Chavalit warns about dire consequences
Former prime minister Chavalit Yongchaiyudh on Friday said the march by the People's Alliance for Democracy may trigger an uprising unless the government sends out a clear signal to mend fences with opponents.
Should the situation deteriorate into violence, only a coup could restore normalcy, he said.
He said the government has three options to end the political deadlock - dissolve the House for a snap election, resignation by the prime minister and form a new government by bringing in the opposition into the coalition.
