Thai govt to talk with Toxin
[Straits Times] THAILANDŽS government said on Wednesday that it was open to talks with ousted Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra to end a fresh surge in political unrest that threatens to undo efforts to revive a slumping economy.
Thousands of Thaksin protesters have surrounded the seat of government in Bangkok for the past week in a bid to force out Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva, the latest escalation in ThailandŽs three-year-old political crisis.
