for his own benefit.

He also likes to gratuitously exaggerate; there is only one part of Sukhumvit that is blocked, and only one intersection out of many that has protesters sleeping in the streets. No "dormitory's" have been constructed in Sukhumvit.

And when a professional journalist uses the word "crap" in a serious article he instantly loses credibility in many people's views.

Amongst all the regurgitated rhetoric I have been reading throughout most of this, I saw this piece as a real "Man Bites Dog" story.

Ploenchit, an extension of Sukhumvit, is, pretty much a campground, from Henry Dunant, to National Stadium, from the Princess' digs, down to Chula. And, then there's Lumpini Park.
