15 JANUARY 2014 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: An anti-government protestor stands in the sunroof of her Mercedes Benz and waves Thai flags during an anti-government motorcade in Bangkok. Tens of thousands of Thai anti-government protestors continued to block the streets of Bangkok Wednesday to shut down the Thai capitol. The protest, "Shutdown Bangkok," is expected to last at least a week. Shutdown Bangkok is organized by People's Democratic Reform Committee (PRDC). It's a continuation of protests that started in early November. There have been shootings almost every night at different protests sites around Bangkok. The malls in Bangkok are still open but many other businesses are closed and mass transit is swamped with both protestors and people who had to use mass transit because the roads were blocked.
