Largest Red Shirt rally ever set for Friday

The UDD is calling all Red Shirts to join the "largest Rally ever" at Ratchaprasong/Siam Square, beginning at 9 am Friday. "We will celebrate Songkran [Thai New Year, April 13-15] and victory," said one UDD leader. The Red Shirts claim they will "intensify protest activities" in a last ditch attempt to force the government to it's knees.

In statements here and here, the government has said that it will not use force to disperse the protestors in front of the mall, despite declaring a State of Emergency last night.

  1. Sara, "Red Shirt" is new to me. What do they want in Thailand?
