Protestors to end demo in Bangkok commercial centre
Thousands of anti-government demonstrators, facing threats of arrest, announced today they would end their occupation of the Thai capital’s commercial centre but would continue their protest in another location in the city.
The decision appeared to head off a confrontation between the so-called Red Shirts and government forces, who said they were prepared to use tough measures to clear the protesters from the area of Bangkok, which they began occupying on Saturday.
