A report in today's Bangkok post with regard to a rally in Bangkok got my attention. PTV, private TV, sprang into action and erected a stage in Sanum Luang at the site of Traditional Thai Sports Festival , which had to be canceled due to their actions.
However things got a bit unruly and apparently bottles were thrown at the police, and the PTV executives asked the demonstrators not to attack the police as they said it might be used as an excuse to break up the protest.
personally i think it would be good cause, not just an excuse!
Since the rally organised by PTV ( set up by a group of former Thai Rak Thai executives) and they were handing out literature with Mr Thaksins image on, i think they were very lucky not to be arrested for holding a political rally, but i think the police were sensible not to make them into martyrs
