Bangkok is bracing for more unrest after the Thai prime minister rejected an offer by anti-government protesters to end their demonstrations in return for fresh elections within 30 days. Instead, Abhisit Vejjajiva reiterated in a nationally televised address on Sunday that the authorities will retake the main protest site of the so-called red shirts in Bangkok's main shopping area of Ratchaprasong. "There will be a retaking of Ratchaprasong, but the process, measures, how and when it will be done, we cannot disclose because it depends on several things," Abhisit said with the army chief, General Anupong Paojinda, by his side.
