COUP RUMOURS

PAD bracing itself for crackdown

By The Nation

Govt set to declare state of emergency on the Suvarnabhumi and Don Muang
airports, as coup rumors continue to swirl

PAD protesters are bracing themselves for police operations to dislodge
them from the Suvarnabhumi and Don Muang airports as the government
is reportedly set to enforce a state of emergency in the two areas.

Protest leaders at Government House surreptitiously told their followers that
"this may be our last night". With the leaders having always said the "war"
would end in a couple of days, that can be interpreted as a positive statement.
But with the state of emergency imminent, the remark also sounded ominous.

Protesters at three rally grounds _ Don Muang, Suvarnabhumi and Government House _
were also advised to take off their yellow shirts and put on ones with different colors
if they were to leave the areas.

Prime Minister Somchai Wongsawat is scheduled to give another TV address
around 8.30 pm, sources said.

Public Health Minister Chalerm Yoobamrung confirmed that the Cabinet
resolved to declare state of emergency over the Suvarnabhumi and Don Mueang airports.
