'no' campaign demonstration

Campaigners for a 'no' vote in tomorrow's Thai referendum staged a demonstration outside Siam Center in downtown Bangkok this afternoon.

The consequences of a 'yes' vote are clear, but if the vote is 'no' the consequences are much more flexible and hence uncertain. Is that a fair choice?

Also, government spin is vilifying and restricting the 'no' campaign, while linking a 'yes' vote with ideal values (democracy, monarchy, and patriotism). Is that a fair contest?

In reality, a 'no' vote is a vote for democracy; it is a rejection of the 2006 coup d'etat, a rejection of military dictatorship.
