BANGKOK, Oct 7 – The members of the People’s Alliance for Democracy (PAD) — the Yellow Shirt movement — on Thursday attended a religious ceremony at the Thai capital’s Royal Plaza to commemorate the second anniversary of the Oct 7 incidents when two protesters were killed during a clash with police.

The PAD made Buddhist religious merit in the morning’s alms for persons killed in the incident, with all PAD leaders joining the event as well as a leader of the so-called multi-coloured group Dr Tul Sitthisomwong, who led a counter protest against the anti-government Red Shirt demonstrations earlier this year.

Maj-Gen Chamlong Srimuang, a top Yellow Shirt leader, urged the government to give justice to all sides and the dead through the judicial process and to resolve current political problems.
