White+Hat

Put simply: The red shirts were happy with the previous prime minister, Thaksin Shinawatra. But that Prime minister was pulled out of office, accused of abusing power. So now the yellow shirts, mainly upper class citizens, like the new Prime Minister and the Red Shirts, mainly rural and middle class citizens, want a new election so that the old billionaire Prime minister will come back. The Thai economy could be at a cost as well.
