Thailand's pro-democracy group "People's Alliance for Democracy" (PAD) led a protest against the government a week ago and the clash between the pro and against government groups left one person dead.
The PAD played a role in removing Thailand's ex Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra from his post 2 years ago, and now they're demanding the resignation of the current Prime Minister Samak Sundaravej.
The group has support of some of the ruling elite and fervent following in Bangkok, but little support from most of rural Thailand, which voted strongly for Mr. Samak.

Hopefully this situation calms down. No one wants to see it blow up and get out of hand.
