Asia, Thailand, Bangkok, Street protests, About 80 000 Red Shirt protesters have now not only encircled Government House, but also the residence of Privy Council president Gen. Prem Tinsunalonda in their attempt to oust him from power, as they accuse him to be the man behind the 2006 military coup, and the dissolution of the People Power Party (PPP). The atmosphere is still very tense, but so far no violence has been reported. Nattawut Saikua, one of the leaders of the Red Shirt movement, speaks to the crowd in front of Gen Prem’s residence. 8/4/2009, ┬й2009, Nick Nostitz/Agentur Focus
