He said he went to the scene to observe the situation.

Yesterday, I was driving N on Vipavadee Rangsit and saw no less than 28 of the big double decker buses with a (police?) escort of some sort heading South. I figured something was afoot.

There's a big crowd of protesters about 100 yards from my school. According to the head of EP they took control of a state tv channel by force very early this morning. Period 9 is canceled today and we've been told to phone ahead tomorrow to see if school is open.
