Bangkok going in a bang


This was the scene of Bangkok a month ago. People were going about their business, the streets although jam but still there was law and order.



Soldiers drive their tanks on the road in Bangkok. Thailand's embattled government, humiliated by demonstrators who shut down a 16-nation Asian summit, declared a state of emergency in the capital Sunday in an attempt to stem the tide of protest across the country.

The violence are real. Let's hope this ends soon.
