I must state that I never expected the Thai protesters to hold out as long as they have. It's been eleven days and the Thai PM hasn't managed to set foot back in his office yet. He has tried turning off the water supply to the premises, issued a 'State of Emergency' and offered to put forward a referendum to entice them to go home.
Not even a week of thunderstorms, rain and hail have weakened their resolve. You have to wonder how they are supporting their families and whether they will still have a job when they return back home.
There has been a lot of fighting, throwing bottles and even a few deaths by firearms (some university students were gunned down on route to parliament). So whats the PM doing about it you may ask? Considering lifting the 'State of Emergency' as nobody is taking any notice is about all.
Thank heavens the military haven't staged another coup... yet!
