A woman in black among the PM's Phuket birthday non-well-wishers

Phuket Red Shirts Go Black for PM's Birthday

Tuesday, August 4, 2009
RED-SHIRT protesters on Phuket greeted the 45th birthday of Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva yesterday by dressing in black.

About 50 red shirts in black demanded that the PM stop working and call national elections.

The protesters met briefly at the Town Inn Hotel in central Phuket City about 5.30pm.

Some, like the woman in the photo above, carried signs saying: ''Stop working and hold an election now. Please do the right thing, not the wrong thing.''
