Thaksin announce to his followers in a radio broadcast yesterday that he was worried for their safety.
The current government plans to implement the Internal Security Act from Saturday until Tuesday in Bangkok’s Dusit district, where United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD) demonstrators were expected to congregate at Government House on Sunday.
