Am I the only one who is finding Thai politics hard to take seriously? According to the latest reports:
About 2,000 red-shirted protesters loyal to the exiled former premier Thaksin Shinawatra marched through the convention centre…
Many analysts and observers fear that more violence and a possible civil war are now on the cards. Clashes between a new force – calling themselves the Blue Shirts, a vigilante group headed by one of the government’s key allies…
Now the fear is that the Yellow Shirts – the Peoples’ Alliance for Democracy (PAD) – may take to the streets again to support the government, in the name of protecting the king.
I’m having a harder time yet taking US politics seriously…if only they were capable of choosing a colour of shirt as between themselves!
