The United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship is facing mounting pressure from groups who oppose its planned mobile rally on Saturday to force the government from office.

Time for a breather Border patrol police sent to maintain peace and order during the red shirt rally in Bangkok catch up on some needed rest yesterday at a car park building inside Dusit Zoo. Hundreds of police sleep at the car park building, which also accommodates the vehicles of visitors to the nearby annual Red Cross Fair. CHANAT KATANYU
Twenty-five tourism associations say they will gather tomorrow in front of Lumpini Park in Bangkok and at other popular tourist destinations, including Chiang Mai and Pattaya, to protest against the rally.
The counter-protest is being coordinated by the Federation of Thai Tourism Association as inbound tourism agents start to feel the pinch of the demonstrations on business.
The federation insisted yesterday it was not taking sides but it could not stand still while the country was in limbo.
