Protesters must keep showing restraint


Protesters must keep showing restraintPro-democracy protesters take part in a demonstration in Bangkok on March 13. afpA group of anti-establishment protesters, calling itself the People Go Network (PGN), has defied police warnings not to camp overnight in front of Government House, and are settling in for a long stay at that very spot. Interestingly, the demand for reform of the monarchy, which is one of the priority demands of the Ratsadon group, was not mentioned. The movement itself is also suffering from internal conflict and its key leaders have been remanded in prison on lese majeste charges. Only Piyarat was spared the lese majeste charge. The protesters' mentor, exiled former Thammasat lecturer Somsak Jeamteerasakul, said later that protests without leaders do not work and urged the protesters to return home, regroup and start over.
