Hope everyone is okay and it's not too serious.

What can people expect when the same democratically elected party is stripped of power for the 5th(?) time in 13(?) years, and paid thugs roam the street and offices demanding all votes are N/A. (a very quick, basic summize of the situation).

Democratic elections. Respect the winner. That's all the people want.

The Facebook link above seems to reference Chatuchak Plaza, and talks about a fire...but not seem to mention bomb. Multiple photos... lots of flames.
