zydeco Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 They should have the leaders of both rally groups out cleaning up the mess they made in person. It's the one thing that might unify all people in the kingdom. Suthep and Jutaporn cleaning toilets and YL and Abhisit raking up plastic garbage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomyummer Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Kudos to the army for clearing up Changwattana Road which is now open. Send the clean up bill to Suthep and the rogue monl's temple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gabruce Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 I thought Suthep had publicly promised to clean up after his group Be fair now. Both the redshirts and the pdrc were sent home quickly. There was no option for staying a few days to cleanup. Yes, he didn't keep his promise because he was prevented. Just the way things turned out.
