    Rap against Dictatorship: The rappers taking on Thailand's leaders

    Thai group Rap Against Dictatorship has the pulse on the youth of the country, many of whom have been protesting for months against the government, demanding change.

    Their lyrics and videos have shocked many in the establishment, and has even led to their latest video being banned by YouTube.

    One of them, known as Hockey, says the group is trying to highlight the problems with the political establishment - both before the coup and after.

    Lyrics

    Are you, are youComing to the tree?They strung up a manThey say who murdered threeStrange things did happen here, no stranger would it beIf we met at midnight in the hanging treeAre you, are youComing to the tree?Where dead man called outFor his love to fleeStrange things did happen here, no stranger would it beIf we met at midnight in the hanging treeAre you, are youComing to the tree?Where I told you to runSo we'd both be freeStrange things did happen here, no stranger would it beIf we met at midnight in the hanging treeAre you, are youComing to the tree?Wear a necklace of hopeSide by side with meStrange things did happen here, no stranger would it beIf we met at midnight in the hanging treeAre you, are youComing to the tree?Where I told…

    I have been to the Hanging Tree, it is in the Thammasat campus & quite easy to find. Except it isn't, because it is no longer there- it was discretely removed, a while after the Thammasat massacre. A bit like a certain Democracy plaque in Bangkok. This seems to be the Thai way of doing things, or rather not doing things. Sweep it under the carpet, out of sight out of mind.
