D-Day in BKK...what happened through out the day????
I was anxiously following online news portal for the updates on the D-Day demonstration by the reds in royal plaza,downtown Bangkok! Bad weather does not deteriorate the demonstrator spirit numbered at around 30,000 by the nationals security agency! The national security agency lead by DPM suthep deployed about 6,500 men to maintain law & order!!The leaders from the reds mostly notably nattawut ,jatuporn & veera speaks from the main rally site stage and demands the abbisit to dissolve the house immediately & revert back to the 1997 constitution!It's was a day of waiting for both the police,anti riot police, soldiers etc etc against the reds!
Luckily no untoward accident happened and the reds cordoned to themselves within the royal plaza compound rally site...sitting..& listening to their leaders continuously attacking the Privy council & abbisit lead government! The climax of the day was when their beloved leader khun Thaksin made a live video at 8.35pm to address his supporters! He said he is making this call somewhere nearby Thailand and he will see them soon......to the cheers of the strong crowd numbered at 50,000 now!He said....the government is not doing any good to the Thai's....poor people is growing in number.....economy situation is no where improving....indeed worsen! He added.....I would love to lead Thailand again....for a better future for everyone! All the protesters dispersed peacefully about midnight after their leader Nattawut makes a final speech to thank the crowd for their support! It seems like Thaksin now has a slight advantage against his opponent khun abbisit......the naming of a new police chief is still unresolved! Senior senators has made call for him to dissolve the house for a fresh election! His ally newin is planning something quietly.......and seems now the rift among them is widening!
If i am correct....a new general election is looming around....possibly before year end! Abbisit is definitely struggling to hold on to power....its collation government is weakening as the days pass off! he might be a smart fella....but Thaksin is richer and smarter....far more experienced in handling the complicated politics of Thailand!! Just pray for the best for the Thai people.......may the land of smile... smile forever! Or at least as long as possible!
