There’s “pro-democracy”… | 18.03.07

And there’s pro-democracy.

The Thai media is so rotten that when reading the “pro-democracy” description, one has to ask whether it means pro-coup or anti-coup, junta-hugging or junta-hating.

Anyway, here’s an anti-coup, junta-hating kind of pro-democracy protest:

Anti-coup groups staged a rally at Sanam Luang yesterday to renew their attacks against the Sept 19 coup and vowed to continue their protest today outside the residence of Privy Council president Prem Tinsulanonda. Statesman Gen Prem is among the key figures targeted by pro-democracy groups.

They allege he played an active role in opposing deposed prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra, and was influential in securing the appointment of current Prime Minister Surayud Chulanont.
