Thailand still reeling form Coup

If, one recalls in the last September the Thai government was overthrown by the military leadership which then promised to hold new elections as soon as possible. The coup itself was a action taken by the military to topple a supposedly corrupt government as the military stated was at odds with the population.
However the interesting thing is that almost a year later the government is still in the hands of the military and now the government really does seem to be at odds with the population especially since the number of protests have increased over the last months. The military government answers to those allegations by issuing statements such as "Sansern said there were 3,000-5,000 protesters, and said that most were "misinformed" about the political situation, and that some were paid to take part."

This most recent Demonstration that now enjoys so much attention left around 270 Demonstrators injured from fighting with the police. This Demonstration was led by a number of Senior officials of the now dissolved Thai Rak Thai party which was also the party of the Prime Minister before he was replaced by the Military government.
