They packed up bedding before handing over both the international and domestic airports to the authorities. The People's Alliance for Democracy (PAD) called off the protests and after a court banned Prime Minister Somchai Wongsawat from politics. The protests have left thousands of tourists stranded in Thailand. The country has lost millions of dollars in revenue. The PAD had been demanding the resignation of the prime minister, who they say is a proxy for deposed leader Thaksin Shinawatra. ________________________ rEAD ABOUT yu ram cha IN ASIA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
