The only killing that Buddha approves of is killing ANGER...

Therefore,

Having slain Anger, one sleeps in calm ease;
Having slain Anger, one does not sorrow
The killing of Anger, 0ohh Vasava
With its poisoned root and honeyed tip:
This is the killing, the Noble Ones approve.
For having slain that, one does not grieve.



---------------

Calm is his mind.
Calm is his speech.
Calm is his action.
So is the Tranquility;
So is the Equanimity;
of one freed by the Insight
of right Knowledge.





---------------------




One can only overcome anger with kindness.
One can only conquer evil with good..
One can only win the miser by generosity...
One can only convince the liar with truth....

Thai protesters criticise hospital evacuation
01 May 2010 - 07H28

AFP - Leaders of Thailand's "Red Shirt" protests slammed management at a Bangkok hospital Saturday, saying its chaotic evacuation of patients was a ploy to make the anti-government group look bad.
The Reds have faced heavy criticism after about 100 supporters raided Chulalongkorn hospital Thursday evening under the mistaken belief it sheltered security forces preparing a crackdown, following deadly street violence.
The 1,400-bed hospital evacuated most of its patients because of the incident, and Red leaders have apologised profusely.
"The hospital did not hear our apology. They dramatised the evacuation of patients, turning it into a tragedy to paint Red Shirt people as bad," Jatuporn Prompan, one of the group's core leaders, said in news conference.
"We have been made to look like terrorists and very soon the crackdown will begin," he added.
The Reds, who have occupied sections of Bangkok for over a month in their bid to force snap elections, have alleged the hospital was used in an April 22 grenade attack on a pro-government rally that killed one and wounded dozens.
The government said the grenades were fired from inside the Reds' camp -- an accusation the movement has denied.
Tensions are high in Bangkok following the worst political violence in almost two decades which has left 27 people dead and almost 1,000 injured this month in a series of bloody confrontations.
Thailand's Medical Council criticised the storming and asked protesters to respect medical personnel, while police said they would deploy 100 officers to the hospital to ensure neither security forces nor Reds use the grounds.
Many of the Reds come from Thailand's rural poor and urban working classes and seek the return of former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra, who was ousted in a 2006 coup and now lives overseas to avoid a jail term for corruption.
Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva vowed to prosecute those who were involved in the hospital incident.

HIGHWAY SHOWDOWN
Panel set up to oversee autopsy of slain soldier
By Pongphon Sarnsamak
The Nation
April 30, 2010

The Royal Thai Army Medical Department set up a neutral committee yesterday to oversee the autopsy on the body of Private Narongrit Sara, who was killed during violent clashes at the National Memorial in Don Muang on Wednesday.​

During the Wednesday fracas, 33-year-old Rajit Chantamun also sustained gunshot injuries to her right leg. This is the first time a female has been injured in the clashes between redshirt protesters and troops, the most recent of which wounded 18 people, of whom 16 are civilians and two soldiers.
Rajit is being treated at Bhumibol Adulyadej Hospital.
Bhumibol Adulyadej Hospital director Chupan Charnsamorn said seven victims of the recent clash were being treated at the hospital.
One of them is in ICU, having lost 5 litres of blood to internal bleeding in the abdomen, and a less serious wound in the back
He said the other six patients were mostly treated for broken bones or wounds caused by metal piercing, and should fully recover within a week.
Meanwhile, Narongrit died immediately at the scene of the clash and his corpse was moved to Phramongkutklao Hospital.
The soldier's younger sister Kansuda, during an interview on TV Thai, said Narongrit was preparing to take exams for the sergeant ranking on May 2.
Colonel Dr Piraphon Pokpong, head of the hospital's emergency department, said an autopsy would be conducted on the soldier's body at 10am today by five forensic experts from Siriraj Hospital, Chulalongkorn Hospital, Ramathibodi Hospital, Phramongkutklao Hospital as well as the Institute of Forensic Medicine. The Army's neutral panel will ensure transparency and accurate autopsy results.
Of the 16 civilians injured on Wednesday, two were severely wounded, with one sustaining injury in the abdomen and anoth�er to his chest. The two soldiers sustained injuries to their head and legs. Of the 18 victims, three have already been discharged from hospital.
Meanwhile, the Erawan Emergency Medical Centre reported on Tuesday that 80 people had been injured by the grenade attacks at Sala Daeng intersection on April 22, and 14 of the victims are still undergoing treatment.
So far, more than 1,000 people have been injured and 27 killed this month from bloody clashes.

There has been enormous media coverage
of red intrusion into Chulalongkorn Hospital.


A New Mandala reader has provided this alternative account:

Pure cunning of the state security apparatus and their army friends portrayed through the media as Red occupation of Chula Hospital. Here’s the truth from firsthand accounts, including a close friend currently at the protest site: on the morning of the 28 April the Director of Chula Hospital ordered the moving of patients out of two buildings to other hospitals without any reason. Outpatients was open as usual. In the evening Red Guards asked to check inside the hospital as two security guards at the hospital arrested them and then let them go. However, a group of soldiers ran from the hospital building and crossed the road toward Suriwong Road and later to rejoin an army site situated on Silom Road. Soldiers shot twelve rounds to scare the red guards who in turn then then ran back to the rally site. Morning 29 April, Hospital Director referred to a higher authority requesting to unblock the road and that there would not be any army or police around. The three core leaders (Jatupon, Wiira, and Nuttawut) agreed, even as it was apparent that there were no patients inside since midday the day before. This road is strategically vital because it connects to the back of the Red stage. But the director did not keep his word. In the evening, eye witness accounts noted around 400 heavily armed soldiers located near the protestors and inside the hospital building itself. There were no patients and all lights were turned off in these buildings. Then the army moved in close to the mouth of Silom Road: About 50 PAD simultaneously came to wave flags and taunted the protestors. The red guards then quickly replaced the barricades. The police and blue uniform special branch then ran across the road. It is clear that the final plot is being hatched: Newin’s thugs have now infiltrated the protestors because of the mixed colours and the army using Chulalongkorn University grounds and the Hospital as a base for massing forces for the final crunch. the final push will come from at least two sides, but through the rear with the help of the “Hospital” director and the black shirt thugs are armed to move in close to the stage. It is anticipated to come early in the morning before five AM because that is the time that the day volunteers replace the night protestors. Did this account get reported in the media?

Two core leaders of the Student Federation of Thailand have just been issued summons to the CRES headquarters at the 11th Infantry Regiment for 10am Sunday morning. The summons were hand-delivered by a group of policemen who arrived on their doorsteps at 6pm. I have just spoken to one of them on the phone, and got the impression that she didn’t really know what she was in for (as they told her nothing of reasons, but inquired as to whether she used the internet often. They also took her photo and some photos of her apartment.)


----------------

Wassana Nanuam, a Bangkok Post reporter and columnist specialising in military affairs, has “temporarily” left her job as a co-host of the “Lab Luang Prang” radio show on the state-controlled MCOT’s FM 100.5 MHz. Siam Report has the details, based on a report in the Thai language daily Khao Sod. Key excerpt:

Khao Sod says the reason Wassana stopped doing the program is because Suthep (Deputy PM, Security) ordered no interviews with “red soldiers”, only interviews with soldiers who support the government. Wassana thinks this situation doesn’t allow her to fulfill her duty as a reporter. Normally, Lab Luang Prang has balanced interviews with soldiers from both colors and sides. But when the government only allows interviews from one side, it doesn’t follow the program objective. It becomes a program that attacks the government opposition, and there are many of these kinds of programs already.


Wassana is not the only one in the media who has faced pressure and intimidation in recent days. Channel 3 reporter Thapanee Eiadseechai also got into hot water over her reporting of the grenade attacks at Silom on 22 April. As far as I know, what got her into trouble was a series of tweets (which have since been removed) on her twitter account documenting the confrontation between police forces and army forces. Khao Sod (in Thai) claims that Channel 3 has ordered Thapanee to stop covering the Bangkok rallies and also to delete all her tweets.

Last year, broadcaster Jom Petpradab caused a stir when he interviewed Thaksin on his radio show, coincidentally also on MCOT’s FM 100.5 MHz (see here and here). According to Jom’s own statement (available here), he resigned from his position at MCOT following the incident because “the government [had] placed substantial pressure on [his] coworkers and [he did] not want them to continue to work in fear of government reprisal.”

In this age, muzzling of media is quite a stupid move when the govt don't even have enough political will to see things through. Divide and conquer doesn't work as well as planned because whatever being spewed out from the MSM's are deemed to be the untruths and propagandas.

Thaksin was hard on the newspapers and other medias but he never close any TV stations. That is the difference between Thaksin and Abhisit. Seemed like Abhisit advisors don't talked to each others anymore because all they ever came up were contradicting moves and the reality is, people previously bochup about all these political shenanigans are taking an interest inwhat the govt has to say and comparing them to what is really happening through the alternative medias, and as usual, the govt always comes out short...
