Meanwhile in Bangkok

Radio stations closed. Political activity barred. The king has blessed the ruling council. The US has only offered muted criticism. ASEAN has yet to speak and may tacitly accept the government as a fait accompli.

Now the promised civilian prime minister looks likely to be retired general. The "Freedom Agenda" marches on!

And in what may be a fatal blow to liberty the junta has now banned go-go dancers from dancing near tanks or handling weapons. I assume that the second restriction applies to both rifles and guns!
