CCTV9英语新闻11月：反政府抗议活动在泰国继续（在线收听）

Anti-government protests in Thailand have entered a 7th day, since more than 100 thousand people massed in the capital Bangkok on November 24th. "Red-shirt" protesters have now launched their own demonstrations, in support of Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra.

The red-shirts say the government is democratically elected by the people, and they will defend it against the mass demonstrations launched by the opposition "yellow shirts". The anti-government protesters have blocked a government complex and caused traffic jams in the capital.

"Yellow shirt" organisers say Sunday will be their "victory day," and are calling on followers to seize all state ministries and telecommunication agencies. Protest leader Suthep Thaugsuban told demonstrators on Friday night that a group of protesters would seize the Prime Minister’s offices on Sunday.

Earlier in the day, protesters forced their way into the grounds of Thailand’s army headquarters, asking the military to support their increasingly aggressive campaign to topple the prime minister.

Another crowd of protesters staged a rally outside the headquarters of Yingluck’s Pheu Thai party, where hundreds of riot police stood guard to prevent them from entering.
