Thai Protesters Launch Bangkok 'Shutdown'

Thai opposition protesters have stepped up their rallies, gathering in thousands in seven major intersections in the capital, in their attempt to "shutdown" of Bangkok to ultimately unseat Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra. The demonstrators want the embattled premier to step down to make way for an appointed government that would oversee electoral reforms to curb the political dominance of her billionaire family and tackle a wider culture of money politics.
