Flashermac Posted December 1, 2013 Report Share Posted December 1, 2013 Protesters take control of Thai PBS A group of anti-government protesters have on Sunday morning taken control of Thai PBS telvision station, People's Democratic Reform Committee (PDRC) spokesman Samran Rodphet said. Mr Samran said the protesters moved from the government complex on Chaeng Wattana Road to Thai PBS station on Vibhavadi Rangsit Road. They were led by Sakolthee Pattiyakul, one of the PDRC core members. The anti-government group told Thai PBS representatives to televise speeches made by PDRC co-leaders and programmes of Democrat Party-owned Blue Sky satellite TV channel. Thai PBS had also been told not to broadcast announcements made by the government and the Centre for Administration of Peace and Order (Capo). Mr Samran asked the anti-government demonstrators to help prevent police from arrest PDRC co-leaders at different rally sites. "If officers approach us, hug them. If that's not enough, kiss them in the cheeks," the PDRC spokesman told the protesters. http://www.bangkokpost.com/breakingnews/382542/anti-government-protesters-take-control-of-thai-pbs-television-station Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WorldFun Posted December 1, 2013 Report Share Posted December 1, 2013 "Ramkhamhaeng University rector cooperates with soldiers to guard relocating of students left inside campus to Wat Praram 9 (temple) /MCOT" this seems like best news of the day. 2 real heros (ram manager & military staff) if possibly saving just 1 life then it deserved respect not all hope is lost for the people^^ long live the king Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobbledonk Posted December 1, 2013 Report Share Posted December 1, 2013 They showed the attack on the bus and the cab on tonite's news here in Oz - disgusting. Not as disgusting as the red shirt firebombers in 2010, but nasty nonetheless - old people cowering on the floor of the bus and I can only imagine how those poor bastards in the cab must have felt.
