    25th March a warning?

    The wife's just had a call from her bro, a policeman, and he's given a latent warning not to go near Sanam Luang on the 25th as the police are expecting a bit of bother.

    These 'civil disobedience' issues are all about timing and with Songkran approaching I suppose the folks want to try and make some ground before they head off for the provinces and kill each other on the roads.

    Keep in mind they can't let this go on too long because it's a 'World Cup' year and everyone has to be settled by June.

    I heard today that the demo march was starting in silom somewhere.
    Better it start than end there.

    I cant wait to watch. Really this time its organized and peaceful. Who said to be alert? Toxin and his cronies. These are people whose family income is quite high coming out. They are pissed off. Its quite simple really. Now its down to I pay **% tax and you pay nothing. To say nothing of selling off the government's commission IE the satellites he sold off. That they had names bestowed by the king seems small to me but to my wife and her friends thats a damn big deal.
    I wanna watch.

    ^ fuck it - i think blood shed is abt the only thing that will make them wake up to the fact that the whole issue is a BIG FUCKN DEAL!

    not that i wish ill on anyone (well, apart from HArry that is!) but it seems like the only way to shake them out of their apathy








    problem is - it would prolly play righ tinto toxin's hands!

    The Nation is now reporting on its website that the march planned for today has been postponed until tomorrow.
    Today they will stay camped outside of government house and tomorrow they will march on SUKHUMVIT
