At last the streets of Bangkok have returned to normal. No more fighting, rioting or violence. Over the last few days Thailand has been shook as the nation came to the brink of a civil war. However, as of yesterday, it would seem that the days of Thaksin are now over. The Abhisit government has gained creditability from not only the Thais but also from countries around the world. The Prime Minister has proved his ability to be a strong leader even in time of adversity. Let us hope that from this day on Thailand can repair the wounds of the past few days and strive to be a united country.
