Thai Military Stages Pro-Coup Rally in Bangkok by Steve Herman Several hundred people turned out in Bangkok (Wednesday) for an entertainment-filled event put on by the Thai military, which carried out a bloodless coup on May 22nd. The performance was seen as a way for the public to show support for the army's action and serve as a public relations counterweight to sporadic but illegal rallies protesting the military takeover. VOA Correspondent Steve Herman reports from the Thai capital. __________________________________________________________________ [1]http://www.voanews.com/media/video/1929843.html References 1. http://www.voanews.com/media/video/1929843.html
