Fascinating goings on in Thai capital Bangkok!

Tanks outside government house.

It appears that while Thai PM Thaksin Shinawatra is being booed on the streets of New York, there's some sort of military coup going on back home!

Apparently a new PM has been appointed (Surayuth - head of the privy council) Rumours are flying at the moment but with privy council involvement, it means The King is behind it!!!!! There's not much accurate stuff reported at the moment but I'll try to get some sense from my friends there!

Latest news is the Thai satellite company UBC has stopped all foreign news chanels from broadcasting! Thaksin owns it (UBC) by the way!

More news when I get it!
