Even at the joint session of houses some speakers said they once shared the views of the PAD, but turned away.

Thitinan Pongsudhirak’s analysis “The tyranny of a PAD-led minority” in the Bangkok Post is striking:

“Yet this is the time for those myriad Thais – the silent majority – who never liked Mr. Thaksin then and despise Mr. Samak now – to come out and condemn the PAD’s blatant hijacking of Thailand’s democratic system.”

If only they had moderate leaders instead of those buffons - Sondhi, especially - they may have been able to take a truly non-violent path to victory.

The show can go on. With better hygiene. ;-) Problem solved ! ;-)
