Thailand Prime Minister Confident about Protest

Prime Minister Adhist Vajjajiva will address Thailand in a special televised program on Monday night at 8:45p.m. The Prime Minister chose tonight to address the nation because red shirt protestors are expected to stage a mass rally on Wednesday.

The Prime Minister will express the governmental position in reference to the massive protest to take place on Wednesday. Security agencies met this morning to prepare for the red shirt protest.

The Prime Minister is confident in the authority’s ability to keep the protest under control. He also expressed that the Thai government will not be declaring a state of emergency due to the protest.
