a shadow parliament. no no no dear this is the darkest moment of the nation and the moment when the dawn is close this is the time for our citizens to test their resistance against the dark moments. when forming our resistance unity plays a vital role despite our differences in the past this is the time you must direct our hands together to end the dictatorship for good i was there a sudden change i just now live from bangkok in neighboring thailand turney is anybody likely to answer this call for a revolution. well i think that's the big question this is a shadow of civilian government most of whose members are either in exile or in hiding so it's very difficult for them to communicate with each other and other than for posting these kinds of messages on social media to communicate with the public that said this is the government that was elected by a massive majority in november last year and one assumes that they still hold an
